Boss RE-2 Space Echo Compact Pedal

A Masterpiece Returns in the Modern Era

Introduced in 1974, the Roland RE-201 Space Echo stands among the most legendary and sought-after effect units ever produced. Iits distinctive rhythmic echo sounds, warm character, and highly playable sonic quirks still inspire musicians, producers, and audio mixers over four decades on. With the RE-2, the authentic sound and behavior of the Space Echo is now available in the famous BOSS compact series for the first time. Backed by intensive R&D and BOSS' latest innovations, the RE-2 faithfully delivers the coveted magic of the RE-201 in a pedalboard-friendly footprint. In developing the RE-2, BOSS engineers carefully analyzed several vintage RE-201s, including a pristine original unit from the BOSS and Roland factory archive, and fully reproduced all the complex, non-linear behaviors that contribute to the RE-201’s immortal character. Everything that influences the sound has been recreated with all-new algorithms, including the tape path, record/playback mechanism, motor variations, preamp coloration, spring reverb character, and more.

At Riffs & Licks Music, we think the Boss RE-2 Space Echo Compact Pedal will appeal to any Space Echo fan, with its true-to-original tone and compact form.
