Roland Announces BOSS Effects Pedals Plug-In
Roland announces the BOSS Effects Pedals plug-in, the latest classic software effect available on Roland Cloud. Since debuting in 1977, the colorful BOSS compact pedal lineup has been loved by generations of musicians. The BOSS Effects Pedals plug-in brings the authentic BOSS compact pedal experience to computer music production for the first time, delivering premium processing for guitar, bass, keyboards, vocals, and beyond.
BOSS, Roland’s guitar products division, is well known for its expansive lineup of compact pedals. They’re used by everyone from beginners to professionals, and numerous legends have relied on various models for their signature sounds and the creation of the greatest recordings of all time. To date, over 140 unique BOSS compact pedal models have been produced, well over 19 million units have been sold, and many have remained in continuous production for decades.
The BOSS Effects Pedals plug-in can be loaded with one effect at a time from an onboard library. Each delivers the genuine sound and response of the pedal it’s based on, faithfully recreated by the same company that developed the original designs. The friendly interface mirrors the simple operation of the hardware, providing fast access to great tones. Extended features are also available, including input and output controls for dialing in levels and tempo sync for time-based effects.
The initial launch of the BOSS Effects Pedals plug-in features eight of the most famous BOSS pedals: the OD-1 OverDrive, PH-1 Phaser, SP-1 Spectrum, SG-1 Slow Gear, CS-1 Compression Sustainer, TW-1 T Wah, SD-1 SUPER OverDrive, and DS-1 Distortion. Over time, the core library will be populated with an ever-expanding selection of models derived from the historic hardware lineup.
The BOSS Effects Pedals plug-in is available with Roland Cloud Ultimate membership, which users can try for free with a 30-day all-access trial. Signing up for a free Roland Account provides access to a function-limited demo version for evaluating the plug-in without signing up for membership.
Roland Cloud is also home to a universe of creative tools for computer-based music production, including JC-120 Jazz Chorus and RE-201 Space Echo plug-ins, software versions of vintage Roland instruments, ZENOLOGY, Sound Packs, Wave Expansions, GALAXIAS, Zenbeats, and much more.
