Boss RE-2 Space Echo Emulation Compact Pedal Speculation Thread

not to sample snitch but what song is being played here? I recognize it as a classic boogie funk or R&B jam

Now i need a comparison vid between strymon’s Deco, volante, Boss and the new

It sounds like a boogie funk track. It’s in my head too. One day I will be at a coffee shop and hear it and reply back to the thread because I’m silly like that.

Now that I think about it, I think the progression recalls Shalamar’s “A Night To Remember.” That’s it right? Sounds so good synthed up

FYI : separate (currently) 202 topic here …

Ha - we both had thoughts about the same thing but approached it from opposite angles

If the consensus is to merge then it can definitely happen, it’s already been requested - just unaware if the devices are sufficiently different to need both topics or if there’s any reason to avoid duplication.

Thanks. I did search Boss re 202, nothing showed up. Can delete my posts if theyre irrelevant.

For whatever it might be worth, I think it does warrant 2 topics to be honest, but trying to pick apart the 202 stuff from here could be a tricky task.

Personally I would merge them. I started the RE2 topic before 202 was announced, but they’re very similar. The 202 is just larger, has two extra foot switches, gives line level option, control of the saturation setting, presets, and extra reverb modes - otherwise they’re the same, as far as I know. They’re re written from the ground up supposedly, not based on re-20 at all.

They should name every genre of music after the drugs you take to listen to them…

Here’s a demo of the RE-2 with Synths (MEGAfm and SH-01a. Maybe you find it useful.
