A Universe of Musical Colors
Since 1977, BOSS compact pedals have inspired generations of musicians around the world. Over 140 unique models have been produced, over 19 million units have been sold, and many have remained in non-stop production for decades. From vintage classics and go-to workhorses to rare and specialty effects, the PX-1 puts the diverse BOSS compact pedal… read more range at your command.Authentic Recreations
Backed by newly developed BOSS algorithms, each effect in the PX-1 delivers the authentic sound and response of the pedal it's based on. Every detail is modeled with stunning accuracy, thanks to a powerful DSP engine dedicated to recreating the sound of a single effect at a time. Dial in tones fast with the familiar knob interface you're used to with BOSS compacts, supported by an onboard display for current parameters and internal settings.Modern Flexibility
The PX-1 supports external control with one or two footswitches or an expression pedal. Use the Swap function to switch between two effects. Or assign nearly any parameter for real-time expressive control while performing. Stereo I/O provides flexible connectivity and enhanced sound for models that support stereo operation, while tap tempo and MIDI clock sync help you get the most out of time-based effects.Core Effects
The PX-1's permanent library features eight famous BOSS pedals, including the three models from the 1977 debut and iconic drive pedals like the DS-1 and SD-1. Every model has a "1" designation, indicating that it's the first of its type within the BOSS timeline.Specs

"Some of the greatest Inventions have been some of the most controversial."
I was skeptical of this pedal. Setup at first was buggy. But after stacking it against Waza versions. Original versions etc. I’m convinced this is a valuable tool. For those of us with little money to spare sometimes the $9.99 for a new pedal is welcomed. Playing in a live setting I found little discernible difference between the original analog effects. Slight adjustments remedied any difference. I only cycled the 16 effects. Don’t follow the crowd. Get one! Love this boss pedal. Value!
Sound
Sound is incredible.
Features
Smoothness of Bluetooth/USB to app to pedal needs to be improved.
Ease of Use
Out of the box 8. After figuring out Bluetooth 16. Need DM-2. VT-1 plugin would be cool too.
Quality

Value
Absolute value.
The Wow Factor
Probably more valuable at the desktop. But on the board you can get unobtainable boss sounds.
