Roland RE-2

The BOSS RE-2 Space Echo faithfully captures the iconic sound and behavior of the legendary Roland RE-201 Space Echo in a compact pedal format. Designed with meticulous detail and advanced algorithms, the RE-2 delivers the warm, rhythmic echo and lush spring reverb of the original, complete with its signature three-head tape configuration and 11 selectable sound combinations.

Enhanced with modern features, the RE-2 offers tap tempo, expanded delay time, and the expressive Wow & Flutter control to recreate the organic tape modulation that defined the original. A Twist effect adds dramatic sweeps, while stereo I/O and options for external control bring its vintage magic into modern rigs. Whether on stage or in the studio, the BOSS RE-2 Space Echo delivers the authentic, spacey echoes that have inspired musicians for generations.
