Main Features
● A high-performance guitar amp equipped with a 30-cm (12-inch) speaker and delivering 80 watts of output
● Switchable between two-channels: JC CLEAN and LEAD
Switchable using a footswitch pedal (optional BOSS FS-6, FS-5U, or FS-5L).
● Ten types of COSM amplifiers (p. 6, p. 7)
A total of ten COSM amp types are built in, including a clean amp for the JC CLEAN channel and acoustic, crunch, high-gain, and the
original Dyna Amp for the LEAD channel.
Dyna Amp lets you achieve unprecedented tonal change and new expressiveness by varying your picking dynamics.
COSM (Composite Object Sound Modeling) is proprietary Roland modeling technology, which analyzes the way in which sound is
affected by elements such as electronic circuitry, structure, and materials, and combines these elements to reconstruct the desired
sound.
● SOLO function (p. 8, p. 16)
This lets you save and call up panel settings for tones you create with the LEAD channel, including amp type, gain, equalizer, and
effects. You can also manipulate these using a footswitch pedal (the optional BOSS FS-6, FS-5U, or FS-5L), letting you put them to use
in live performances.
● LOOPER function (p. 9, p. 17)
This lets you record, play back, and overdub a phrase you play to create your own loop phrase, enabling you to enjoy playing along
with the recorded loop phrase.
You can also manipulate this using a footswitch pedal (the optional BOSS FS-6, FS-5U, or FS-5L).
* The maximum recording time is approximately 40 seconds.
● Tuner function (p. 6, p. 19)
An easy-to-operate tuner is built in. This even supports flat tuning and seven-string guitars.
Chromatic tuning is possible, too.
● Independently operable delay and reverb (p. 9)
The unit is equipped with a DELAY knob and a REVERB knob. These let you control delay and reverb independently.
● Delay time adjustable through TAP input
You can also enter a short delay (30 to 90 ms) by giving the TAP switch a long press.
● Spring reverb modeling
Modeling technology replicates a spring reverb with realistic fidelity.
● Four types of easy-to-operate effects (p. 8)
Four types of effects — chorus, flanger, phaser, and tremolo — are built in, allowing easy operation with a single control.
● RECORDING OUT jack (p. 15)
The unit features a RECORDING OUT jack for connecting recording equipment. You can also use this as a headphone jack.
● AUX IN jack (p. 15)
You can use this to connect and play along with an MP3 or CD player.
