The DR-01S Rhythm Partner is more than just a rhythm machine. It allows you to layer up to seven instruments together to create unique rhythms, and save up to 50 favorites for later recall. Adjusting volume, tempo, and time signature is a breeze, and you can even add a count-in before the rhythm starts or fade out grooves for polished song endings.

This rhythm partner boasts a wide range of authentic acoustic percussion sounds, including shakers, maracas, tambourines, congas, bongos, bells, cajon, and more. It even includes a full drum kit with acoustic and electronic sounds, perfect for adding a rock element to your acoustic jams.

The DR-01S Rhythm Partner is a product of BOSS's acclaimed rhythm machine and sound development history, ensuring high-quality and expressive grooves for any unplugged style. Its compact design features an integrated audio system that produces warm, full sound, thanks to BOSS's advanced approach combining an innovative cabinet design, custom speaker, and a high-efficiency amplifier.

For stage performances, simply connect the line out into your acoustic amp or PA system. For hands-free control, connect one or two optional footswitches to perform operations while keeping both hands on your instrument. With a variety of assignable functions, including start/stop, tempo up/down, tap tempo, pattern variation, and more, the DR-01S Rhythm Partner is the perfect rhythm partner for unplugged music.
