Because the IR-2 Amp and Cabinet Pedal is a powerful and high-quality product from the reputable brand, Boss, it offers musicians the ability to recreate the inspiring sounds of classic tube amps and mic'd speaker cabinets in a compact, stompbox format. This innovative pedal is perfect for quiet stages, fly dates, recording gigs, and practice sessions, providing easy access to studio-grade tones.
Leveraging decades of Boss's tone expertise, the IR-2 Amp and Cabinet Pedal delivers the same expressive nuance and dynamic touch response as a real amp and cabinet. It boasts top-notch audio quality, thanks to advanced DSP, 32-bit floating point processing, and a 96 kHz sampling rate.
The IR-2 Amp and Cabinet Pedal offers a range of inspiring tones for every style. With eleven solid platforms, it covers every guitar amp flavor, from famous tube combos to vintage and modern stacks. It also features several original BOSS amps, including a high-gain Brown type derived from the Katana series. All amps are paired with curated Celestion Digital IRs for quick and polished sound creation.
The IR-2 Amp and Cabinet Pedal is designed for immediate sound creation. Its intuitive interface allows you to select an amp type and tweak the sound with familiar amp-style controls. You can add natural spaciousness and depth to your sound by adjusting the Ambience knob. The pedal also supports the use of cab IRs from your own collection, which can be loaded via USB-C and a dedicated app.
The IR-2 Amp and Cabinet Pedal is a versatile addition to your pedalboard, providing a complete guitar sound solution wherever you play. It supports audio playback from a computer or mobile device via USB-C, allowing you to jam with songs from your music library and follow along with lessons from YouTube and other sources.
For stage performances, the IR-2 Amp and Cabinet Pedal takes the guesswork out of achieving great stage sound, delivering consistent tones in every venue. It also allows you to toggle between two IR-2 amp/cab setups with the pedal switch or an external footswitch.
For recording purposes, the IR-2 Amp and Cabinet Pedal's USB-C connector sends the sound of your complete rig directly to music recording software. It allows you to add tracks to full productions in a computer DAW or capture inspiration on the move by plugging into your smartphone. With the IR-2 Amp and Cabinet Pedal, you can monitor audio from the pedal and your software through headphones, eliminating the need for a separate audio interface.
