Boss IR-2 demo and review: this is Genius!

Great demo of the BOSS IR-2. Among the videos I have watched, you are the only one who have demonstrated the power of using the stereo function of the Send/Return loop of this pedal. BOSS did not even show this in any of their videos AFAIK. This is a feature that I have long been waiting for in an IR pedal. Congratulations!!!

[@LeoGibsonGtr]

Thank you so much, I'm really happy that you have appreciated the video!!!

[@herbervalencia3401]

BOSS ME80 was my last buy from BOSS. Now this BOSS IR2 sounds & is the best Amp Cab Pedal on the market. Good job BOSS.

I love that boss added the features lacking from UAFX and others - headphones, effects loop and DAW interface. What a powerful compact pedal. I'm excited to see how the competition responds. I was going to buy a Two Notes Opus and UAFX Lion, but I think I will pass on both in favor of the IR 2.

[@LeoGibsonGtr]

Hi, thank you for sharing!

[@harrisbeatsfrankou6304]

Agree, without an effects loop it is a waste of time and money. Leo go me onto amp academy but I got a Lemon and sent it back. I use two Joyos, have a sans amp but I think this is my next amp for recording and gigging.

[@NZ1one1]

I need one of these, I get home from work at 2 am or later, and I always want to play guitar when I get home, but people are sleeping, so I can't play... the headphone jack on this pedal would be perfect for late night jamming.

Great review and performance. I am awestruck! Boss is amazing; I doubt I'll need this since I already have a GT-1000Core and a Helix Stomp which for me is modeling overkill (not to mention an Ampero 2 Stomp and a GP-200LT) all for a nylon string Flamenco guitar. Your reviews save me much research pain and time learning about all of this that I never had before. I am 83 and won't be around for too much longer, but all you lucky kids have access to tones never available in my growing years... (and, of course, Flamenco uses very different techniques than electric or even acoustic guitar). That said, there is good and bad news (about music, but also applies to politics in the US) First the good news: The tools of production are at last in the hands of the proletariat. Then the bad news : The tools of production are at last in the hands of the proletariat. :)

[@LeoGibsonGtr]

[@LeoGibsonGtr]

Thank you so much!!! I'm happy that you like the song and the vocals!!!

[@plunkpunk9217]

You’re one of the few that highlights the positioning of the fx loop return (after cab but before reverb). That will be perfect if you have a looper last in your fx loop and wanna make use of the loopers drums or add vocals or piano via the loopers inputs. They won’t be affected by the cab sim which is great. Of course the reverb might have to be toned down in those cases or add a reverb pedal only for guitar just before the looper. So no extra gear needed to implement other instruments if you’re a solo looping artist. The IR2 is the base for everything. Or do I miss something?

[@LeoGibsonGtr]

Than you! Yes, I do agree....the fx loop is very useful!

[@ricardoraulino-guitar]

Great review, Leo! As usual! How do you think this VOX AC30 IR would compare to the UAFX Ruby? Thanks!

[@LeoGibsonGtr]

I am really enjoying all the hype above this great pedal. As a GT1000 owner I coudn’t adapt to other pedals like tonex, kemper, Headrush, helix and fractal for feeling better with the GT (faster response and tube-like dinamics as no other) and kept wondering why most users don’t bother the Boss units. Maybe its a game changer for Boss corp.

Excellent demo. But why are people freaking out over it vs the 200 that has been around for years. Isn’t it the same device in a scraped version? Besides that the ir-200 has midi and that the usb is a better c on the ir-2 vs a usb mini on the ir-200? I don’t have any of them yet but just confused. So if anyone can clarify 👍🏼🎸

[@LeoGibsonGtr]

HI, maybe I will make a video with all the differences between the two devices. Of course the form factor, the weight and the price are pretty important aspects (in my opinion) to take into consideration. Thank you for your message

[@lirojhonson]

Thanks Leo for your amazing videos! One question not easy to find the answer online, This boss IR-2 do not have a low / high cuts options like other bigger units, is that an issue to use it on stage(fletcher manson effect...) ? I am always wonder if it s actually needed Low High cuts if using IRs, as they are already supposed to cut frequencies similar to a cabinet would do,...thanks for sharing your thoughts about it!

[@LeoGibsonGtr]

Hi, interesting topic. I don't have a "black or white" answer, but I think that if you go straight into the mixing desk, you can apply eq in the mixing desk itself (if needed). Actually some eq should be applied in any case, in order to fit the guitar tone with all the other instruments.... Thanks

[@lirojhonson]

​@@LeoGibsonGtr Thanks for your answer, thats very true, if playing in some venue with mixing desk normally the sound guy should do this LPF HPF for guitar and bass, sometimes in small venues that is not the case tho, and for monitoring can eventually be an issue too, imho the main things of amp sims that ppl complain about are 1 the tone (this in 2024 is very solved I think even unexpensive units with some twicking can have a very usable nice tone), 2 the feeling, (I think when ppl say sims do not feels like an valve amp, 95 % of what they don't feel is related to latency and your channels seems to be the only one who put focus on that🙌) and 3) the tone is not reliable when passing from room/studio to live gig volume. Normally a parametric eq with LPF HPF should solve that last issue and just big units or just a few small ones have that. Thanks for your channel I learned a lot

[@Viks021]

Great review, thank you. Did you noticed any latency? Also small correction: DIAMOND model is AC30.

Is the usb c interface class compliant? Need to hook it up with my iPad. If it is hey I can now practice my guitar after workout in gym.

Wow, this intro is awesome. The pedal looks good too. Is the quality of the amps and cabs the same as the IR200 but with a reduced number of opti0ns or is there a sound quality compromise (to me it sounded great anyway, specially at your hands).

Thank you so much, I'm really happy that you like the into!!!! To me it sounds the same...please notice that in the IR2 you have 11 guitar amps, where in the IR 200 you have 8 guitar amps and 3 bass amps. Thank you!

Ha Leo, nice video as always. Can I ask you what type of pedalboard you are using? That one with the big level meter?

[@LeoGibsonGtr]

Hi, it is a Vangoa: here you can find more info: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nGqalWxnZ6uEqM0 Thank you!

Leo can can you make a vs with the boss ir2 and the two notes cab m+ or opus?

[@LeoGibsonGtr]

Hi, thank you for your suggestion! I'm receiving a lot of request of comparisons: vs the Iridium, vs the UAFX, vs the Opus, vs the Amp Academy.... 😀...I have to decide which one to do...

Best song in a product demo video at the start!

Thank you for such an amazing compliment!!! I'm really happy that you like the song!!!

[@strangelet4588]

My only gripe is that you have a Soldano on the floor under a couple other amps. ;) Great demo, great playing!
