Review: Versatile and Indispensable - The Boss FS-6 Dual Foot Switch is extremely versatile and works for a wide range of applications. I'm a multi-instrumentalist. In my primary band, I play keyboards and saxophones (along with other instruments). For this setup (see photo), I have a block of three FS-6s connected, for a total of six switches. The left three switches are used for sustain on the top, middle, and bottom keyboards. I use the fourth switch to control the rotary effect on organ, which is set to "latch." The final two switches control effects on my saxophone (through a separate FX processor). I also have two additional units which I use for my Roland guitar amp, more keyboard sustains, or whatever else I need at the time. There are several reasons I love these switches. Their extreme flexibility tops the list. Each of the two switches on a single pedal can be hooked up either singly with TS cables, or in tandem with one TRS cable. The switches on the back allow you to change the polarity of each switch, changing it from momentary to latching. When you latch a pedal "on", the LED on that pedal lights. Like most Boss/Roland gear, they're tough and built to last. Finally, the ability to chain them together is fantastic, and makes for a nice, clean setup. There are a couple of cons worth noting. One, they are a bit expensive. In my humble opinion, they are worth every penny, but they represent a healthy investment for something you drop on the floor and step on. Two, they do each require a 9v battery. The good news is, a fresh 9v lasts a really long time in them, especially if you remember to unplug them when not in use. I use rechargeables for all my gig gear, and recharge them before every show, so I can perform without worrying about batteries going out. Overall, these are solid little tools that fit a wide range of situations. You'll never be sorry to have one in your gig bag or studio.
Review: Great Product Works as Designed - As with all Boss / Roland products, the Boss FS-6 performs as designed. I purchased it to control both my Boss ME 20 Multi effects pedal and my Fender Blues Jr amp. The A switch (in non latching mode) allows me to cycle through stored effects banks in my ME 20 and the B switch (in latching mode) allows me engage and disengage the FAT (overdrive) switch on my Blues Jr Amp. Everything works exactly as planned. The FS-6 rugged, compact (fits right into my into ME 20 carrying case) and easy to use. I read a few reviews where people were complaining about batteries...something to complain about. As with most guitar players I don't use batteries in my effects pedals I use an 9 volt AC/DC adapter. Visual Sound offers the "One Spot" AC/DC adapter kit that has a 9 volt battery snap connector adapter. I removed the battery cover, then using a small rat tail file I carefully cut a notch in the battery cover for the snap connector to pass through. I then put rubber feet (purchased at ACE Hardware) on the bottom to allow the snap connector cable...battery problem solved. I also use the FS-6 as a sustain pedal for my Yamaha YPG 225 portable grand piano and a control for my RC-3 Loop Station simultaneously. The possibilities are limited only to your imagination. It is somewhat expensive but it is a Great Product!! If you need a duel switch then I highly recommend purchasing the FS-6.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: which cable should i use to connect this to my rc 505 loop station?**
A: you would use a TRS cable, also known as stereo cable using the center jack, you may want to download there manual from Boss, it shows detailed connection for this unit, Good Luck

**Q: am buying the boss fs-6 for my roland cube 80, what else do I need to order?   thanks**
A: TRS to dual mono cable. You can actually use 2 fs6 pedals if you want to use the echoplex feature.

**Q: Can the pedal help to do the harmonies with the boss acs-pro acoustic singer pro?**
A: yes it can control the looper or effects and harmony on/off. Mode and polarity to the left.

**Q: Why do i have to press the switch 2x to engage the vocal harmonizer on my boss cube street 2? i've tried trs and mono cables but no luck w/ 1 press.**
A: Thanks for the response, Brett. I've tried both ways.Momentary does work the way latching SHOULD work, but doesn't turn on the LED light which I really need.
The HOSA CSS-110R TRS cable I'm using works fine when I use a custom-made footswitch, but I bought the FS-6 specifically for the flexibility of latch / momentary AND for the LED. Thx again.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Plugging in a 1/4" TR/TRS is the on/off switch for necessary 9V battery
*by D***E on June 19, 2024*

This pedal is unquestionably road-worthy built in a sturdy aluminum case with clear LEDs indicating when it is on and when a pedal is activated. I took a star away for two reasons. 1) If you forget to unplug it from your instrument, it's using battery power. Plugging your 1/4" TRS/TS cable in IS the power switch. Second, there are four switches on the back (2 each pedal) to control polarity and momentary vs toggle. While the metal overhangs these, if you gig and handle the pedal frequently, you may want to cover these with gaffers tape or something to ensure you're not surprised when you are in the middle of a set. Lastly, I have a Nord Stage 4 and found that pedal A on the left is pedal 2 in the keyboard, and vice versa. I don't think that's either manufacturer's problem, just a difference of design where they've assumed the tip is one pedal and ring for the other.. I use mine for moving up/down through programs/patches, and up was initially on the left when I assigned it to pedal 1 in the Nord. No big deal once you reverse them, just noting it.
