DM-2

A longtime player’s favorite, the DM-2 was the first BOSS analog delay in the compact pedal lineup. Its retro BBD circuit delivers dark delays that become more saturated with each repeat, producing organic ambience that blends beautifully with the unprocessed sound. Turning up the Intensity knob drives the effect into gritty self-oscillation for expressive textures.

NOTE

This effect must be purchased separately for use. Use the “BOSS EFFECT LOADER” app (iOS/Android) to purchase this effect.
