Like all Boss products, particularly their pedals, built like a tank! Appreciate the versatile output jacks and the switching indicator lights. Small footprint works great in my application. A bit pricey, but peace of mind by trusting the quality present is worth the expense. Highly recommend this series of footswitches - can't be beat!!

Really these pedals are kind of like an old reliable blanket. When you're cold. It keeps you warm and when you're warm you kick that son of a gun to the floor but it stays together. Yep, that's pretty much it.

Style: Unlatch Footswitch
I've been working on a personal music electronics project for months. It requires a non-latching (doesn't toggle between "on" and "off" positions with each click), momentary (only goes "on" [that's a "normally open/off" switch] or "off" [that's a "normally closed/on" switch] when you push the pedal) footswitch. I have now looked at and/or actually tested/used three different brands of such footswitches: Philmore 30-17090; Hosa FSC-502 and Boss FS-5U. All the makers have different versions of the same switch ... if you know you need a "momentary" switch, then you have to find out if the type you need is "normally open/off" or "normally closed/on." As explained below, the Boss switch eliminates that problem. The Philmore switch is the cheapest pre-fab switch I could find "out there," and comes with a basic 1/4 inch cable pre-installed. It "works," but it's like a noisy little tin can, and the guts of it are just too crude to really work effectively/consistently with any modern digital music devices. I couldn't get it to work properly/consistently with my project ... this switch is really designed for analog control of lights, ham radio mic/audio, etc. The Hosa switch is "OK," also comes with a pre-installed cable, and SHOULD work, but it's basically a glorified version of the Philmore device, designed/made a little better for use with digital music devices ... that is, the internal circuitry is better designed for that function. Then there's the Boss switch, which doesn't come with a pre-installed cable ... you'll have to provide your own. I've already been using two of these switches for years, as a controller for an Alesis SR-16 drum machine. One switch for "on/off," the second for switching between "A" and "B" patterns. They've worked so great for that purpose, I NEVER had a switch-related problem until one of them finally became so worn/glitchy that I had to replace it. That took about 10 years of regular (more than weekly) use. Inside and out, Boss is the best such device out there. The case is thick, solid aluminum with a hard rubber base, and is basically bombproof. It has modular grooves on the right and left sides that allow you to lock multiple units side-by-side, and create a "bank" of as many separate switches as you want/need. The pedal is firm and the switch action is QUIET. The design that transfers the heavier action of the pedal to the more fragile/delicate internal circuit-board push-button is the best I've seen, and the internal circuitry is specifically designed to properly interface with the highly sensitive circuitry of digital music equipment. Unlike the other two, the Boss pedal can also function as EITHER a "normally on/closed" OR "normally off/open" switch, by use of a toggle switch mounted next to the 1/4 inch input jack. This switch is simply labeled "polarity," but what it actually does is change the way the switch operates ... from "normally off/open" to "normally on/closed," and back again, so you know this one switch can easily be made to work with either type of input ... no experimenting with different model numbers. In sum, if you know you need a "momentary" footswitch, spend the extra money and buy the Boss. It's the best-designed, most durable and most reliable option out there for the price, and it will save you a lot of headaches in the long run.

I was very surprised about the size of this switch. It's not much bigger than a regular Boss pedal. Despite the small size, the two buttons are pretty big and it's easy to hit one and not the other. I use this as a foot controller for a Boss RC-5, but I'm sure there are a lot of other pedals you can use this with. Like all Boss pedals, this thing is very sturdy and I have no qualms about stomping on it. Be sure to use a TRS cable, a standard instrument cable/patch cable is only TS and it won't work right.

It's been a couple of days since I've gotten my hands on this. I didn't have a chance to use it with both of its switches, since the Hosa TRS cable I ordered has not arrived yet. I'm using this with Roland Cube 40XL, especially for the looper. This pedal is really sturdy, in fact it is so sturdy that I find it hard to press in home with my bare feet lol (maybe would be easier to press with shoes/on stage), and I sometimes find myself spending tens of minutes for trying to loop just one phrase. You need to have a really good sense of rhythm to use this for the looper, as Cube 40XL's looper's playing detector that starts recording when you start playing DOES NOT engage when you use the pedal, you need to start playing as soon as you press the pedal (you still can start the looper from the amp itself). Yet, when you do get used to it, it makes wonders. It's also annoying that you have to unplug EVERY cable that's plugged in it to prevent power consumption, which can only be supplied with a 9v battery; another reason for down rating. I recommend this because it is an all-purpose device with latch/unlatch and polarity options, but if you're going to buy this for a Roland Cube, you'd better convince yourself that you really love music and have the time and patience for it, since this is a bit overpriced and MAY(not if you have a really good sense of rhythm) require you to re-record your phrases for the "perfect loop" time after time. EDIT: My cable has arrived, and I've changed my opinion about this pedal. You will still need a sense of rhythm for using this with the looper of a Cube XL amp, but only as much as an average music person would, no more. I was annoyed earlier because I should not have switched the B pedal (the one for engaging the looper) to the "unlatched" mode; it needs to be in the latch mode, and your amp should be in the latch mode as well (to do that, you turn off your amp and press and hold the tap/stop button near your looper while opening your amp again). After doing this, it will be very easy to engage and disengage looper. Keep your A pedal in unlatched mode, since if it is in latch mode it will not only stop the loop, but delete it as well, acting as if you're pressing and holding the tap/stop button on the amp; whereas if you keep it in unlatched, it will stop the loop if you just press it, and remove the loop if you hold it. With this setting on your pedal and your Cube XL amp, and a good guitar and a wah pedal of your preference, you just can't go wrong. You will be all set for rockin' out. Also, note that I only reviewed this item for use with a Cube amp, whereas this is an all-purpose item which you probably can use with hundreds of other items, such as keyboards, other amps, processors, etc. And the absence of a power adapter is unnecessary as the battery is only used for powering up the LED lights which you won't really need. I didn't try it without the battery but I read it in a comment in reply to another comment above on this page. Quote: "Now, with regards to the battery - it is only used to power the LED Indicator...! It is not necessary, or required for foot switch operation. As such it lasts a very long time."
