BS-1
Control your BOSS pedal from the top of it, not from beside it.
The BS-1 Footswitch gives you external control over your BOSS pedal without giving up a single inch of pedalboard space. Designed to sit directly on top of the pedal it controls, the BS-1 puts the switch exactly where your foot already is.
Choose your switch type:
- BS-1L (Latching) — for the BOSS Angry Driver JB-2, where the remote jack toggles between channels and needs to stay where you put it. As far as we know, that’s currently the only BOSS pedal that uses latching switch
-
BS-1M (Momentary) — for time-based or loop pedals like the BOSS DD-8 Digital Delay and BOSS RC-5 Loop Station, where tap tempo needs a switch that springs back. Also compatible with the following:
BOSS DD-7, DD-5, RC-1, RC-2, RC-3, PH-3, RE-2, SL-2, AW-3
Key Features:
- Space-Saving Design - Mounts right on top of your BOSS pedal, preserving pedalboard real estate.
- Matched to the Pedal - Two switch types, so the action matches what the host pedal actually expects.
- Plug-and-Play Setup - No complicated installation. Just plug it in and go.
- Built to Perform - Crafted from durable, high-quality materials to endure heavy gig use and studio sessions.
- Compact & Lightweight - Adds control without adding weight or bulk to your rig.
Technical Features:
- Latching or momentary switch, selected by variant
- Normally closed switches
- Mogami W2314 cables
- Squareplugs SP400 connectors
- Designed to attach securely onto BOSS compact pedals
- No modifications to the pedal
- No extra tools necessary
Zero footprint.
Full control.
Your pedal already earned its place. This switch gives it external control without asking for another inch of board — it just sits on top and gets to work.
Three parts. No tools.
Mounts on top
Fixes straight onto the host enclosure with the hardware in the box. Nothing permanent, nothing drilled.
Zero board space
It lives on the pedal it controls, so you get a real external switch and give up exactly none of your board.
Gig-ready
3PDT latching, hand-soldered, Mogami cable with Squareplug ends. Built to be stepped on for years.
