Features
Dimension Squared
The genuine BOSS and Roland Dimension effect is back, and it�s now
more versatile than ever! Designed in the premium Waza Craft analog
tradition, the DC-2W offers not just a perfect sonic recreation of the
original DC-2 Dimension C pedal, but also the legendary SDD-320
Dimension D studio rack effect it was based on. The DC-2W features the
same intuitive four-button preset interface as the original �80s-era
effects, now evolved with electronic switching that unlocks a multitude
of sonic variations not available on the vintage units.
Highly sought-after by musicians and audio engineers, the Dimension�s
unique spatial processing magically enhances the width and depth of any
sound, from electric and acoustic guitars to keyboards, vocals, and
other sources. Built from the original circuit designs and updated with
modern refinements, the DC-2W is the only pedal available that delivers
the classic Dimension experience with complete sonic authenticity. Enhance Your Sound with Natural Width and DepthThe
vintage Dimension effect is famous for its innovative 3D spatial
processing that just makes everything sound a little better. It�s often
mistakenly called a chorus effect, but it�s actually not. Though
time-based like a chorus, the Dimension�s circuit is quite unique and
sophisticated, subtly enhancing the width and depth of the source audio
without any prominent modulated movement. The resulting sound is more
open and natural, gently enriching any instrument or mix without making
it sound overly processed. Four Switches, Expanded Sonic PossibilitiesJust
like the original Dimension effects, the DC-2W offers a simple and
direct interface with four preset switches that provide sonic variations
with increasing width and depth. While the originals had mechanical
switches, the DC-2W is equipped with modern electronic switches and
status LEDs for more solid performance. The new switches also allow you
to press two at once to access a variety of additional sounds. Across
the DC-2W�s two effect modes (S and SDD-320), 20 different Dimension
variations are possible with just four switches. Authentic Tones with Modern RefinementsIn
the Waza Craft tradition, the DC-2W delivers vintage analog tones with
modern design refinements for enhanced performance and versatility.
Along with the new electronic mode switches, the pedal features a newly
designed internal bypass circuit that greatly improves on that found in
the original DC-2. In addition, versatile I/O enables the pedal to blend
in with any mono or stereo rig, from regular guitar setups to audio
interfaces and studio mixing consoles. And like all Waza Craft pedal
models, the DC-2W includes a premium buffer circuit for
ultra-transparent tone when the pedal is switched off. The Roland SDD-320 Dimension D: A Studio LegendVery
quickly after its debut in 1979, the Roland SDD-320 Dimension D became a
go-to secret weapon for audio engineers and music producers around the
world. It can be heard on countless classic records in all genres, and
is still regularly used today. From guitars, electric pianos, and synths
to strings, backing vocals, and more, the Dimension D injects instant
spatial mojo and sonic glue without creating an obvious �effect� sound.
The DC-2W�s SDD-320 mode fully captures the original Dimension D vibe in
every way. Many engineers like to press multiple buttons on the
Dimension D rack for new and different sounds. But in truth, only two
actual sound variations are technically possible with this undocumented
feature. With its modern switching, the DC-2W�s SDD-320 mode enables six
sound variations when two buttons are pressed, including four
�in-between� sounds and two all-new voices. The BOSS DC-2 Dimension C: 3D Sound in a Compact PedalIntroduced
in 1985, the DC-2 Dimension C pedal brought the Dimension D�s
distinctive spatial effect to the BOSS compact pedal format. While the
Dimension D was designed as a studio effect that supported either mono
or stereo input sources, the DC-2 was specifically created for mono
sources like guitar, and features a modified circuit that produces a
Dimension effect with a slightly different tonal flavor.
When S (Standard) mode is selected, the DC-2W delivers the exact sound
of the original DC-2 pedal. Despite players trying, pressing multiple
buttons on the DC-2 didn�t actually produce any sound variations.
Similar to SDD-320 mode, pressing two buttons at once in the DC-2W�s S
mode provides access to six different �in-between� sounds not available
on the original DC-2. Waza Craft: The Art of Superior ToneSince
the beginning, the engineers at BOSS have been committed to achieving
the finest guitar tones using any technology necessary, from old-school
analog circuits to high-tech DSP. This enthusiastic spirit continues on
with the Waza Craft series, which brings you exceptional tone and touch
response through carefully selected analog components, refined
circuitry, and meticulous attention to detail. In Japan, �Waza� is the
term for art and technique, and these special edition pedals proudly
carry the Waza symbol to represent the pinnacle of BOSS design and
craftsmanship.
