Boss re-202 - post honeymoon

This is the best damned delay ever.

Boss knows delay.

I tried to play my skrecho today, and it sounded like pure ambient soup in an annoying way. I put the re202 back in acter like three minutes.

The boss is just tuned so nicely. It compresses and ducks just right. I almost didn’t want to keep the boss upon first playing, but now I can’t quit this masterpiece.

Fwiw, if you like “this will destroy you”, this is jeremy galindo in a box. (Fwiw, he has been playing an re20 for over a decade)

I'm curious how you'd feel about the Eventide H90 delays/reverb. Instant post rock king status from my experience.

I still love my Skrecho but it's hardly been used since I got the H90.

Funny you mention Eventide after I mentioned TWDY. One guy used the RE-20 while the other guy used the Eventide Space.


Personally, I'm biased against Eventide. I won't get into it, but I was disappointed by the Black Hole and the Rose delay.

That doesn't mean the Space and H90 don't sound badass, I just can't get back into Eventide. :(

Back to the Skrecho; I have always LOVED mine, but the Boss RE202 just sounds so freakin good. I couldn't plug it back in fast enough. I'm not even playing my EAE Sending Analog ATM. The Boss is that good.

Understandable. The H90 is next level compared to all of their previous offerings in both sound quality, range of effects (includes all of the previous algorithms plus new ones), and ease of use but if you're not in to the brand then you're not in to it.

Interesting to hear the RE202 has you shelving your Skrecho. Maybe I need to go try the Boss.
