BOSS PC-2 Percussion Synthesizer

via this auction.

Details:
"This item is slightly larger that a standard Boss guitar pedal, and makes some very cool electro bloop and bleep type percussive sounds. There is an LFO with both depth and rate, a pitch control, sweep control, decay and sensitivity controls. Very versatile for its size. You can tap or hit the blue pad, or there is an input jack in the back that can be used to trigger the unit as well. I've used my guitar to trigger some pretty bizarre laser gun sounds. Very cool and unusual pedal."

  3. Anonymous #1, I'm fairly certain Boss originally created the PC-2, then licensed it to Amdek. Correct me if wrong, of course.

    Anonymous, the PC-2 doesn't suck, IMVHO.

  4. Roland owned Amdek.
    It was their brand name.
    Later Amdek was sold as a computer monitor maker only.
    Roland then developed Roland DG to fill the gap and repackaged some Amdek musical products as Roland only.

  5. Heh, nicely done Anonymous #1 (or is that Anonymous #3?)

    Wonder if the fine folks over at BossArea are as familiar w/ Amdek+Roland lineage.
