Boss Dynamic Filter FT-2
THE FT-2 CHANGES CUTOFF FREQUENCIES DEPENDING ON ATTACK CREATING A "WOW" EFFECT. AN EXPRESSION PEDAL INPUT JACK ALLOWS A USER TO CONTROL THE FILTERING IN REAL TIME FOR ADDED FEEL. THIS PEDAL IS A VIABLE ALTERNATIVE TO THE MUTRON PEDAL IF PHASING IS NOT NEEDED. CONTROLS INCLUDE SENSITIVITY, CUTOFF FREQUENCY, Q AND DOWN/UP OR MANUAL EXPRESSION.
User Reviews of the Boss Dynamic Filter FT-2:
Submitted by K. from Sealy, TX (380 points) on May 14, 2002:
A static filter similar to the DOD FX25 with as good a range thanks to the mode switch, but lacking the DOD's depth (really the same as the Boss Auto Wah, just without the oscillator.). A nice feature is the exp. in jack which allows control of the filter w/ an expression pedal, which is initially why I bought it (attempt to use a single pedal w/ both the Dynamic Filter and PS-3, w/ mixed results). I now mainly use it as a tone shaping device following a Boss Bass EQ to either sharpen up a signal muddied by the EQ or squeeze an extra bit of bass out of the sound. Out of production for years, they're becoming more difficult to find at reasonable prices.
Good Points: Boss reliability, great for shaping tone
Bad Points: Not quite as versatile as some other filters, becoming scarce and increasing in price
Price Paid: US$0.00
Purchased At: Don't recall price or location
