Boss Rt-2 Rotary Ensemble

The Boss RT-2 Rotary Ensemble is a compact pedal that delivers the immersive swirl of a classic rotary speaker cabinet. With powerful BOSS DSP at its core, it recreates the complex movement and modulation of spinning rotors, offering rich, expressive tone in a pedalboard-friendly format.

Three distinct modes cover vintage authenticity and modern spatial textures, while onboard and external control options give you real-time speed changes, brake effects, and dynamic tonal shaping. From subtle shimmer to full-on rotary saturation, the RT-2 is built for creative freedom.

The Boss RT-2 Rotary Ensemble captures the rich, swirling tones of vintage rotary speaker cabinets in a streamlined stompbox. Using advanced BOSS modelling, it recreates the complex interaction of spinning rotors and natural air movement, delivering a full rotary experience that fits easily onto any pedalboard.

Three expressive tone modes

With a three-way mode switch, the RT-2 offers a classic rotary voice alongside two modern variations. You can move from traditional organ-style modulations to wide stereo textures and high-definition, drive-heavy tones—perfect for everything from clean ambient layers to gritty lead work.

Flexible control for dynamic playing

The onboard footswitch offers four operation modes, giving you real-time control over rotor speed and bypass functions. External footswitches or an expression pedal unlock even more options, including brake control and continuous adjustments of level, drive, balance, and speed—ideal for shaping sound on the fly.

Drive and balance with vintage character

The RT-2 includes a dedicated Drive knob for adding warm, tube-style saturation to your signal. A rear-panel switch repurposes this control to balance the treble and bass rotor volumes, letting you fine-tune your tone with precision. All settings are stored automatically, so you can plug in and get playing with ease.
