BOSS XS-100 Poly Shifter
Flagship Dynamic Pitch Expression Pedal for Professional Musicians
The BOSS XS-100 Poly Shifter gives guitarists and bassists precise, natural-sounding pitch control for live performance, recording, and creative sound design. Advanced BOSS processing preserves the attack and character of your instrument while producing clear results with single notes, sustained tones, and complex chords.
Use the smooth onboard expression pedal to shift pitch up or down by as much as four octaves. Fixed semitone settings across an eight-octave range make it easy to create drop tunings, capo-style changes, dramatic octave effects, and experimental textures without changing instruments.
BOSS XS-100 Poly Shifter – Comprehensive Feature Overview
Key Features
Natural Polyphonic Performance
Advanced BOSS algorithms retain your instrument's attack and tonal character while keeping chords, sustained notes, and lead tones clear.
Wide-Range Expression Control
The smooth onboard pedal provides linear pitch control from four octaves down to four octaves up.
Instant Retuning
Fixed semitone settings across an eight-octave range support drop tunings, capo-style changes, octave effects, and experimental sounds.
Customizable Performance
Adjust the pedal curve, response, pitch range, and rise/fall times, and assign alternate functions to the toe switch and footswitches.
30 Onboard Memories
Save complete setups and recall them quickly during live sets, rehearsals, or studio sessions.
Professional Connectivity
TRS MIDI I/O, external control support, a dedicated analog Thru output, and USB Type-C make integration easy.
Total Pitch Control
Create smooth pitch glides, fast jumps, dive-bomb effects, instant retuning, and unusual sound effects directly from the pedal. Independent pitch-change speeds for upward and downward movement provide additional expression. The integrated toe switch can also trigger momentary pitch changes with an adjustable range and transition time.
Customize, Save, and Recall
Adjust the pitch range and pedal response to suit a song or playing technique, then assign the toe switch and footswitches to the functions you use most. A detune range of +/-50 cents creates rich doubling effects, while 30 onboard memories keep favorite configurations ready for immediate recall.
Flexible Rig Integration
TRS MIDI input and output let the XS-100 receive external control messages and send commands from its pedal and footswitches. Connect up to two external footswitches or an expression pedal for additional real-time control. The dedicated Thru jack mirrors the input signal for parallel amplifier, recording, or effects routing.
