BOSS offers two types of sturdy metal footswitches for different applications. The FS-5U (silver) is a momentary "unlatch"-type footswitch, and the FS-5L (black) is a latch-type footswitch with an LED to indicate status. Both footswitches can be connected using ordinary guitar cables. Please consult your owner's manual for compatibility.

Review: Solid pedal - Great solid pedal from Boss,and easy to set up and use, I bought this pedal to go with my Boss RC 1 loop Station guitar pedal and it works great, would recommend 5\5
Review: Versatile extra foot switch. - Versatile extra pedal for Boss multi-effects units. I bought this to use with an Ableton Push controller to trigger recording and it does exactly what it's supposed to. I have also used it with an RC2 loop pedal and GP-10 guitar modeller. Solidly built - which I've come to expect from Boss pedals.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this work with a dd3 delay pedal?**
A: I use it with a DD7 and it works perfectly. I would imagine it would be the same for a DD3. It also has a polarity switch on it so if it doesn't seem to work in the initial switch position, changing the switch to the opposite polarity may fix it. Good luck!

**Q: I just purchased a boss rc-3 loop station.  why would i connect two fs-5u external footswitches?**
A: I have the same combination with just one FS-5U and use it as a stop/clear switch , 1 press to stop , 1 press and hold to clear

**Q: I have a Boss DD-7. So this pedal is useful just for tap tempo (which I can do with the unit itself)?**
A: Hi Javier. I also have a Boss DD-7. The FS-5U is use full. You just have to plug it in and you're ready. If u use de pedal itself, u have to hold it in first prior to use the tap tempo, bit with the FS-5U.. U don't have to. It's good for dotted 8 notes. I'm enjoying mine

**Q: Can this be used with the Boss RC-3 Loop Pedal? A footswitch like this makes it much easier to accurately time the end of the loop...?**
A: Yes it can be used with the RC-3....I also bought a second pedal FS-5U to increase/decrease the saved loops.  Works like a charm... YouTube the RC-3 and you will find these being used and how to use with the RC-3.  You will also have to purchase an additional 2 XLR to 1 cord in conjunction to having 2 foot pedals.
