A great wireless footswitch
Bockwurst 08.06.2023
This wireless bluetooth footswitch from Boss is amazing.
You can use it to control just about anything, DAW, browser, instruments, other pedals,... the list goes on.
I use it to control my Boss RC-5 looper to play/stop and move forward into my samples that I loaded into the looper.
Connection with the CME widi jack (get the 3,5mm/2,5mm adapter cables) and the setup is done in 3 minutes. You can use your smartphone (or tablet or computer) to assign functions and edit cc/pc's.
You can assign CC and PC commands and use it to turn pages or control websites/movies/etc, there is also an expression output (wah/volume pedal), usb output, a midi output and control pedal output (for extra footswitches) and you can power it through DC in (pedal power or adapter socket). You can also power it with 2 AAA batteries (preferably use rechargables)
It really works superb. The range is 10 meters (with the CME widi).

Pro's :
Soft switches, compact, extra connections, wireless, the ease of operation and setup, low price (for what it is).

Con's :
The biggest flaw I find is that this modern piece of equipment has absolutely no internal battery and the ability to recharge it through usb. This is a major setback. It's 2023 and really Boss? Still switching batteries?
I would very much like to see this pedal in a larger variant, with 10 or 12 switches. I would buy that instantly, even without an internal battery but I also think that there are other brands that have this and would probably be a bit cheaper.

Conclusion : the pro's greatly outweigh the con's. This is a very good footswitch!

Simple but efficient
earakaki 29.12.2022
Very configurable bluetooth foot switch.

You can send either MIDI controls or keyboard inputs, which makes it easier to customize and adapt to other usages, and with a MIDI cable you can use it to send commands to other different hardware.

FS-1-WL does what is promised
Dimitris K.. 21.12.2022
I bought the FS-1-WL in order to use it with my Boss GT-1000 pedalboard. It does the job and it works ok, the good news to me is that I can connect my external footswitch (Boss FS-7) as well so I can use them both wirelessly and over a big distance by the GT-1000.
Nice quality and feeling, still I can not say abt the battery lifecycle

Perfect pedal, with less than perfect Bluetooth connection
Hrisi 03.10.2023
I need to reconnect/ reset manually more often than expected. On the other hand it is very well built and once connected it stays that way. Just pairing it again is bothersome sometimes, but definitely still recommended.

Nice pedal but …
GUYBENNETT 30.11.2023
Bought this to control my Line 6 Helix .. mainly for the loop functions .. sadly the boss unit does not cover every single midi CC# required … so for my purposes it’s turned into an expensive tap tempo and tuner switch …
I contacted boss to ask if these missing numbers can be included in an update … they said they would consider it ….
Feels like this may be deliberate to get people to use their own multi effects pedals not other brands …. Little disappointing .. I wish this had been stated somewhere in the specs before I purchased .

It’s good quality and works welll , I will keep it for other functions I guess
