Introducing the Boss FS-1-WL wireless footswitch

This ultra compact and fully customisable footswitch is essential if you are looking for a hands-free partner for all your creative needs. Go cable free and easily pair your devices over Bluetooth to operate a wide range of software apps and music gear.

Control digital music score apps, YouTube videos, DAWS and supported BOSS and Roland gear wirelessly over Bluetooth. Or, you can connect a MIDI cable to operate multi-effect processors, pedals, and other hardware.

For better control, expand your setup with the FS-1-WL wireless footswitch and use the dedicated editor/ librarian to assign keyboard commands and MIDI messages and control nearly any software application or MIDI device you choose.

Music page turner

With the FS-1-WL you can turn pages in digital music scores with the footswitches as you play, meaning you can move forward as you perform or page back to work on specific areas.

Youtube learning

Take advantage of Youtube keyboard commands to learn faster with online lesson content. Keep your hands on your instrument and use your feet to play, pause, playback speed, or rewind your video, making learning far more efficient.

DAW control

With the FS-1-WL you can stay focused on capturing performances with hands-free control of music recording software. Operate record, play and other keyboard commands in your DAW, or use the software's MIDI learn tools to configure.

Customizable command

Using the FS-1-WL editor app on your computer or smartphone, you can change the pre-configured setups to operate just about any software application or MIDI device.

You can assign keyboard commands to the footswitches, either single keystrokes or combinations with modifier keys like shift and control. Or, simply call up MIDI mode and set up custom PC and CC messages for your devices. To make things even more efficient, you can also create a library of configurations for different needs.

High quality build

Backed by decades of BOSS design expertise, the FS-1-WL is comfortable and built to last. The footswitches are quiet and easy to press, and make no clicking noises, ensuring your performance is uninterrupted.

The status LED's provide high visibility and can be set to different colours with the editor app. Two AAA alkaline batteries offer up to 14 hours of operation on the move, and the AC power is supported with an optional BOSS PSA adapter.

Versatile connections

To make the FS-1-WL even more versatile, up to two external footswitches can be connected for expand control with both MIDI messages and keyboard commands, and with the external expression pedal, you have continuous parameter to control any device which responds to MIDI CC messages. The FS-1-WL also features a TRS MIDI jack for wired operation of MIDI hardware devices.
