Roland have recently upgraded their Cube range of combo amplifiers, the new generation of cubes have several new features such as new effects whilst the higher end models also have amp modeling and a phrase looper. Let's look at the third of the 4 models available which is the Roland 40XL ....
The CUBE 40XL offers 40 watts of power through an 10" high-performance custom designed speaker, there are discrete footswitchable channels via the optional Boss FS series footwsitches, JC Clean and Lead channels with Solo modes for each. Ten COSM amp models are provided, including the new Extreme and there are 8 effects on-board, including Heavy Octave, COSM vintage Spring Reverb, and Power Squeezer for full gain at low volume. An Aux Input allows portable music players to be connected for jam-along fun, whilst the cherry on the cake is an 80- second phrase looper.
As stated earlier, should you wish to you can connect a portable music player such as an MP3 or iPod to the Aux-In jack and jam along with your favourite songs, there's also a direct recording out and a headphone socket for silent practice. Considering the diminuative size of this unit Roland have packed an enormous amount of features into a small, easily transportable package - Check out the Cube 40XL now at the Nevada Music Warehouse.

@camlpg Thats Alex'x Musicman, I think It was a normal 5 way switch. No other pedals used in the in the video other than FS6 channel switches. A synth would need a hex pickup and a big RRC cable anyway. The in the video the amp was simply mic'd with a SM57 and mixed to the backing track, although Alex's fingers are amazing ...

@Reaper12894 Hey man- I just made a dual footswitch like the boss fs-6 for a cube 80x, it still doesn't work great with the delay/looper but it works perfectly with the channel switching and solo option. The trick is having a stereo cable connecting the amp to the footswitch. To tell the difference look at the plug of a regular cable (mono) and the plug of a stereo cable. The stereo plug has an extra line on the smooth part which enables both pedals to work. Hope this helps

My goodness! A visit to the "chops" shop. Damn fine playing and a fantastic sounding amp. It really is amazing how much good equipment is coming out with advances in amp technology. Recently I was listening to a demo of the Fender Supersonic Twin and was blown away. I heard the Mustangs and was blown away and now the Roland. I already have 5 (vintage) amps. I think I should just stay away. These companies are set to vacuum out my bank account.

I've bought the cube 40xl 2 days ago. Its a very nice amp. Very good chorus, nice reverb, you can make many sounds with it, the loop is very handy for practicing your skills. From the bluesy clean sound to the heavy metal extreme sound by roland. I really recommend it!

I have an older 30W and 80W. Both are great. The little one has been dropped and rained on (yes, it's true and I'm not proud of it), and it still works great. I replaced the speaker with a Jensen after a bass player blew out the old one. (I'm not normally an amp abuser.) I treasure these amps for their clean sound (JC Channel). The Tweed amp setting is great for blues. Obviously, highly reliable. And Alex Hutchings is terrific. Watch just to hear him play.

Bought a 40XL on the back of this video and online reviews. Very pleased, great mix of amp and pedal sounds, and very loud. But the 'Power Squeezer' pulls down the output for bedroom use. Just got a little MP3 player for backing tracks and plan to get a bunch of footswitches from Thomann. Overall a good buy!

@Reaper12894 I bought the Roland Cube 80XL and I love it! Its way better than the 40 XL and I was in the same situation you are in-which one to get(since they are both good). Besides the obvious power difference the 80 has more features....First of all it has a 12 inch speaker compared to the 10 inch one in the 40xl so you will have more bottom end. The 80xl also has an extension speaker jack so you could hook it up to a bigger cabinet if you wanted(that is nice but no need for it yet)....

Just run the cable from your footswitch to the "TIP: SELECT, RING: SOLO" slot. Only thing you need to pay attention to is, you need a stereo TRS cable if you want to use a double footswitch such as fs-6, as there are two pedals for only one cable.

Got 1 of these 4 my B-day. Sounds great but really only good 4 practice or recording. It has a lot of bass so as it gets louder the speaker over extends causing speaker pharting. If you want one to play through in your band go with the Cube 80XL. It's not that much more expensive (pretty cheap actually) with more features, power. and a 12 inch (30 cm) speaker.

Respond to this video... @xxDunkOrDiexx I have the Boss FS-5L which is a single latching pedal. I switch it out depending on my needs. The Cube has four different inputs in the back, each shares a dual function. The same switch will work in all inputs, but unless you buy the Boss FS-6, you will need more than one FS-5L to access looping and switch channels at the same time. Hope that makes sense....
@tigetbunny82
@tigetbunny82 13 жыл бұрын
@Reaper12894 Also, it has a presence control on the 80 so you have more tonal options(it is very effective),the JC Clean channel also has a bright switch which works wonders if you have a humbucker equipped guitar like my Ibanez and it brightens up your clean sound....and the 80 also has an extra amp model-The Deluxe Combo which models a Fender Deluxe Twin which is a great amp for bluesy and country sounds.Anyways, hope that helps you out some I bought mine for $349 new and its worth every cent
