Main Features

● Adopting Roland's original FFP technology, this highly functional DSP bass amp features 100-watt
sound output through the newly developed 30 cm (12-inch) coaxial 2-way wide-range speaker.
● The amp is equipped with a total of eight COSM amp model types, including seven of the most
popular bass amps along with a newly developed SUPER FLAT.
SUPER FLAT is an original amp type that features a wide-range frequency and faithful response
suitable for use with upright basses.
● In addition to an easy-to-use 4-band equalizer, this amp features a SHAPE function for even
greater flexibility in creating sounds and rich sound variation.
● The amp is equipped with a total of three bass effect systems, including COMPRESSION, an EFX
system with CHORUS, FLANGER, and T-WAH, and basic DELAY/REVERB.
● In addition to RECORDING OUT/PHONES jack with high-quality sound modeling, the CUBE-
100 BASS is also equipped with professional quality BALANCED OUT, LINE OUT, and TUNER
OUT, and EXTERNAL SPEAKER jacks. With such expandability, this amp can be used for a wide
variety of applications, from home recording to live performances.
FFP (Feed Forward Processing) is system control technology that optimizes the performance of
the amp, speakers, and cabinet characteristics according to the signals being input, based on the
results of analyses of the operation and behavior of each section of existing amp systems.
COSM (Composite Object Sound Modeling) is Roland's innovative and powerful sound
modeling technology. COSM analyzes the many factors that make up the original sound, such as
the electrical and physical characteristics of the original, and then produces a digital model that
can reproduce the same sound.
