This popped into my YouTube recommendations last night:

I'd definitely prefer to have the on/off switch in a battery only pedal (e.g. 32TB2, Fuzz Architect, GHF). Much easier to stop the battery draining without having to unplug the input cable.

There's a support article on Boss's website that suggests you need to connect the GX-10 to a computer t...

And a few more. This time based on the Roland press releases: JB-2 - 8th September 2017 DS-1-4-A - 19th January 2017 AD-2 - 27th October 2016 CP-1X - 27th October 2016 CE-2W - 21st June 2016 TU-3W - 6th April 2016 TU-3S - 6th April 2016 VO-1 - 20th January 2016 I'm not sure these dates coincide prec...

Some more precise release (well, maybe more accurately, announcement) dates if you're interested? They're based on the announcement forum posts here so only go back to 2018. DC-2W - 4th October 2018 MT-2W - 4th October 2018 SY-1 - 11th July 2019 DD-3T - 26th September 2019 DD-8 - 26th September 2019...
