BF-2B Bass Flanger
By optimizing the BF-2 circuit for a lower frequency band, the BF-2B Bass Flanger was born 1987. The Bass Flanger was not replaced by another model when the production of the brown series of bass pedals was stopped. It is however now replaced by the BF-3 that have both a guitar and bass input.

Boss Pocket Dictionary Vol. 6 (1989):
The BF-2B Bass Flanger adds swirling and dynamic effects to your sound, opening up a world of intense tonal color variations. But as in the CE-2B, the bass fundamentals remain untouched with flanging added just to the harmonics. The original bass sound's punch and clarity is not diminished, and distinctive flanging is added to your bass sound for greater musical expression. Featuring a wide 100ms to 16 second variable LFO rate range, the BF-2B's four controls offer a wide array of flanging effects, ranging from swooshing jet sounds through chorus-like effects and vibrato effects. A Manual control adjusts the delay time, while Depth determines the sweep range. Then use Rate to set the sweep speed and the Resonance control for adjusting the amount of feedback desired. And as with the BF-2, low-noise performance has been engineered into the BF-2B wherever possible.

Using the BF-2B

Bass fundamentals stay unaffected so the bass' original power and clarity are fully present, even if heavy flanging is used. The BF-2B offers the challenge of creating your own distinctive bass techniques.
Different combinations of the BF-2B's four controls deliver numerous flanging effect variations.
The setting illustrated in Fig. 1 (Manual 8, Depth 6, Rate 3, Res 8) produces a powerful jet flanging effect, ideal for heavy metal. The fundamental sound stays unflanged, so a powerful sound composed of flanging plus the original punch and tonal characteristics of bass sound may be enjoyed.
If the Manual setting is lowered and the Resonance control set to zero, a soft chorus-like effect will result. Fig. 2 (Manual 3, Depth 5, Rate 5, Res 0)
Boss Guitar Effects Guide Book vol.9 (1993):
When a flanger effect unit for guitar is used with bass, the resulting sound will often be muddy and hard to distinguish from other instrument sounds. The BF-2B is engineered especially for the bass guitar, so it produces an outstandingly clear and distinctive flanging effect while retaining the character of the original sound. Four controls are furnished, allowing you to create a variety of effects.

Using the BF-2B

For a vibrato effect: Turn MANUAL to minimum and RATE to maximum. (Fig. 1: Manual 0, Depth 5, Rate 10, Res 3)
To produce a hard flanging sound: Raise the RES level for a powerful flange effect suitable for metal. (Fig. 2: Manual 8, Depth 5, Rate 3, Res 8)
For a chorus effect: Keep the RES level at minimum for a chorus effect. Reduce the DEPTH level to get a short delay. (Fig. 3: Manual 4, Depth 10, Rate 5, Res 1)
