Someone on another forum said that you could only press two buttons in the second mode, but I don't know if he is correct.

At 4:58, the DC-2W has both Mode 1 and Mode 2 buttons pressed, with the S/SDD-320 switch on the "S" side.
At 5:28, the DC-2W has both Mode 1 and Mode 4 buttons pressed. This time, the S/SDD-320 switch is on the "SDD-320" side.

Yeah, I
think, if my maths is correct
, that you can press two buttons in either mode:
Boss website wrote:Four Switches, Expanded Sonic Possibilities
Just like the original Dimension effects, the DC-2W offers a simple and direct interface with four preset switches that provide sonic variations with increasing width and depth. While the originals had mechanical switches, the DC-2W is equipped with modern electronic switches and status LEDs for more solid performance. The new switches also allow you to press two at once to access a variety of additional sounds. Across the DC-2W’s two effect modes (S and SDD-320), 20 different Dimension variations are possible with just four switches.
Boss website wrote:When S (Standard) mode is selected, the DC-2W delivers the exact sound of the original DC-2 pedal. Despite players trying, pressing multiple buttons on the DC-2 didn’t actually produce any sound variations. Similar to SDD-320 mode, pressing two buttons at once in the DC-2W’s S mode provides access to six different “in-between” sounds not available on the original DC-2.
The DC-2W’s SDD-320 mode fully captures the original Dimension D vibe in every way. Many engineers like to press multiple buttons on the Dimension D rack for new and different sounds. But in truth, only two actual sound variations are technically possible with this undocumented feature. With its modern switching, the DC-2W’s SDD-320 mode enables six sound variations when two buttons are pressed, including four “in-between” sounds and two all-new voices.

The video seems to confirm that. That would be AWESOME.

Just picked up this unit from France for $146CDN total. Seen a few sell at $250 in this condition and I wanted to buy it at release but never got around to it which is actually too bad because the price has gone up! Anyone an FB-2 user on here?

Looks brand new!
I never got around to picking one of these up when they were in production and, like you, saw the prices had gone up since they were discontinued.
Ending up picking up a Fender Runaway though to cover my feedback needs

New Waza Craft pedals arrived and pix taken with their predecessors. The DC-2W has blown me away - the new SDD mode is spectacular through a Jazz Chorus amp in stereo.
Haven’t had much time to try the MT-2W yet as the DC kept me interested for most of the day !
