Manufacturer's Description for Boss ME-50 Guitar Multi-Effects Pedal

The ME-50 Guitar Multiple Effects is a floor-based multi-effects processor built with the ruggedness and simplicity of a stompbox. Designed to work with your amplifier, the ME-50 focuses on killer multi-effects (like COSM overdrive and distortion) rather than amp modeling. And dialing in your tone is easy, thanks to dedicated knobs for each effect section, three footswitches and a built-in expression pedal. So if you want great-sounding effects without all the menu surfing, the ME-50 is everything you need.

Features:
Floor-based multi-effects processor with Boss' most intuitive interface ever

30 Preset Patches including delay, modulation, reverb, compressor and more

Killer COSM overdrive/distortion effects including "Square" synth sound

Dedicated knobs for each effect section - no menus to navigate!

Tone Modify function offers Preset EQ settings for quick tone editing

3 footswitches for switching effects on and off with a single stomp

Onboard expression pedal pre-routed to 6 modulation options or volume

Rugged metal case with clear panel layout

Works Just Like Your Favorite Pedals
A multi-effects processor without a menu-driven LCD Leave it to BOSS to design the most intuitive multi-effects processor ever. With simple knob-based control over each effect section, the ME-50 makes dialing in your tone easier than ever. And when you want to kick in an effect, just step on one of the footswitches. Think of it as a pedalboard full of stompboxes, just without all the individual pedals.

Superb Overdrive/Distortion Effects
The ME-50 boasts a range of superb COSM overdrive and distortion models - perfect for use on stage with an amp. Derived from the popular OD-20 Drive Zone, these are some of the crunchiest, tastiest overdriven sounds you can imagine. There's even a "Square" effect for cool synth-type sounds. Of course, the ME-50 also has plenty of other effects like compression, analog delay, flanger, phaser, tremolo, Harmonist,
Uni-V and a wicked new Rotary effect.

Easy Assignable Expression Pedal
Having an assignable expression pedal is great, but not if you have to dig through menus just to select the effect you want to control. The ME-50 fixes all that with a simple Pedal Mode switch and knob. First, select whether you want to use the pedal for volume or expression. If you choose expression, you can then select one of six preset assignments via the dedicated knob: wah, resonance, voice, ring mod and octave up or down.

Memory Function for Live Performance
The ME-50's Memory function makes changing Patches quick and easy. Once enabled, the 3 footswitches become Patch selectors for switching between three programs within one of the ME-50's ten memory banks. To switch banks, just press the Bank Up/Down buttons or use an optional footswitch. And with the ME-50's convenient tuner function, keeping your guitar in tune is easy. zZounds is an authorized dealer of Boss products.

"great, almost perfect"
Sound: sound is perfect, almost any sound imaginable can be created Feature: features i use most are the acoustic simulator, which is a pretty cool effect, and the wah pedal, which has 6 different wah effects Quality: it is made well, the tuner is nice to have, its small and it can be battery powered Value: bargain! so many effects for the price of 3 or 4 Manufacturer Support: havent needed support in 2 years The Wow Factor: color is vibrant and metallic, and the black accents it very well Overall: i imagine i will stick with it for a long time
Style of Music: classic rock

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Boss has redeemed itself"
Sound: overall this product sounds very good. I especially liked the built in compressor, which works much better than the single stomp box unit (CS-3). the modulation sounds very nice and the delay options are awesome as well. Feature: the expression pedal is amazing, when kicked in, it can be one of several different sounds, including wah and a voice box simulator. when disengaged it becomes a volume pedal. the noise gate is good, but because it automatically sets the decay rate you can get some feedback after you stop playing. Quality: metal constuction, durable. Value: I would say that it is close, but it could chop a little off the top. the ease of use is well worth it, but with that you also lose some diversity in effects options. Manufacturer Support: roland's site is very intuitive and helpful. The Wow Factor: I needed an effects unit that covered all the bases easily and effectively. this covers it. (and it looks cool too, chicks dig it). Overall: Overall this is a great pedal, if you need something to cover all the basics, (modulation, distortion, delay, and a decent wah), then this is your pedal, i'm definately glad I got it.
Style of Music: rock, metal, hardcore
