It is for the guitarist who wants the basic Boss effects and COSM amp sounds to be available in an affordable, portable, simple-to-operate unit. Sure, there are guys on youtube who have programmed their GT-8's to drive a car and do internet banking but they are otherwise unemployed anoraks who peddle twiddle 20+ hours a day. Just press and HOLD the Edit/Exit button and turn the knob in question and the value will be displayed.

Today, it still stands its ground as one of the easiest-to-use multi-effect floor units, with familiar Boss controls and parameters and tons of classic amp models and Boss pedals built in.So I go back to bass and get the ME50 for that band then start playing lead with yet another band and then I put my foot down. I ran their me70s direct into some tube preamps to warm them up and then into some good apogee converters. I've given up using the preamp settings, as they all sound awful, and the distortions sound pretty awful too if I use too much Drive. However,be aware that having anything plugged into the Recording/Phones jack will apply the amp simulation to both that jack AND the regular (direct to your own amp) jacks. Equipboard may receive compensation for purchases made at participating retailers linked on this site.

However, it has been used in my (now disbanded) band, for recording, for home practise, for trying effects out before purchase etc etc. If you have any questions about this item or would like to know more about it, please feel free to contact us with any specific questions and a member of our sales staff will get back to you straight away. All these guitar effects are housed in Boss's distinctive rock-solid, all-metal chassis, and it runs on either AC power or batteries for maximum portability. The ME70 was designed to go in front of a guitar amp which is the opposite of most multi fx/modeling boards out today. One of the fun things about this unit is all the knobs for tweaking the settings, however this is still a digital device.In the bars they were playing they cut the mustard pretty well, but I wound up twisting their arms to use my actual vintage Marshalls and voxes to track the core parts live.
