Boss ME-80

The compact and affordable multi-effects unit from Boss with an incredible amount of options, sounds and tweakability!

The ME-80 from Boss is what we call an all-in-one solution. Packaged in a handy size and with battery operation, this multi-effects unit provides a very powerful tool for the serious guitarist to find his or her sound, without getting involved in complicated pedal boards and heavy (tube) amplifiers . In addition, the attractive price tag also helps a lot. The ME-80 is equipped with a large number of amplifier and effect types such as various clean and overdriven amplifiers, overdrive/distortion/fuzz effects, compressors, modulation effects, delays, reverbs, whammy, expression pedal functionality etc... Thanks to the user-friendly control layout it is easy to navigate through all these different options and thanks to the physical buttons (instead of, for example, touch screen or a single master button) you can easily make adjustments to your settings at any time. As a result, it is only a matter of seconds before you get a big tone from the Boss ME-80. Thanks to the various "operation modes" it is possible to use the ME-80 as a stompbox-style pedalboard in which you can switch the effects on and off separately, or for a more complex multi-effects set-up with which you can use a complete pre-set loads at the touch of a button. Very powerful! With the free Boss Tone Studio software you can delve even deeper into the functionality of the ME-80, as you can make adjustments to your pre-sets or adjust different sounds with a clear interface on your computer. The icing on the cake is that you can load new patches via the Boss Tone Central, further enriching the user experience of this powerful effects processor.
