This product may be almost 5 years old but it is just what I need, and it was this video that convinced me. I must have watched almost an hour's worth of related video and I was tired of hearing sounds and watching great guitarists! This video showed me how to use it. And, BTW, I currently only have one effects box, so this is a great next step. Many thanks!

This was the best purchase ever! For a multi fx, all in one solution pedal, live use. $150, used from a pawn shop. Sounds real good, reliable, built like a tank, wont break the bank and its compact! I have the Helix floor but I tend to use this unit more because it is so much fun to manually change settings with the knobs and mess around with the loop recorder.

OK this has convinced me that the ME-80 is the right multi-effects pedal for me. Not because of the loop demo (which was super-trippy) but because you can control so much manually, the way I want to do it.

this model has a very sensitive channel volume. in order to set the base volume i use titanium recorder to measure the sound outed. get everything set to the modules and you are set. excellent choice for this product. Tom searle from "Architects" uses this. in order to replicate the sounds is ultimately why i bought this. after having it i have created over 50 of my own sounds to create. love it. a bit on the $$$ side but totally worth it. i am always using octave with follow up delay.
@srprice23836 жыл бұрын
It's a step backwards. The Reverb on the ME10 gives you R1 R2 H1 H2. And then pre delay, feedback, tone, volume. No amp models. It gives you both modes of the OD2 and DS2. Much more straight forward. Manual mode, analogue drives. Eq has got a swept mid. You can sweep through the wah by numbers too 1 - 100 using the wheel.

This pedal has the best delay to never hit the market- Cho + Delay. The volume control on this is also quite impressive. The ME-70 was my College workhorse. I currently play a Headrush, but still use it at times. Really shines in an FX loop.

GAK good day...may i just ask about boss me80 (or even at me70):if suppose there's a song uses 4 effects/modulation.(example stanza 1 is acoustic, refrain is flanger, chorus is distortion and bridge at tremolo) can we set me80/me70 accordingly? just like in stomp boxes,wherein we can switch on/off whatever effect we want to be heard...can we do this to boss multi fx? (like other simple multi fx like where there is "up" or "down" to select the effects,can we do this here? i hope you understand what i meant,cause i dont know how to xpain further) thanks a lot.

Was more interested in listening to amp sounds than the weird effects you focused on. I have the ME-70 and heard the amps were completely re-done for this unit. Was really interested in the difference in amps. Anyone A/B the amps from the ME 70 and 80?
@UnitedEffect8 жыл бұрын
GAK - Just wanted to let you know that a ring modulator was on another old Boss multi-effects, the ME-33. Although it was a cheaply made unit - all plastic housing, one very cool feature was that you could use the foot controller to sweep through the frequencies of the ring modulator. If the ME-80 had that feature I wouldn't hesitate buying it. Not something I used a lot but a total blast to use with/for percussive parts and jams. Sounded great when playing with a drum circle/percussion section. The pedal control made it so versatile and easier than bending over to turn a little knob. Nowhere near as useful for my purposes without the foot controller function. :(

I bought the ME-80 and it's great like using the ME-70 but with more effects and better control.The control pedal in User mod is fantastic,it adds more effects to your already saved ones and you can turn it on or off.The scroll up and down pedals are great no extra pedal needed to change banks.Now I have the ME-80 on one board and the ME-70 on another board.The ME-80 is the one to get simple.light,and sounds remarkably good.
@wallsy20106 жыл бұрын
Just to be a total nerd, this isn't the first ring modulator on a Boss unit; the ME-8 had a ring modulator and an intelligent ring modulator, both drivable by an external expression pedal on the 1990s Boss ME-8, which was an outstanding unit.
@SWEAVER8 жыл бұрын
I have a question. With my current set up I run both a Bluesdriver and DS-1 at the same time to get a nice heavy (but not sizzly) distortion. If I bought an ME-80 could I put a Bluesdriver and DS-1 on the same banked channel? Or can I only have one OD/Dist pedal on each channel?

@WutipongWongsakuldej10 жыл бұрын
I had ME-70, and it works great straight into the preamp, given that you turned the preamp modeling on the effect off. I put it in many amps before and I don't have any problems (unlike the other multi-effect unit I had). On ME-70, the preamp modelling section has EQ section, so instead of turned it off entirely, you could change it to EQ. I guess ME-80 also have this mode on the preamp section as well. I sold my ME-70 last year, planned to get GT-100. Maybe I reconsider getting ME-80 instead.

With the multi-overtone pedal, ring modulator, and foot controller for the ring mod it edges me toward getting one of these units. I had a cheap me-33 years ago, and the ring mod used in tandem with the foot controller was a blast! Especially when playing with multiple percussionists. Also the freeze, and capacity for multiple delays is a big plus. I do hope it has a harmonizer built in rather than just the 1 and 2 octave down settings... which are likely to be monophonic (drag). Great review though, thanks.

Sound wise, i came to read HD series knocks out the ME 80 (don't know if that's true) But i also read the HD series is more meant for Recording session and not for Live play and the ME series is for Live play. My main and Only emphasize is LIVE PLAY & LIVE GIGS . I need it only for that. could someone kindly shed some light! thank you.

When you play as many shows as I do with different artist and songs you need to be able to get to the sound quickly.The ME-70 does that very well with the user mods.I play Oldies R&B and there are so many sounds.The ME-80 seems to be a little more complex and you don't need complex on stage you need direct.The only negative I see is they should have stayed with the Black color and kept the foot switch connection.I'll stick with the ME-70 for now but it is a boss product and boss rocks.Sema'j

I`m using two amps, exactly the same amps, and I tried flanger, no panning effect. It doesn`t have any other panning effect, so...................what`s the meaning of having two outs for two amps, if there is no stereo modeling, or other left to right switching effect, ............... If anybody have the key to do it, i will appreciate some help, but i start thinking it`s one point against this machine. Even though i love the manual mode and other features like the duplicated modeling effects, and other bunch of things. May be only my unit, i don`t know. But if you give a look to the list of effects, there is no stereo chorus, flanger, or pan, or pan delay, or ping-pong delay. That is the point. I think it`s not stereo at all.
