Value For Money : Excellent
The effects are
- Compressor
- OD / Disto
- Eq
- Reverb / Delay
- Chorus / Flanger

Sounds are ditables, you can connect a footswitch and even released in Stereo.
It is classic ... At the trs era (10 years) cost about 2500Frs. So an alternative INTERESTED c'tait the pedals and all the stuff that accompanied them.

UTILIZATION

Configuration and edition are simple. The manual is not used much.
Small LEDs indicate on what effect you are, and the small display shows us the value.

SOUND QUALITY

The clean sounds are not bad. Flanger and reverb are convincing.
The overdrive is honnte.
But the distortion ... I never find the sound. I have used on various Marshall (JCM800 two bodies whose lamps) ... and always synthetic and screaming ... Too bad ...
The scratch using change nothing.
As the reviews on the ME-50, I find it tends overwrite the sound is bte when using a Fender for his slamming!!

OVERALL OPINION

In the end I do is more! I do not play in a group (for now). I work in my home studio with Cubase plugins on ... Ok a is a real amp with real effects ............. The only time I spell c o is when typing a beef with collgues it dpanne well.
I like the edition of the effects (super intuitive), strong as it has on the t trs Malmen concerts, what a jack has made me pretty quickly
The report price is good quality especially for the era. OCCAZ now is a good deal even when.
Now, with the exprience I prfererais invest in spares pedals ... I would take the best of each brand, all-in-one dcoivent forcment.
