What are the effects, types of effects available?

</ul>

Almost everything you need: 22 types of overdrive / distortion, modulation effects (chorus, flanger, phaser, uni-vibe ...), multiple delays, wah wah, whammy + / - 1 octave noise supressor, reverb, microphone simulator ... Beware there is no amp simulator, which is not bad, at least the instrument and the amplifier are fully respected :-)

<ul>

What technology is used? (Analog, digital, tube ...)

</ul>

BOSS-COSM technology, which all digital

UTILIZATION

<ul>

Ease of Use

</ul>

We can not be easier! It is even disconcerting! Either you program yourself effects (3 patches in 10 banks) or used as 3 separate pedals boss. Effective, no complaints.

SOUND QUALITY

The delays are very successful, no complaints either about the effects of modulation. The flanger is particularly good I think. Fishing where it is for the distortion, a real massacre! It is completely flat, help the digital pedals prférez simple. I compared my TS9 tube screamer TS9 with the simulation of the ME-50, it simply has NOTHING to do. ME-50 The effect is laughable. Ditto for the distortions a bit tougher. Stack effect is ridiculous, as the BOSS DS-1. The only one I found drinking (and again) is the OD2. And yet I have tried on many amps: Fender Twin Reverb, Peavy Classic 50, Marshall JCM800, JCM900, JCM2000, VS100, Vox AC30. Nothing saveable for distos. I use a Godin SD 1H 2S.

OVERALL OPINION

<ul>

In brief

</ul>
For all that chorus, flanger, tremolo and especially delay (great), go there with confidence, it's worth it. on the other hand for distortion, go your way! Or rather buy a separate pedal ...
