    The other opinion do well around.

    UTILIZATION

    Setup is very easy, if you're used to using pedals, IDAL is the tool for a problem without replacing the pedals with the same quality individual n 'dplaise aficionados in the individual pedals.
    Quality Sonore8/10

    SOUND QUALITY

    The effects are good and comparable trs those of individual boss pedals (which I used) but without the power supply of 36 inconvnients and son everywhere! You can have a great variety of sounds trs, it should however take the time to rgler well, and is the best!

    OVERALL OPINION

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it with an Epiphone LP, a PRS and a Cort X11, branch on the effects loop of my mixer, a power amp and a 2x12 cabinet.
    Global Opinion 9 / 10
    The report price is excellent quality.

    It is a convenient tool, useful, powerful and good quality trs.

    I had many other multi-effects, ZOOM, VOX, Korg, etc. .. and I find it much better, I am fully satisfied!



    I remake that choice.

    Simple and Effective

    The effects are quite numerous, delay, tremolo, phaser, tremolo, octave, Harmonists, reverb, wah, voice, sounds more saturated (fuzz, metal, blues, etc. .. core) and many more! A preamp is also modeled.

    There is also possibility to record a loop of about 40 seconds.

    UTILIZATION

    Very easy to use. The sound can be modeled fairly easily with many knobs. There is also a bank's pre-recorded.

    I will, however, a little less on two points. Indeed, it is impossible to set multiple effects together like delay + phaser, delay + octave, tremolo + phaser pedals ... etc. Each effect has its share of record and the potentiometer does to operate at a time (To clarify, take the image of the…

    on the other hand it is possible to activate all the pedals at the same time, such as "Defretter + + Fuzz Phaser".

    SOUND QUALITY

    I use a les paul electric guitar ESP LTD EC1000. I play metalcore, metal and acoustic compositions and pedal is perfect! All effects are rendered fairly realistic and I do not "hate" no. My favorites remain the workhorse "core" and "blues" for its full. For other effects, reverb, delay, octave, wah, and phaser.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for almost 2 years and I'm still satisfied! Before this purchase I did not have any multi-effects pedal, just a Boss MT2.

    The price / quality ratio is quite satisfactory.
    If the choice would be to do again, I would do without worry!

    With the ME-70, everything is much faster and easier, it's true that a lot of knobs but that's what makes this practical and intuitive MODEL. This pdalier is readily usable by a novice.

    If I had to make a small remark, I would have another prfrer System to enable the modulation pedals. The support is strong enough on the front of the pedals. There were perhaps be a little easier through the thing.

    SOUND QUALITY

    Point of view of quality effects, I'm really not. I really feel like the same quality as with BOSS pedals Specializes. All effects are quite flexible for the sound I want.

    A small BMOL on the "Loop". It is easy to use but I find it lacks the ability to make a "PAUSE / PLAY" (or I do not know how ...).
    Once the playback is stopped Loop, his memory is given zero-: bad.

    I use the ME-70 with a Jazzmaster and a Squier Vintage Modified.
    I use only headphones or a sound system so that the sound is not changed by the amp that I could possibly connect derrire.

    Moreover, instead of plugging a combo derrire I think plutty connect an amp without pre-amp in order to find exactly the sounds I have in the headphone.

    Submitted Among the effects, I do not use it all srement but at least I have a choice ... and to explore new territories.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for 3 weeks and so far I am happy trs both in terms of sounds from its use.

    Particular feature I like most: sound quality and ease of use.
    Minimum: Enabling modulation pedals and a little lack of functionality in the Loop function.

    Before, I had an ME-30 but the sound quality n'tait really do l. .. and the slow construction of its silent pnible enough.

    Quality price ratio: correct ... even better with the included AC adapter.

    I do it again this choice without problem.

    It has all the effects commonly used (compression, saturation, chorus, delay, wah, whammy, noise reduction, reverb ...) and a loop of 39s.
    It can be used in "manual" or "memory".
    The two small oversights to make it almost perfect tennis is a delay (in stereo) and an acoustic simulator (which were yet on the ME50).

    It is a fairly complete pedals and good quality (metal box and plastic pedals Boss typical).
    There is unfortunately not supplied with power ...

    UTILIZATION

    Operation is very simple and is based on the principle of individual pedals.
    I use most often in "manual" mode: intuitive and by the peculiarity of this pedal over other (because of its configuration).
    The "memory" mode is more convenient to repeat but the downside is that you have in mind the different settings (since the sliders indicate at all the current settings ...).
    The loop memory is very convenient but has only three functions: registration and readers, adding overlay and stop. We can not stop and take a loop, but by playing on the expression pedal (volume coupled with the delay), it is possible to bypass the loop and back in his eSuite (for cons is not always easy to fall well on his feet ..). It is less useful in "memory" because you can not then change his registration from the loop and use during reading.

    SOUND QUALITY

    The effects are good especially distos, modulations and delays.
    The preamp is not very successful (for modeling amps anyway) and can not be used in manual mode (you can not pass a clean channel to channel saturation like on a real amp). I mostly use the mode "clean" coupled with a distortion.
    The expression pedal works correctly but I have understood the interest or the proper use of imitation which made talk box is awful.
    The sound through headphones is very good.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I watched from a small moement the ME50 to turn "pedal board" when the ME70 is out.
    I was immediately captivated by its ease of use and possibilities.
    Sounds obtained are very good and very varied, I find the prices very good value.

Well, you turn the knobs you want left or right then you're using pedals turn!
    Then, when editing a sound, we can no longer simple example, you put distortion blues, and you move! Then you manage the volume effect, tone, ...
    The manual is short but clear!

    SOUND QUALITY

    I use a Fender Start 70's classic and a Marshall MG100 DFX ...
    Suffice to say that until now, I was disappointed with the sound of my amp, could never get the sound I was looking for ... So I'm new to effects pedals and my opinion is worth what it is!
    While sound quality, I was amazed ... It is effective at all levels and quickly (perhaps unless you are very demanding or professional??) And the knobs are so sensitive work! The amp is pretty good imitation. The noise suppressor is a purification for the ears, I still can not get over (Novice I remind you!).
    I love raving with wha sounds, imitation violin, voice ... For now, I do not sound that I hate! Can be a downside for the looper: when you stop the loop, the phrase is deleted ...

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've tried any other multi effects pedal. I even tried the Boss Noise Supressor DS1 but I was pretty disappointed with the result! Like Boss (I have a RC-20 XL) once I did not hesitate: we must try and find out it must be used for a time I think. Therefore, once again, my opinion is worth what it is ... I did that for 3 days! But I feel like I rediscovered the guitar!
    I remake that choice without hesitation: 270 euros for a pedal that allows me to discover the world of guitar effects and with quality. Moreover I am not interested in the use of 36 000 effects, just having the ability to use good effects wisely!
    My opinion is not totally neutral, I just buy it I'll come back in some time to improve my opinion ...
    But my first impression was: Thanks Boss!

    UTILIZATION

    Super simple setup, there is even a tone easy mode for those who want to take the lead to address.
    Editing sounds very intuitive, manual widely enough, you look 5 minutes and understand everything

    SOUND QUALITY

    I play in a band that includes Pink Floyd therefore a multi effect was more than necessary!
    I play on an imitation of the substrate by Samick (very nice sound!) And an Epiphone Wildkat (another genre but also excellent) and my amp is a Kustom Quad 100 DFX (with a section 100w effect of m *** *)

    The preamps are very good at their job, it radically changes the configuration and it makes the sound great! Depending on how the rules ... But the settings are simple to get what you want, from blues to metal Virula, jazz to folk.

    Distortions cover a wide range of possibility, I complete my uber metal pedal by Line 6 in order to prune my mieu distortion, but distortion pedals are offered by more than enough as long as you spend some time in the settle.

    The modulations are this brilliant, they can be cut as desired, and the choice of time can have exactly what you want, this pedal has really won.

    I do not use very often the compressor is not a very big user of this effect, I have not learned to use it so I do not use ...

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had it 6 months, I have long tried to pedal but only for the cost, it is better to take a pedal (as long as I TYPE in the pedals boss ...). The effects are the same as the pedals sold separately can things ready, with fine tuning can find the perfect sound, it applies to all styles. Having fun playing a lot of different things, there never was a sound I could not have, or rarely.

    The only fault I give it: it will take two modulation sections in order to put a flanger and tremolo all example ...

    The thing I love most: this may be the delay in the modulation and delay with chorus of Part time: this allows me to put a long delay and a short time!

    Value for money: I got it at 250 € with food, I REFERRED that choice without hesitation because it is really full! For cons, I will complete my pedals may be other modulation effect in order to create different sounds again!

    PS: This is the first notice that I leave, be gentle.

    I put 9 for the excellent idea of the configuration of this pedal, even though we may regret the absence of reverb or distos more numerous (but we should be picky).

    UTILIZATION

    The manual is useless and very unclear when the usefulness of each knob, it's fiddling that forged his sound.
    The use is so simplified by using these knobs, which can tweak its sound live without spending 10 minutes to edit a preset. We choose the distortion you want, modulation, we hold a small delay and hop is in the pocket. Ease of use not found on any other multi-purpose.
    I also use it very often with headphones, plugging directly above me with my guitar, and upgrade its effects make some much better than my amp.

    SOUND QUALITY

    Ah, here or down there hurts ... or no addition. It depends.
    Well I play it with an Epiphone Les Paul Studio and a Fender Standard Stratocaster.

    Section COMP: It does its job, the compressor is quite safe despite the presence of a slight hiss on Start, 2 3 tricks a bit unnecessary but overall.

    Section OD / DS: Not bad for Overdrives, the sound is natural enough, but when you go type in distos Metal / Hard Rock, the sound is too synthetic, it makes a kind of porridge when we play on the thick rope, a brief mention. The fuzz is not bad, however in some modern style.

    MODULATION section: Very successful, the chorus sounds of the fire god, also 2 with 3 tips not very useful but it's been a good job. Hat.

    Section DELAY: The strong point is THE multi purpose! The section is ultra provided with all types of delay, which is rendering quite beautiful, I really found nothing wrong.

    PEDAL FX section: The wah wah and the whammy, the only 2 I use the effects, have not really convaicus.

    REVERB section: Not bad, there are only 2 but they are widely usable.

    PREAMP section: Ouch! I really understand what Boss has sought to make. Besides the simulation of the Rectifier and Fender clean, none are usable! Simus the Marshall and Vox are sick! Major weakness of the pedals.
    In the end I put 6 because despite great successes, some sounds distos, expression pedal and preamp section in general are not level.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for 1 year.
    I tried the Vox Tonelab too complicated.
    I love this multi-purpose as it adjusts its effects as a Stompbox and is much more convenient.
    I almost never use the multi distos effect, so for the fact that I use, I am very happy!
    The value for money is not bad, but we can do better.
    I would do this choice because I was focused on the effects I needed and I was not planning on distos MOE 70. If I had had to use the multi-effects to shape my sound, so I probably would not make that choice.
