Boss

An expansive pedalboard's worth of BOSS effects in one versatile unit.

It's one thing to have a sprawling pedalboard with every effect pedal you'd ever need, but if one pedal can give you awesome, versatile tone and portability, look no further than the BOSS ME-70. Consolidating over 40 great BOSS effects into a single floor-based multi-effects unit, the ME-70 pedal has no confusing menus or displays to sift through—it was designed to be just as easy to use as a collection of stompboxes. Organized into logical groups, these Boss effects are dialed in with dedicated front-panel knobs. All these guitar effects are housed in Boss's distinctive rock-solid, all-metal chassis, and it runs on either AC power or batteries for maximum portability.

The Effects

The BOSS ME-70 has 8 different effects groups, and all of them can be used independently or simultaneously. Once you dial up your effect type and customize it on the front panel, you can even save your settings for each effect type.

Manual and Memory

The BOSS ME-70 pedal has 2 operating modes: Manual and Memory. In Manual mode the effects function like a floor full of stompboxes; all adjustable on the fly. Its 4 dedicated footswitches allow you to turn the essential effects groups on and off. Once you've got your sound where you want it, Memory mode lets you save the setup as a patch for instant recall. You can save up to 36, and the ME-70 comes with 36 presets to get you started. In Memory mode, the 4 main footswitches let you switch patches and banks with ease.

Features

  • Effects Groups:
  • PREAMP: Uses BOSS COSM amp modeling technology to emulate 6 classic guitar amps
  • OD/DS: 10 distortion and overdrive effects
  • COMP/FX: Compressor, Touch Wah, BOSS Slow Gear, BOSS Defretter, Pickup Simulator
  • MODULATION: Phaser, Flanger, Vibrato, Tremolo, Chorus, Rotary Speaker, Uni-vibe, Intelligent Harmonist
  • DELAY: Phrase Loop with 38 seconds of recording time and unlimited overdubbing, Echo for up to 6 seconds in analog, modulate, and reverse
  • PEDAL FX: Wah and pitch-shifting, voice effects, modulation control via expression pedal's toe switch
  • Extras: 1-knob reverb control, noise suppressor, built-in chromatic tuner, and AUX IN jack for playing along with music

It's all the BOSS effects you love in a single, easy-to-use unit—add the ME-70 to the cart now.

Amazing Pedal!! Must Buy

| Review By: Dillon Vetere | 3 weeks, 10 hours ago

0 people out of 0 found this review helpful

Features:

Awesome pedal! Plenty of effects to choose from, built in EQ, and a pretty good looper.

Quality:

Very tough unit. The switches are strong, doesn't seem like they would be easy to break. Ive stepped on them very hard during live performances and I havent noticed any wear yet. The knobs are also built tough, and of course the pedal itself.

Value:

WORTH the money. This little baby can do almost everything I need it to!

Overall:

I love this pedal. Boss did a great job on the effects. Even the reverb is awesome. Its very limited but its still pretty good. Theres only a few things that are bad about this unit...Why DIDNT you include a power supply Boss?! I think that $300 is definitely worth a power supply. Also, the looper is pretty good, but the one thing that sucks about it is once its activated, thats pretty much ALL of your delay effects down the drain (with the exception of the weak Delay in the Modulation section). I can't really say much about the OD and the Preamps because I hardly use them for my style of music. However, I messed around with them just for fun and the Overdrive seems pretty awesome. All in all, BUY this product. Its a great heart for your pedal setup!

Boss ME-70 is the boss!

| Review By: Daniel Lee | 2 months, 1 week ago

0 people out of 0 found this review helpful

Features:

Plenty of useable, good-sounding effects, but I wish there was more control over delay and able to use the eq with the preamp modeling.

Preamp modeling sounds good but they are bit fizzy at high distortion in my opinion. (especially with scooped-mid, treble sound is bit harsh to my ear)

Quality:

Built like a tank, metal casing on this device is virtually indestructible.

Value:

It did not come with a power adapter.

Overall:

I think I've owned Boss ME-70 for almost 2 years now. I've used it in many different places and it did well for what it is. I highly recommend getting this effect for any guitarists out there.

ME-70

| Review By: Anthony Ingoglia | 2 months, 3 weeks ago

1 people out of 1 found this review helpful

Features:

     The product is excellent.  Let's be honest.  You can not do better for the price.  You get 4 distinct boxes with pedals, a preamp with facsimilies of great speaker combinations, seperate reverb and echo knobs and an effects pedal with several of its own features. You also get 36 preset  adjustable effects which you can store in memory so that you can toggle between 4 of them with the pedals.  You get 36 storage locations also.  You get a loop recording mode which is fun and I'm sure fuctional for certain situations. On the negative side there are a few small issues. You must purchase a DC plug in adaptor.  No on/off switch (what?). The vioce pedal effect is weak. The instructions for the the memory function is incomplete. I had to order an after-market DVD from ProAudioDVDs.com to learn that  and more.

     I'm spending much more time playing and enjoying it more, which is whole idea, right?  I do jam sessions with my male and female friends, sometime with a cool instructor. I can't wait entil the next one when bring my new toy. We are all older folks who"s spouses leave the room and shut the doors. We feel like teenagers. Rock on.

Quality:

It is well built and a brand name.  Mostly made of metal.  I can only compare to units I played in different stores and I'm impressed.  It has more features then i'll ever use.

Value:

That is a no brainer.  Try pricing seperate units ans see who you get.  Plus the convenience of the all-in-one feature is great.  You can also add pedal if you prefer.

Overall:

No on off switch?  I'd like to talk to the engineer about why.  He must  have gone on a lunch break and they took his plans away.  Why DC (battery) devices, including expensive ones, do not have an internal AC to DC convertor built-in internally is a mystery to me.  I'm sure it would only add a few dollar to the price. Heat build up maybe?

The instructions could use walk-through examples of some of the more confusing procedures. Boss should have a web tutorial to help us slow learners.

Over 40 Boss pedals in this. Do the math.

Overall:

I've gigged with this pedal a few times now. The modulation and delay effects are stellar. The Comp and distortions are somwhat digital. Manual mode is great. Overall it has let me put this pedal in a laptop case and carry my guitar and amp, all in one trip.

perfect little box

| Review By: david riley | 8 months, 3 weeks ago

9 people out of 12 found this review helpful

Features:

Plugged it right into my pa sounds so good . It is every effect you need if it won't make the sound you want it will get close . I saw negative feedback on how hard the pedal was to turn off and on but it is set just right if it was any easier you would be turning you pedal effects off and on by mistake only thing I agree should come with adapter

Quality:
Made like a typical boss pedal
Value:

No adapter  only thing that lowers rating

Overall:

Very happy with it no regrets
