This is an intermediate piece of kit, but aspires towards a professional level, and is definitely close to that. This is the ME-25 driver for Microsoft® Windows® 7. This driver also supports ASIO (Steinberg Audio Stream I/O Interface). In saying that, it’s not really essential for the likely users of this pedal. If an intermediate guitarist has decided they feel strongly enough about a particular individual effects pedal, they’ll go ahead and get one. Most professional musicians will have individual pedals for their own sounds for their own songs, so this multi-effects would be well-suited to a gigging covers musician; somebody who plays in bars or function bands, who needs to have high-quality tones, devoid of fuss. In addition to its stellar COSM amp models and effects, the ME-70 is fitted with a new COSM Preamp section derived from BOSS’s GT-10 and Legend series. With the ME-70 you can dial up a world of tone, from classic to cutting-edge, with simplicity and speed.

With BOSS having created so many classic tones in their own pedals over the years, it stands to reason that they’d be focused on them.The ME-70’s dedicated knobs for each effect section allow full, fast control over sound creation, just like a stompbox. The knobs make the ME-70 incredibly easy to use compared to traditional multi-effects units. Users will also love the new Phrase Loop function for sound-on-sound creation, with up to 38 seconds of recording time. Its EZ Tone function allows for fast and easy tone creation via simple effects presets, so players of any level can create superb tones of any genre within seconds. The features covered here represent just a fraction of what the ME-80 can do. And while the ME-80 is not without limitations (most often these are fair tradeoffs for simplicity), it’s a smart, streamlined way of getting a lot of sounds for very little dough. Kiiltävä, musta-valkoinen ulkoasu tuo hyvin esiin jokaisen potikan ja nappulan. 3 jalkakytkintä, Expression-pedaali, 4 potikkaa, 9 taustavalaistua nappulaa ja isompi LED-näyttö - tämä pedaali on erinomainen jokaisessa olosuhteessa, jopa pimeällä lavalla.

The Line 6 AMPLIFi FX100is a cool piece of kit, with a lot to offer. Line 6 are a brand who are always keen to push technological boundaries, especially when it comes to amps and modeling. One of the key features of the FX100 is its Bluetooth connectivity.

Obviously, the ME-80 isn’t the first multi-effect unit or modeler to deliver portability and connectivity. Devices like Line 6’s POD and Boss’ own GT-100 have similar capabilities, and the ranks of tablet- and smartphone-based guitar interfaces seem to grow daily. But the ME-80 offers an interface that’s much more familiar and intuitive to the typical stompbox user, and arguably, a whole lot more fun to play with than other devices. To edit and store, use dedicated front panel knobs - Drive, Tone & Level with Expression pedal and the Write button. Expression pedal controls the number of pedal effects like octave up / down, wah, freeze effect and even allows you to create swells (gradual increase followed by gradual decrease) in pitch and volume. In ON position, expression pedal controls the pedal FX and in OFF position, it controls the volume. Yhdistä ME-25 tietokoneeseesi (PC) USB-kaapelilla ja äänitys voi alkaa.

There are plenty of alternatives in this price range if the ME-25 isn’t quite doing it for you, but you’re still in the market for a high-quality multi-effects unit. Line 6 AmpliFi FX100 The pedal-assignable effects consist of volume, wah, “tremolo arm” (similar to a Whammy pedal) and ring modulator. There’s a global guitar amp simulator that emulates an amplifier’s tone when you’re playing through headphones or recording direct to tape/cd/hardrive. And in addition to all these effects, the ME-30 has a built-in chromatic tuner.Again, you have to be realistic about these things: it’s not going to be in the same league as vintage Marshall miced up with a Neumann or Telefunken. Boss ME-70 is a floor-based processor that offers the compact design and simplicity of a stompbox. With dedicated knobs for each section, a new, high-quality COSM engine derived from the GT-10, and added EZ Tone and Phrase Loop features, the ME-70 is the ultimate easy-to-use floorboard powerhouse. It’ll be interesting to take a look at the tones it can create. It’s unlikely a user will need to get rid of their ME-25 because it’ll be broken – let’s see if the limited range of tones will put people off, or compromise the longevity of the product. Tones The stomp box models haven’t been designated as tributes to any particular pedals of yore, with the exception of BOSS’s OD-1 and Ibanez’s Tube Screamer. I’m actually quite surprised they haven’t used it as an opportunity to champion more of their own work.
