Flagship-quality BOSS effects and AIRD amp models

The guitarists here at Musiekwereld are blown away by how many sounds the ME-90 puts at your feet. You get a massive library of premium BOSS effects in seven different categories, all derived from the company’s flagship GT-1000 multi-effects pedal. You get everything you need, from overdrives and distortions to pitch and modulation effects, delays, and studio-quality reverbs. You also get 11 dedicated Pedal FX, a looper, and specialized effects, including an acoustic guitar and down-tuned simulations. As for amplifiers, the ME-90’s AIRD-powered amp models are second to none, covering everything from squeaky-clean combos to red-hot high-gain stacks, supplying you with authentic tube tones with realistic touch response. Each amp includes a dedicated cab, plus you can load three of your favorite speaker IRs. The ME-90 gives you 60 effects in total, along with 11 onboard amp types, plus you can access more via BOSS Tone Studio software.

Easy sound creation and flexible real-time control

Thanks to its knob-driven interface and stompbox-style layout, building configurations and tweaking tones with the BOSS ME-90 is a walk in the park. You get all the benefits of a well-appointed pedalboard without worrying about messy connection cables, power distribution, and cumbersome hook-and-loop fasteners. The ME-90’s eight footswitches operate smoothly and quietly, and its built-in expression pedal provides effortless real-time control over your effects. You can use the ME-90’s Memory mode to call up complete patch setups using the footswitches, or you can use Manual for direct control of each effect category within a patch. The footswitches on this guitar multi-effects pedal include colored LEDs for at-a-glance identification. Moreover, you can set the LEDs to light in a fixed color for each mode.

Extended configuration and editing

If you really want to extend the ME-90’s configuration and editing capabilities, fire up BOSS Tone Studio software on your Mac or Windows-based PC. With BOSS Tone Studio, you can edit tones, change out amp and effect types, and a whole lot more. You can also save and organize your patches for different applications, download professionally crafted setups from BOSS Tone Central, and swap patches with the robust ME-90 community on BOSS Tone Exchange. You can also purchase an optional Bluetooth Audio MIDI Dual Adapter (sold separately), which allows you to stream music from a mobile device and wirelessly shape tones using a dedicated app on your smart device.
