Boss ME-25 Multi Effect

Clean to Crunch to Lead Tones, This Pedal Does It All!

All you need is a guitar and the ME-25 and you're ready to sound like a pro. This compact multi-effect boards is flat-out packed with the effects you'll want and need to write, cover, and jam on just about any song idea or style possible. The ME-25 is made by the stompbox gurus over at BOSS, and those guys definitely know tone. It's like they wanted to put everything they've ever made into one, easy-to-use, super-portable, gig-friendly box... and the ME-25 is pretty much all of those things. In fact, on top of the included effects that cover the gamut from sick distortions to fat wahs, there's even a built-in looper so you can stack sounds or build up massive one-man-band anthems with the BOSS ME-25.

If you've been playing electric guitar for a while and you're wanting to add stompbox-style effects to your rig, the ME-25 is a no-brainer. For the price of just a couple of stompboxes you get a practical tone machine, filled with BOSS's best effect tones and even amp models. Long story short, you can launch your sound into whatever direction you imagine — like having a packed pedalboard and multiple amps behind you, very cool. Plus, you can customize the way you sound just by twisting the Drive, Tone, and Volume knobs on the ME-25. There's more, though.

Once you've found a sound or riff you love, the ME-25 is ready to record it. You have two options for that. First, you can use the built-in 38-second looper. You'll love having the ability to record your idea, then work on a second guitar part, lead, or solo over the top of it. If you've come up with a longer track that you want to capture, the ME-25 is also good to go. It features a USB connection and works as an audio recording interface. Just use the included Cakewalk SONAR 8.5 LE software or your current favorite program. That's definite value, considering the ME-25 is also a computer-free fiend for your stage shows and jams. In fact, the ME-25 is more than just portable and computer free — you can power it one six AA batteries (or an AC adapter), so you don't have to be tethered to the wall when you don't want to be.

There are a few more features you'll want to know about. First, there's free downloadable Librarian software. That means you can save your favorite presets to your computer, rather than only to the device, so if you come up with tons of them you can easily swap them out when you want, rather than have to delete them. Finally, the ME-25 features a built-in aux input so you're free to jam along with your music devices, say an iPod, a CD player... name it. Many guitarists love plugging the headphone jack of their laptop right into the ME-25 and taking a cruise through their iTunes library. It's easy, it's fun, and it's a really great way to get better.
