  • Is there any way to turn on wah and the other effects from ur pedal when you're running on manual mode? Thanks for your time.

  • Tried out the boss me 70 and the pod hd 300 equally at allans last week....the pod hd 300, in my opinion, is easily worth the extra $30!! I thought i was 100% sure of the boss me70 from all the online reviews, but believe me, its not!...

  • i have a boss me50 that i love so much. i'd like to get my hands on the me70 as well. the preamp is perfect for recording when just plugging the pedal in

  • can u use any 120 ac adaptor or do u need to buy the one made by boss

  • all i want to do is use effects separately or combo without pre setting anything. is this possible?

  • @bryans42 Hi Bryans42, this is a very easy pedal to use without pre-setting anything. The ME70 has 36 Preset Patches by default. Just switch to memory mode and every pedal become a preset effect patch!

  • is this pedal good for bass too? i can understand how the distortion may not work so well with the bass, but everything else seems awesome.

  • @jeffgnr hey man my friend has a geddy lee fender bass and plugged my me70 into his amp for fun.the od'ds is kinda pointless, besides the light overdrives and boosts. also, the compressor/ autowah stuff sounded really good. if u use delay, it sounds pretty standard, and phasers/ flangers and other modulations sound good as well as reverb. totally worth it

  • the camera guy seems to have a touch of ADD. He can't seem to follow what's going on or stay off the zoom button. Fail.

  • where are all the heavy tones!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • ime not a camra man just a drummer any wonder,,

  • I got this pedal and i hate it. I couldn't get the pantera 5 minutes alone sound not even close. I couldn't get a good blues tone at all either.

  • @Axeslingersrevenge who says that it's the pedal?

  • no as nice as a 50 just more crap on it

  • What's with the retarded camera guy

  • from my experience, Boss are GREAT for effects and stuff, but really lack when it comes to a real heavy distortion. if you want a great metal sounding pedal, have a look at something made by line 6 or digitech.

  • While i'm using the recording looper, can i mix the delay effect with other effects like wah or overdrive?

  • Man i want mine to sound like Cowboys from Hell distortion but I can't get it close - if anyone knows a link to a dimebag type setting please let me know. Boss webpage was no help

  • I wish he would stop talking to the pedal and more to the camera. I also think the camera guy is pretty much baked and shouldnt be filming.

    Plus there isnt any "sound like a violin" setting. What the hell is up with this review.

    Lol @ 5:15 when the camera guy is like "BOSS ME70 OH MY GOD -shakes camera- ... so much for being 'serious about your music'.

  • this pedal sucks or maybe its my amp

  • @visualkeirockstar It's your amp :P

  • I love you mate

  • it sounds great here, but it seams to suck the tone out of my guitar (and i have a nice rig). the gain is either wayy too trebly or too bassy, and almost all of the other effects add gain(eg: compresser, delay, defretter). anyone know why?

  • how do you do the violin sound

  • it would be great if you post a video of boss me20..great demo! thanks

  • does this have the ability to save loops?

  • @ModPCLM Yes, it has a built in 38 seconds looper with unlimited overdubs

  • great - you are good player

  • This is probably one of the most informative videos on the ME 70 Ive seen. Thanks

  • I would like to know what's effect or Patch you use first with de pedal expresion, what kind of wah wah? add chorus? How do you get this sound? you play it on minute 1:30

  • Can the boss ME70 record using ableton live via USB?

  • @HybridSalvation you shouldn't go from the board to the computer. It's alot better to mic an amp that you're playing through IMO.

  • @HybridSalvation did you have any luck with that? i have ableton which i used with my korg pandora px5d. it recorded unbelievable clear. im planning to get an me70 too.

  • which pedal is better between the me70 or the rp500, I need some recomendations, hope you answer!

  • @stevevai0 I guess that the Boss me70 is better, because the sound of the digitech products are more digital and sintetic (in my opinion) but it's all in the personal preferences. I really recomend both.

  • @twsafarn do you think it would be a good idea to buy the rp500??...and combine it with an overdrive individual pedal of boss? hope you answer

  • @stevevai0 Well, yes, is a very good idea. I recomend test both pedals and some individual pedals and make a decision. Keep in mind the comfort, ease and quality of the product when you test it. I hope this helps, and good luck with your choice, I'm completly sure that you will be happy with anyone of those pedals. ^^

  • @twsafarn which boss pedals would you recomend me to combine with the rp500 to get a sound like steve vai's, your answers mean a lot to me..

  • @stevevai0 I think that the HyperMetal is good for that, but the Digitech RP500 have a lots of distorsions and overdrives based on Boss, MXR, DOD, Ibanez, and other pedals.

  • @stevevai0 The hard way in the Steve Vai's sound is the tone, you can get it with EQ (from the RP500 or an individual pedal) a good delay (RP500 have it) Reverbs (RP500) and the wahs and Whammy (Digitech have the best simulation of Vox and Cry Baby Dunlop wahs so you have it in the RP). Maybe you don't need another pedal, but it's all in your ears.

  • @twsafarn Thanks for the answer, and what can you tell me about the KORG AX3000g?

  • ive got the me 70 and it is absoloutly incredible

  • i have got rp 500 + guitar rig 4 and it produce sound i was looking for

  • I finally got my ME-70.

  • @godzilla964 Im new to the multi-effects arena, Does it have filter effects?

  • @godzilla964 worth it?

  • is the camera man high?

  • LOL :D Somethink like that came to my mind as well.

  • The price of all digi stuff is 10 % after 2 to 3 years. I use analog pedals.

  • 10% what?

  • every time i play this in GC it sounds like crap cuz people mess the settings up,  if anybody has the me70 make some videos

  • @RemoKinga

    that's why you should support your local music store instead of GC

  • vox tonelab le V.S. boss me70 what do you think

  • @AYONPA I had the same question for a while, so I went to my local music store and tried both of them out. The tonelab's tube distortion sounded nicer than the me70's digital distortion, but I ended up settling on the me70. Here's why--for $300 (me70) I get a pedal with a phrase loop. Tonelab is $400, no loop, but better distortion. You can always buy the me70 and put out an extra $100 for a better distortion pedal to use with it. I'm happy with my purchase and the distortion's been fine so far.

  • @AYONPA I used both, and the answer is what you're looking for.

    The Boss definitely beats off the Tonlab LE on its effects.

    About the amps, DONNO, I have been using my personal amp on both.

  • its really not, this guy just sucks. im playing it thru a marshall stack and the tone is godly....

  • this is bang for your buck

  • I want that and the 65 deluxe reverb amp for christmas.

  • DEFINITELY worth the 300$ tag

  • the price for a boss me-70 now is about 300$ on zzounds

  • Its been that price for awhile...on other sites that is.

  • wats the difference with a BOSS ME-20, BOSS ME-50 and a BOSS ME-70???

  • only has some improvements. But really you should get the me-70 , and if you have more money I recomend the gt-8

  • oh thnx! y? wat is so good about the GT-8?

  • first of all the price difference to the ME-70 is not much. And it has everything you need, from the basics like distortion, delay, chorus, wha. also has some good clean, but has more things for you. if you are up and purchases, please tell me the price.

  • well i think in US dollars its about $400 on eBay. (inc post) I was trying to buy 1 but thought id just get something more basic like a boss MT-2 then maybe get ME-70 down the track.

    ....btw ive been looking at the difference with the ME-70 and ME-50, the ME-70 deffinately has more features BUT, i think the ME-50 has more OD/DS settings than the ME-70

  • the larger the number the better

  • Has Boss ME-70 got acoustic simulator?

    Please answer me

  • I just bought one, and it's pretty incredible. You really do get the Boss pedals in one unit, and it's adjustable like the pedals are. The price sucks, but it's worth it if you want a great multi effects unit, and it's cheaper than buying all the pedals separately. The loop, and various other delays are simply awesome.

  • i want the me-70. how much the me-70? please in dollars

  • u can get them really cheap on ebay and thats brand new with it sealed in the box... price is around $420 AUD (Australian Dollars)

  • thank you man

  • another video said they were affordable... my ASS. friggin £230/ 270$!!!!

  • It could easily be $400 in the U.S. but it's only $300 in the U.S

  • I want the ME-70.

  • can the me-70 delay do the Dotted 8th note??

  • i think soo

  • Are the footswitch and expression pedals metal too or plastic?

  • Comment removed

  • i heard the expression pedal is metal

  • The footswitches are very sturdy plastic, the expression pedal is metal.

  • Metal

  • can someone help, my friend has an me-20 and i find it fun, cool and easy to use, however seeing as this is more effect-loaded than the me 20, will it still be easy to use?

  • of course, cause it only uses knobs. like multiple individual pedals stick togheter.

  • How do you change the tempo of it

  • Kool but how do you change the tempo of it

  • Can you use the delay pedal while looping

  • there is also delay on the mod section

  • this guy has no fucking idea what hes talking about

  • Hi Ollie

  • is the phase looper able to like play really long guitar riffs over and over again?

  • i think it's like 30 seconds or so.

  • 38 (;

  • purty damn close init?

  • lol yep hahaha

  • Thomann inf. says 40sec.

  • Up to 38 seconds... :)

  • 37 seconds,

  • lol, whatever works out for you it's fine. But yeah, maybe the ME-70 works out better then that.

  • can i use this pedal in the guitar rig with no amp?

  • Yeah, goes straight in the mixer or with headphones.

  • Comment removed

  • noone's using the core distortion... goddammit i want to hear that one

  • I've tried the metal distortion on this ( I don't think he did on this vid, 'cause if he did, he used some shitty settings ) , because I'm looking for that kind of distortion too, and I think it's very nice, so I do think that this pedal is good for metal.

    And I agree that it sounds like rock 'n roll, so don't worry : P

  • I am using a zoom 505 ( as someone dropped a pint on my other fx pedal at a gig XD ) and it sucks :(

    you cant change tremelo speeds and stuff, and theres a little drop out when switching patches!

    I really want to get this,.

    im in a band that uses synth with arpeggiators and stuff. can effects be set to specific tempos in bpm with this?

    Also does this pedal have a drop out at all like if you held a chord and switched patch while it was sustained?

    please reply

    x

  • yes you can set tempo

    just hold the pedal 2 seconds and tap hold 2 seconds again to get out of tapping mode

  • yeah i know but can you set it to specific tempos? such as 140bpm?

    Coz i dont think i will trust tap tempo if playing to a click track :(

    Unless you could tap your foot on EVERY click for the whole phrase you need to play, would that ensure that the tempo would stay exact??

    x

  • click track???

    i dont know what it is but let me get a way for you

    search for a online metronome or if u have one dont set the tempo at your wish tick at the same tempo with that effect and voila

    btw this doesnt work for compressor fx like slowly swell

  • Buy this and its all you will ever need :)

  • question. does this thing makes an 2 octave up??? (sorry for my english)

  • can the phrase loop feature be used in the memory mode?

  • GT-10!!!!!ever

  • gt-10 and me-70, which one better???somebody can tell me?

  • The GT-10 has much more features than the ME-70 but the sound quality is the same. ME-70 is cheaper and easier to use, so that's up to you...

  • this guy is shit he is not demonstrating properly

  • No shit eh! Do you think I didn't try it? Fuck there are stupid people on the internet.

  • i can use more than one pedal at once right?

  • how do you use and set the harmonist thing?

  • its really not that difficult unless youre fucking retarded you tur the knob by harmonist and theres a knob that says harmony or something like that and raises and lowers it...not that difficult

  • How is the sustain in this effect pedal?

  • Should I buy this thing or spend 400 bucks in a pelaboard?? PLEASE I NEED HELP

  • you can buy the me 50 i have it and is basiclly the same and is not expensive

  • The ME-70 is a really cool effectboard, it's got all the cool effects, it sounds good, it's sturdy and it's cheap. It's definitely worth the money.

  • It has pretty much 25 BOSS pedals in it, so chose, 5pedals or 25. its got more options.

  • i would much rather go with the digitech

    RP500. it is true bypass so it doesnt change the sound of your amp, it just adds the effect. but the boss isnt true bypass so it will slighty change the tone of your amp.

  • so i guess its good if you have a shit amp?

  • well it may actually help with a shit amp because boss pedals boost the amp tonality so yeah i guess.

  • But can someone run it through simple speakers or a cab that would be great lol you wouldnt have to pay for an amp since that pedal has it all So can it play the role of an amp head ps i feel stupid for posting this haha

  • Actually, if you have a neutral amp, eg a stereo with an aux input , or run it directly into the mixer of a P.A. or recording mixer, you don't need an amplifier. Running it straight through a cab is impossible, since the pedal alone does not have the neccessary wattage to power, e.g. a 4X12 cab.

  • sry not for using punctation youtube wouldnt let me post a comment

  • just ordered mine today, cant wait to get it!

  • Put it through the clean channel, with gain low, idiot

  • I got rid of my me-50 because it was just too noisy into a high gain amp, white noise galore. I'll bet this one suffers from the same problem. I'm tired of buying their multi-pedal platforms because they refuse to get it right in hopes you'll upgrade next year, very frustrating.

  • There is a noise suppressor...

  • what those that do the noise suppressor

  • it suppresses noise.....

    Damn, I just realised that this almost sounds like that stupid dialogue from Rambo III...

    lol

  • URGENTLY..

    May I Know The Latest Price Of BOSS ME70 In US Dollars Please...

  • 300$

  • 300 bucs

  • Comment removed

  • Ummm, what should i do, buy a cheap amp with none effects and this pedal, or a more exspensive amp with lots of digital effects?? Line 6 Spider III, or morgan 30 watt amp, and this pedal?

  • How experienced are you with a guitar? I mean, since it seems like u dont have a amp already :)

    I just bought a boss me70 the other day, waiting for it to get shipped. I have a cube 20x, which is just a 20 watt, however it plays great and has a very good sound.

    So I would recommend a boss me70 and a decent amp, if not the spider III is a really nice amp, there I would go for the 120watts, since its only about 100 bucks more, and gives a much better and wider sound, good for loud playing.

  • i have an amp, but it sucks, but i dont think that will matter, because i cant play loud at my room. My question really, was would a shitty amp destroy the sound quality and effects? Ive been playing for 7 months, check ou my channel if u want to know about how good i am.

  • Really depends on the amp mate :) If the sound is clean and wide you shouldnt worry, and should go for the pedal board which will give you lots of practice using pedals & effects. :) Go for the me70 :)

  • Is the EQsection for the pedals etc overdrive and distortion or is it just for the COSM preamp models?

  • The EQ and the COSM models cannot be used simultaneosely, but either one can be used with any of the effect pedals or a combination thereof.. So you can either have the effects with EQ or effects with COSM PreAmp, not a preamp with separate EQ.

  • So the eq that is right by the preamp selector always works on the preamp right?

    I'm just not clear on what you are saying

  • not exactly, if you use the COSM amp models, the EQ behaves like the tone control on an amp, but it is possible to run the EQ as a standalone equalizer without the amp modeling engaged. In this case it works as a four band EQ, whereas in modelling mode, you have only three bands, since the first button acts as the amps gain control. You can also bypass the EQ and preamp section entirely.

  • HI Can you give mew some settings I can use on ME-70 to get a less high gainy distortion sound. I have a Marshall TSL601(Tube amp). I have 2 other amps (Marshall Valvstate and Line 6) and the same thing happens. Thanks.

  • Try dialling down the level in the preamp section (the righmost knob in that section) and, if you're using one of the amp models, lower the gain. If that doesn't work, switch off the EQ/PreAmp section entirely and experiment with the distortion settings. If you are running the board in the fx loop of your amp, you shouldnt use the distortion effects at all, since the fx loop is primarily for modulation effects. If you want to use distortion, connect the pedal directly to the amps input jack

  • Can you program the intelligent harmonizer according to key, major or minor chords and scales? Or does it only harmonize just a certain key like zoom multi effects?

  • you can program it watch the original demo from boss..

  • you can even change it on zoom. Anyway, Zoom sucks. I own one and i'll be buying an ME-70 soon. Well, that's just my opinion, each to his own.

  • Yeah same , Ive a G2 1.U and it sucks so badly , Getting one of these this week !

  • hi ollie
