A Huge Selection of BOSS Effects in One PedalNo matter what style you play, it’s easy to craft your own personal sound with the ME-80’s wide range of built-in effects. A complete history of gig-ready BOSS tone processing is at your command, from multiple overdrives and distortions to wahs, mod effects, pitch shifters, delays, and beyond. BOSS’ groundbreaking Multi Dimensional Processing (MDP) technology is represented with the unique, spacious ambience of Tera Echo and the distinctive tone-shaping possibilities of Overtone. Updated COSM preamps include new additions such as Crunch and Metal, plus an AC preamp designed for acoustic/electric guitar. The onboard expression pedal can be used for foot volume and pedal effects like wah, octave shift, and Freeze, and it’s also possible to control effects parameters such as mod rate, delay oscillation, and more for expressive real-time sound shaping. |
Instant Gratification with Dedicated KnobsUnlike typical menu-driven multi-effects processors that are complicated and unintuitive, using the ME-80 is as easy as using a stompbox. Effects are organized into eight logical categories that can all be active at the same time. Seven categories contain multiple effects types to choose from, plus dedicated knobs for selecting a type and adjusting it with a set of parameters you’d find in the pedal version of the effect. The Pedal FX category has its own knob for quickly assigning a particular effects type or function to be controlled by foot with the expression pedal. With this familiar and friendly interface, you’re able to dial up and play great tones instantly, just like using a large pedalboard filled with your favorite stomps. But a major advantage over that pedalboard is that you can to save all the current knob settings to one of the ME-80’s 36 user patch locations, allowing you to recall custom effects configurations at the touch of a pedal. |
Stompbox Immediacy or Multi-FX Power: You DecideThe hands-on experience that stompbox control provides is perfect for tweaking tones as you go. However, there are times when switching among an entire group of preset effects is more efficient, such as when you’ve set up complex tones for different songs. The flexible ME-80 supports either approach, giving you the best of worlds. In Manual mode, the categories function like individual stomp effects, with instant adjustment via the panel knobs and on/off control with dedicated footswitches. By entering Memory mode, seven footswitches are automatically reconfigured to select user or preset patches and patch banks, letting you recall complete multi-effects setups directly. One footswitch on the ME-80 is dedicated just for mode switching, so you can toggle between Manual and Memory modes any time you want, even in the middle of a song. |
New Footswitch Design Delivers Twice the ControlThe ME-80 offers easy usability while performing, with eight multifunction footswitches for direct control of effects on/off, bank/patch selection, and mode switching, plus convenient access to alternate functions such as tap tempo, tuner, looper control, and more. A special control (CTL) function is also assignable in each patch, letting you toggle grouped effects on/off or adjust a specified parameter in real time. The newly developed footswitch style provides two switches in the space occupied by one in previous designs, allowing BOSS to equip the ME-80 with a generous array of foot-operated controls while keeping the unit extremely compact and mobile. In addition to the eight main footswitches, the expression pedal is equipped with an integrated toe switch that toggles between foot volume and the current Pedal FX setting. |

It runs on batteries or from a wall wart, so it's easily portable.
It seems to be very quiet, the only thing I noticed is that when the compressor/expander is running at its highest gain, there is some noise, but it's unclear to me if that's coming from the pedal, or just the ambient noise from the instrument. In any case, it's an edge case and I don't consider it a serious issue.
The quality of the effects are very high - that's key here. It's not just convenient, it makes great output.
I've been playing electric rock and blues for 50 years as I write this, and this is easily the best f/x system I've used to date. Highly recommended.
It's alive! It's ALIVE! It only took 4 hours of reading manuals and downloading/installing software. But is now connected to my favorite DAW (digital audio workstation) and producing sound! Today is a success! I love Boss products. Not even close to the top of the line unit.. lol but good enough for me.

It's excellent and saves a mint vs. all of the individual pedals one would purchase as an alternative. But, given the ME-90 is now available, I recommend that the potential purchaser opt for that newer one instead.
The weakness of the ME-80 is the lower quality of its amp emulations. The ME-90 is supposed to correct that weakness.
