Thank you for making this video! its crazy how undocumented this is! I was losing my mind trying to get this changed. I read the manual and it vaguely made sense. This is what boss should be making to show how to change settings.
@@gibblsworthiscool I agree! And you’re welcome! Also, thank you for the comment and for watching!🎸🕶️
I just got this unit 4 days ago and I have already went to the boss tone studio and downloaded a few impulse responses and have 36 user presets saved . This is really easy, I read a bit watched some videos and then dove in . Highly recommend going this route ! This unit is capable of some awesome tones and sounds
This is very helpful. I'm glad I found your video. Thanks man!
One day, I wish there was a pedal where the reviewer said "All the presets are perfect...I didn't have to change a thing". (Even simple pedals seem complex)
99.9% of presets in ALL FX processors are great. Everyone’s just a friggn snob
This is great to know! Thanks for doing the research and figuring it out for us. You are a Rockstar 🙂
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching.👍🎸
Just got mine. Your videos are valuable. Thanks!

Awesome tip. Just got mine yesterday and this video helped a lot to help me keep my tones where I left off. Still diving into this thing and so far so good. Got this because I hate menu diving so hopefully I will achieve some good clean bluesy tones.
We’re in the same boat my friend!🎸😎

Thank you, right back at you!!
Great video thank you. I just bought mine this week and I was annoyed about it going to preset on booting and messing with the settings 👍🏼
Strange for them to have it that way out of the box, right?! Thanks for watching and your support!!😎🎸👍
I love it Crazy ❤🥰
yup, t\it's strange how they set this thing up. thanks for watching!
Thank you!
My pleasure! Thanks for watching and commenting
This is Sooooo helpful!!!! Question: Where can I find the description for "d1, b0, c1, etc" when editing on Manual Mode? THANKS AGAIN for this video. You are a life saver 🙏🏼
BT Dual is a worth while asset, thanks for the tip on the volume setting.
Love the btdual. Super useful. Too bad boss didn’t just build it into the product though
Thanks for that, that pre-set was annoying, great tip, and well explained.
Really glad it helped! I agree, very annoying. Hope you consider subscribing for more me90 and guitar vids. Thanks for watching and your support🎸😎👍

@@24-7Guitars subscribed 👍 man, I just bought the ME90 and those knobs were driving me nuts. I was like "where did that sound go." I began to confuse myself as to whether red light was preset or blue 😂
@@presentelaw I know, I felt the same way at frist!
thanks for this video, this issue was very frustrating for me.
My pleasure! Thanks for watching and your support👍🎸
I got the ME-90 based on its ‘analogue’ appeal only to be frustrated by the preset levels overriding the knobs. Thanks for this video! It’s the way I want it now. The Boss ‘map’ didn’t get me there 😂
Yup, I totally hear you👍 glad the video helped. Thanks for watching and your support🎸🎸
The Stonehenge Preset. “In ancient times, hundreds of years before human history, there lived an ancient people, Boss Engineers. No one knows who they were, or what they were doing, but their legacy remains, hewn into the ME-90”
LoL🤣🤣🤣
haha!😂
Nice Little Kiddy Popups!
Thanks for the video. Could you do one, where you dial in some tones that you would use?
That’s next my friend! Thanks for watching😎🎸
Thanks! This has been a problem. But I get why. Let’s say you like a preset (and all the original ones are pre-loaded in the user section) but want to tweak some levels. Then you could go to Manual and make the adjustments and save them. The other way, admittedly better for Manual use, you can’t edit a preset on the fly (you can however do that on a computer or iPhone).
Thanks, this was really useful.
I bought my ME-90 two weeks ago and have been fiddling around the settings in a more or less puzzled state since. So this really helps. Now I just need to find out why the overdrive pedal sometimes just doesn't seem to create overdrive. But I'm sure there's a similar trick out there.
Thanks for watching! Glad it helped👍 that’s strange about the overdrive pedal. Which overdrives are you using?
@@24-7Guitars Thanks for your reply. Well, several times now when I switch on the overdrive pedal of the ME-90, the sound remains basically free of distortion (whereas the other effects work). But I get it to work after turning all the knobs. I will check the settings as you explain in your video, hopefully this will solve the issue. 🙂
@@cismercier8009 yes, it sounds like you need to change the universal setting to manual as I show in the video. It must be going to a predetermined user preset setting.
Me too. The technology is fantastic but they need a simple A, B, C…manual to walk you through everything.
Thank you so much, this was driving me crazy! Please could you make a video about connecting the Bluetooth to a phone? M
So glad that helped!! Absolutely! I’ll get one out shortly. Be sure to sub so you don’t miss it 👍😉
I just got my ME 90 in the mail yesterday. I would be very interested in a video where you go through your workflow for setting up a tone.
He just replied to another comment that his next video will be that. The ME70 was simple. This has an App as well, tho, which I downloaded and looks really easy to set up your signal chain.
Actually working on that this week! Stay tuned
@@jeffrey.a.hanson Ive been wondering about the wireless adapter and the app. Is there a cheaper way to get the adapter? Its not too pricy at $60 but if I could get a 3rd party adapter cheaper I will. Do you know of any?
@@24-7Guitars awesome! I subscribed, so Ill get the notification. Thanks for pumping out these tip videos. Im going to be gobbling up any info you throw at us lol.
@@matttactics8275 thanks for subscribing! I’ll keep ‘em coming😎
Hi, thanks for the video. Do you know if i have to keep batteries inside so the settings aren't lost when its not connected to a charger?
Never thought about that! Probably not an issue. Thanks for watching and the support👍😎🎸
Thanks for the video. Recently got mine. Manual is not so good all over the place and missing critical info. It would be nice if they included a companion manual with all the parameters like you explained. I'm still trying to figure out how to save a preset ? I'll check your other videos for a how to, Thanks again😎
I agree! But it is available online on their website. As for saving a preset, I’ll make a video about that and put it up shortly. It’s mainly about choosing where you want to save it and pushing the write button
Just located the Parameter guide on the website. Thanks!@@24-7Guitars
@@grooveu1965 awesome! Let
Me know how it works out. I just saved a bunch of acoustic presets and took it out to an open mic.
Thank you so much! The manual is definitely a bunch of crap! You explained exactly what I wanted to know. I want my knobs to stay the same as before I turned off the unit. Why Roland choose to default to their preset I have no idea! Makes no sense.
you read my mind!
LoL, it’s a special gift!🤣👍
Are the effects and tones from this unit any better than those found on the old Cube XL amps? Just wondering because I am using a Marshall Origin 20 head and cab and I’m wondering if this would sound good. When I occasionally plug in to my old Cube 40xl it sounds like a toy. But that might be the speaker, cab and various other factors.
Thanks for watching! Yes, much better than the old cube amps. I would check it out for sure. Check out the other me90 videos on the channel to hear more examples. I hope you consider subscribing for other videos. 👍😎🎸
Great video. I actually prefer the n1 mode and I can see why it’s really useful. If I’m editing a saved preset, let’s say the gain, I have no idea what level it is currently at - there is no indicator to tell me. Let’s say I want to turn it down by 1 or 2, it’s saved at 80 out of 100, but I don’t know this. My gain knob is currently at position 20, which doesn’t match the saved setting. If I try to edit this preset in n0 mode, and touch the gain knob, it will jump to 20 and I have no idea what the original value was. With n1, I can move it around safely until it catches the saved level 80, then fine tune it to 78
Fair enough. I definitely see the value when using mostly saved presets. Thanks for the input and for watching!!👍🎸
But whenever you turn the effect off and then on again it will jump back to the saved value right? In this case 80
@@pstrokeslibsarcticI think so, yes. But for my use case this is fine, I’m using predefined/saved multi effects. I’m not going to turn one on or off during a gig. I’d much rather this than accidentally change the value and have no idea what the original value was
Hi Lorne, thanks for your video. Please can you tell us where you found the info of this "codes"?
Sure thing. It’s on the boss website. I Googled boss me90 manual. Then when on the boss site the products are in alphabetical order. Go to the M and click on me90. I’ll see if I can find a direct link for you, but that’s the process in the meantime.👍

Is it possible to make the expression pedal more sensitive to the touch to activate wah-wah or freeze function?
Good question! I’m really not sure. I don’t think so, but I’ll look into it.👍 thanks for watching and supporting the channel🎸🎸
How do you use FX2? I want use t. wah up and octave at the same time, but they are on the same knob. Isn’t there a way to get fx2 to do the octave?
I’ll have to look into that. I agree, that would be a very useful feature! Unfortunately I think you can only use it for reverb or the fx loop. I’m out of town at the moment but I’ll check it out when I return. Thanks for watching and the support 🎸😎👍
Hi! When you connect the me-90 to a katana do you put it in the input or in the return socket on the back of the Katana? Thank you
It depends on if you want to use the preamp models from the me90 or just use it as an effects unit. Both ways work. I did hook it up in the store through the loop of the katana and it sounded great!
@@24-7Guitars hi 24-7Guitars! Thank you for your reply. Yes, I do like to use preamps on the unit also. Do you just have one cable from the mono out of the ME-90 go into the return socket of the katana? Or do you use two cables sent and return from the Katana into the ME-90? Hope you could clarify it a little bit more how you hook it up, thank you 😊! Have a nice day
@@laurensdalhuisen8073 I really don’t remember what I did. I think I just plugged it in from the send into the return of the katana? I’ll have to revisit that and let you know. Once I get my amp shipped to me I’ll be able to mess with it and get back to you. Sorry! It was a little while ago. I was just tryin to see what the preamp sounded like if I plugged into a simple power amp or maybe even a powered speaker. It did actually sound pretty good.
I encourage you to try out the ToneX Pedal ..
That little is so amazing .. unbelievable the sounds!!
Sold most of my gear and only using that from now on
Ya I’ve been curious about that one. I’ll def check it out at some point 👍🎸
You still need external pedals for some things with a tonex. The drives, boosts, fuzz, are there but things like reverb and modlation aren't.
How fix back my boss me 90. My Bank patch is not on standby mode.??😢
Здравствуйте.Я правильно понял,что для сохранения ручных настроек на табло должен быть символ П и цифра 0?Заранее спасибо за ответ.
Good morning. I ask for help regarding the ME 90. Trying the delays: MODULATE, WARM, TAPE, ANALOG, STANDARD and also the one in the EQ/FX2 part, they are practically all the same and not even a stereo one. Is this the case or did they give me a defective pedal board? I've been using Boss pedals for a long time but never with this limit. Thank you and greetings.
G.
Strange! The tone of the delays are definitely different. What are you playing it through?
but is there a stereo of the deals I mentioned?
Hi. Can you connect from the Bluetooth adapter to a DAW wirelessly to record? Is there any latency?
That’s a good question. I haven’t tried. All I’ve used it for is to connect my phone for jam tracks etc. I’ll look into it
Thanks
@@24-7Guitars
What is the meaning of H0 sir? Mine is H1 what does effects? Thanks
Hi snd God bless. Theirs an option before the one you are mentioning. You have it at H1. Mine came at H0. What does that do? Should I change it ?
H1 let’s you preview the bank switch before switching and H0 is more an an instant switch. Depends on how you like to use it.
@@24-7Guitars
Thankd for taking the time to respond.
The presets are interesting on my ME80, but I live in manual mode. They don't have any ME90's at the local music stores, can you tell me are the amp sounds noticably better and more dynamic?
I can’t say, I haven’t played an me80. Sorry!
@@24-7Guitars C.O.S.M vs A.I.R.D.
I am considering the Boss ME-90. However, I would like to know if you can use it also as MIDI controller for other amp sims such as TH-U, Neural DSP etc… ? Anyone could confirm that? Thank you.
Nope, it’s not a midi controller. Thanks for watching the video! I hope you consider subscribing for more guitar videos and content 😎👍🎸
Do you know if you can update the ME-90 software via Bluetooth from the tone studio app on an iphone or does it have to be via laptop?
You have to plug it in via usb c. I just went through it myself. It’d be nice and convenient if you could do it that way. Thanks for watching and your support😎🎸
Thanks for the confirmation. Really appreciate the work you put in here. @@24-7Guitars
One last Q! I've a fender tonemaster deluxe reverb which has no FX input and I've been seeing a lot of other channels talking about using the 4 cable method to get optimal tone from the ME-90, but you can't do that without the FX Input - Have you any info on using the ME-90 in amps without an FX Input - does it make a real diff? This is all new to me !
@@brianmcdermott3162 actually, I prefer to use it as a straight pedalboard straight into the input of the amp and bypass the preamps and just use all the effects. So yes, go for it!🎸👍
Got you, that's what I was thinking. Assume it's just a matter of switching to manual to bypass the pre-amp? I just received my ME-90 yesterday! @@24-7Guitars
Is there a simpler pedal thats similar to this? This is just too confusing for me to try to use in manual mode, I thought it would be so much easier.
Don’t get discouraged, it is actually very simple to use in manual mode. You just need to make a small adjustment to make it easier (as described in this video). It’s really very much like just using some stomp boxes. Go to a music store and give it a shot.👍
Sorry for the stupid question, but how do I connect the ME-90 to Boss Tone Studio on my computer?! For 20 years I worked only with cubes and this is a problem for me! I downloaded the application, the drivers, everything that is on the boss's site, I connected it to the USB, but there is no connection to the Me-90, it does not work!!?
I know this may seem silly, but have you tried uninstalling all other boss apps and reinstalling them and connecting via the cable?
@@24-7Guitars I will try to do it this way. Thanks
I'm still looking how to save the sounds not sure is a little confused
I’ll make a quick video this week if I can for you. Make sure you look out for it
Anyone know if you can connect your guitar to the ME-90 wirelessly and the ME-90 wirelessly to the amp?
It would require using separate wireless systems
Thanks, so using a Boss wireless or similar system x 2 - one for guitar to ME-90 and one from ME-90 to the Amp? @@24-7Guitars
Thanks. Other problem : when I am in distorsion (OD DS) impossible to increase the volume with boost (on EQ FX2). The boost works only in clean. If someone has an idea to fix that…
That’s a strange one. Is this when playing through an amp or direct through the unit / headphones or a speaker etc?
@@24-7Guitars playing through an amp. I you have the ME90 you can see that. The boost increases the drive but not the volume
@@jeanprune3255 that actually depends on how you have the amp set up. Which amp are you playing through? It may be that there isn’t any headroom left in the amp if it’s already maxed out for volume. For me, the boost does give extra volume if there’s still headroom left in the amp and the gaind drive is set to about unity volume or just above the amp volume
Can this also be done in Tone Studio?
Yes, I believe it can. Thanks for watching!
Thanks. Have had any success finding a good boost option for solos while using it in manual mode? Like you I want to use the ME-90 as a stompbox pedal board.
@@mfohr yes, I use the boost in the eq section to give it a lift for my solos👍
I wonder how many ME users actually use presets…ME peeps seem to be old school ‘physical pedal’ guys/gals.
I tried the Headrush route for a year, but went back to my ME-70. I like to be able to reach down and turn a knob mid song if something is off. Excited to get the ME-90.
That’s definitely the category I fall into! I will give it a try with some presets though. Never too old to learn new tricks- or am I? LoL🤣🎸👍
I like both I just hate hidden settings menus. That's why I like the me series so much.
Presets - Seems like the ME-90 presets were copied form the ME-80 presets. Need I have to say the presets suck.
@@JE-western-rider almost all presets suck. They are overblown examples
ME 50 🤔hey man, I haven't even opened mine yet, but I am pretty sure that U1 and whatever, would be user settings and P1/whatever would be presets already installed. If not, well that is just backwards. Also, this is the first review that I have heard of this issue at all. Kind of weird bro. 😬
LoL🤣🤣
😊
So I can use Bluetooth headphones also
Unfortunately, no. It’s a receiver, so you can send Spotify or whatever music source through the unit to practice with regular headphones plugged into it, for example
Have mercy 😢
it's not too bad
Love your videos, really appreciate you making stuff like this. I've been playing with the ME90 for a week now and was equally annoyed by this out-of-the-box setting so your video really helped. Then I found this guy: ruclips.net/video/8wh4zILQTUo/видео.html with the older unit explain how he dials in his main tones on a user pre-set (clean, breakup, distortion, etc) on the 4 pedals and then clicks into manual mode to add MODs on the fly in the song. I thought this was an interesting way to use the multi-fx and the first time I saw it on YT so figured I'd flag it up in case anyone was curious as to why boss sets things up this way. Maybe it's obvious to others but it confused me !
Thanks for watching and your support! Glad you like the videos👍👍😎🎸
I have to be born again I think . that is for UFO ,they can understand this shit ! may be
🤣 I feel that way too, sometimes. This fix shouldn’t be too bad though. Just follow the steps
