The Boss ME-80 has a wide range of drive settings that take you from mild boost and blues tones through to straight ahead rock and metal with some fuzz thrown in too. This video goes through all the different settings and compares the different drives available. They all sound real good through a decent amp and will reward the player who takes the time to learn the different nuances that each offer. It's a great multi Fx for all guitarists looking to expand and try different tones and colours, with the advantages of saving patches and simple and quick set up times. Check out our other Boss ME-80 video tutorials too !

As someone who plays classic blues as well as heavier metal genres, this video is *exactly* what I needed. Thanks!
Nice demo,trying various combos in each setting.Well done
I bought this specifically for the preamp and the second EQ FX section that the ME 80 offered. I have the ME 50. It's great but I needed something more. The ME 50 offers the variation button which combines the amp sounds with the stomp boxes, but with this one, I can adjust the amps sounds separately, along with the stomp boxes. Plus, I can turn the comp on and off with ease in real time.
Too good!
I love each drive and every distortion.
A slightly used one is currently being offered to me for sale...
This is a very good resource on the BOSS ME-80. The manual is QUITE sparse. Are there other videos of the other areas of the board (COMP/FX, MOD DELAY, etc)? Is anybody aware of any ME-80 guru's or user groups or reddits? Need a place to find more than just a retail sales review of the unit. Especially with compression, a what does each knob do video would be great.
That was a really good demo of the ME-80 bro. I am searching for something in a quick/easy all-in-one pedal board, and your demo of this worked. I want to test-drive one. I just ordered a used T.C. Electronics NOVA System pedal because it's laid out to be more like a bunch of analog pedals - not so digital. (I own a BOSS GT-100 and a GT-6 and old ME-50, but I am in search of a "Holy Grail". I must say (because I was in music retail for 17 years until 1997) that I really appreciated your demo. You stayed focused on the product and you weren't trying to make it all about your playing! I have seen a few demos tonight that were just plain dumb and vacuous because the demo guy was trying too hard to be funny and cheeky and ever-so-cool with his hot licks that he forgot the mission - TO RUN THROUGH THE PEDAL SO WE COULD SEE WHAT IT DID!!! Yours was a very informative run-through and I appreciate it. Please feel free to put me on your list of players who would like to see your demos of new product. I am sure you must sell a lot! Well-done and very much appreciated mate. Cheers. rf
Rick Francis have you found the holy grail yet. I'd love to know your thoughts on whether any multi effects stand up
how did you record the sound of this video?
NevadaMusicUK what were you running this for the recording...was it through an amp or straight out of the record/phones out?
I found my sweet spot “a dubious attempt to combine the sounds of Terry Katy (Chicago), Tom Scholz (Boston) and Brian May by selecting Metal DS, dialing back the gain to 3 or 4 and cranking up the tone to 6 or 7. Really gives it that filtered stack sound.
I know ME80 has been out nearly a decade now, an am looking for something real simple that sounds good for local gigs, without dealing with deep dive menus or tons of pedal and patch cables.
So far this is the best demo I’ve seen specialty the OD/DS aspects of this multi effects.
Thank you, probably gonna put an order for one of these, for the price, and sounds you can get from the basic OD/DS, it’s a steal..
Did you source what you looking for mate, I'm in the same position now,I had a Zoom G2.1nu only the switches are gone, decent for home use,I had it used for 25 quid so I ain't grumbling too much, just looking for a multi effects myself now 👍
@@noname1st139 I ended up with Boss GT1000, although I did try the line6 Helix(versatile) for a while, I prefer the Boss GT1000 for its amp like feel and sounds, effects are just as fantastic...
@@rockkstah2550 shit, I was hoping you'd say something in my price range mate 😂,I was looking at that earlier, look like a great piece of kit, and the helix sounded like a good 1, I don't like LCD screen display,I don't have faith in longevity so I think I'm going with the me 80, it's all analogue knobs,less complicated,hate menus on these things, I'm a newbie lol👍
@@noname1st139 ME80’s are good as well, in the end, the sound is all in the fingers..
@@rockkstah2550 very true mate, and I guess it's fine for home use,I am not recording professionally or playing live, just don't want loop cable's and several pedals and wires everywhere so I'm going with it 👍
I need to know the correct way to stack a Boss DS-2 Distortion pedal to the Boss ME-80. I'm not sure about which plug goes where. Could you possibly let me know how to do this? The distortion on the ME-80 is just not enough.
Just got mine love it
just got mine and its awesome
Does anyone know how to get a good tone for Hardcore on the ME-80? Like Heights or Hundredth?
Thanka for thr demo. Whats the pick up of your guitar?
can you do one on the CTL operation I find it very useful on stage when you want to add a sound like a distortion for solos to the existing user sounds.
Undre mig over at der ikke bliver svaret på hvilke forstærker der bruges og hvilke guitar ?.
What amp did you use?
Great tones no doubt
Hello sir i need help like bad, i just bought boss me 80 but when i turn on the distorion on the board, has a lot of static and sounds ugly, how do i fix??
What amp did you use? Very important
I have a question. With my current set up I run both a Bluesdriver and DS-1 at the same time to get a nice heavy (but not sizzly) distortion. Can I put a Bluesdriver and DS-1 on the same banked channel? Or can I only have one OD/Dist pedal on each channel?
Sam Weaver Studios I believe it’s only one od/ds on at a time. However, since you already have both the individual pedals, you can go guitar>individual pedal>boss me 80. I would keep use the actual blues driver.
Amp used please?
The turbo OD is very nice ;-)
Can I run a TC Electeonic G-Major 2 through this? And just use the pre-amp from the ME-80?
Thank you
🎸
Hi pmt peeps just curious is this me-80 still worthy in 2022? . I’m not into it for the stage I’m interested in just creating and writing my own music. and the analogue way the pedal works over digital is really appealing to me, I’m just wandering is it more a gig guys tool or does it also hold its own in a “studio” environment? .or do you have any recommendations to a “multi-job” pedal in the £250-£300 🇬🇧 range for creators- writer’s for home-studio sound quality. Loved the demo and any advice will be much appreciated thanks pmtv 🤘🎶🤘🇬🇧
It works well if you are recording studio. The overdrive in this is better than the boss overdrive pedal( i compared it side by side).
But for live...hmm, it doesn't cut in well when you are playing songs with 2 guitars in heavy distortion. I had tried different setting but the barred chords n solo just lost in the play. I can only cut in the mix if i turn on the volume very loud, and you got your singer covering his ear.I sold my unit for pedals for this reason and never look back.
The delay is very beautiful though, especially when u are playing 2 guitar on clean or chorus.
I mean, it really depend in your need n genres.
Is it possible to stack in manual mode? Like if I want a Blues Driver and the Big Muff on a clean pre-amp? In manual mode!
A Bond I don’t believe so, no. However you can get a physical version of the muff and go guitar>muff>me80. The EHX muff nano I believe is $60 new
But then there are two other processors that are really pulling at my heart of awesome guitar tones.
They are the Valeton gp100 and the Nux mg300.
The used me80 is offered to me at almost exactly the same price as that of the mg300 on Amazon.
It's making my head spin round and round and round and it's still spinning.
Roland
Nux
Valeton
I know I should go for Boss which is twice the price of the mg300 when new maybe even more but the one I'm offered no longer has the adapter.
Recording configuration???

Hello there! I am searching for a good way to record my Guitar, and if possible a microphone too. I looked for interfaces a long time, with which I would have to put on the overdrive for my metal sound on the computer. Now this Multi looks like an easy way to preset the tones instead. My question would be: How good ist it for recording, I'm assuming you can directly connect it with the computer? And is it a bad idea to connect a microphone the same way, through the "Guitar In" channel?
I think the best argument for a normal interface, besides the optional MIDI entrance for Mics, is, that I only have to record the guitar one time and then produce the sound I like, testing different sounds, while with the Multi I had to re-record each time I don't like the sound, isn't it so?
Thanks for the video, looking forwards for the answer.
This unit does connect to the computer and the quality is fine. It would seem that putting vocals through it on a clean setting or even with a little bit of re-verb or whatever would be fine. I really can't say that there would be a problem.
On second thought there is the issue of the 48v phantom power that some mics require and this pedal would not provide that so yea. I use the Scarlett 2i2 by Focusrite (200 bucks) for vocals and also to record the sound straight from my amp/cabinet set up. I think that is the best way to get just the sound you like.
Steven Mathis I too, like Devin, use the Focusrite 2i2. It's definitely worth investing in.
Is there a footswitch on this thing to help me switch from one preset to another?
yes
ANy ideas if Boss is going to kill the ME-80 style or update the ME-80 and give us the ME - 90?
Is the distortion DS-1 the same as the one in boss me 25
Hector Vazquez i think so, because both use the COSM processor
I bought it 6 months ago and used to record with it using the usb cable, now it has some annoying noise in the background the moment I plug it on the boss outpout. any suggestions?
Put a noise gate after your pedal in the signal chain, it will eliminate any hum coming from the pedalboard. I use a ISP Decimator2 and the results are shocking. Now zero hum goes into my amp!
Me70, and me80 has a noise gate
Make sure your using one of the approved BOSS power supplies. Can be finicky without. Not sure why.
5:31 Blues Tone🔥🤘💯
Can anyone tell me what's that song at OD-1 demo (0:40) ?
MrCyco1979 hells bells acdc
For the life of me, I can't good OD/DS out of mine. I'm running a white falcon through a Blues Jr, but all my distortion comes out shrill, digital, with no warmth
I have the same problem. ME-88 is a good general effects pedal but its distortion is pretty undesirable
@@theabsolute23
I sold it and I got a plumes from Earthquaker devices. Best overdrive pedal I’ve found
@@liligman I should look into that
I wasn’t a huge fan either so I tried to sell it. I wasn’t willing to take a 100 dollar loss on a brand new unit. I started using it a lot for the tuner, compressor, noise gate, volume pedal, and looper. Because I was using it for those features I just mentioned, I spent more time messing around with the other stuff I was disappointed with like the overdrives. I ended up really liking the unit. You’ll never get tube warmth from this, but you’ll get a close replication of the intended tones. I have the DS-1, Power Stack, and Metal Core pedals. People say the pedals sound different from the ME-80, I disagree. They sound very similar and often the same, the only thing that is different is some of the panels have one less knob, so there’s less versatility, The PowerStack doesn't have A spot in the overdrive selection, but you get the stack amp simulator, which I think is better sounding than the pedal. Most of those amp sims are essentially overdrive pedals with a three band EQ. There's some great tones in the amp sims. But still, it's not an authentic sound. As time goes on, I'm more and more impressed with what the ME-80 can do. If you’re having trouble dialing in good tones, you should try some of the presets in the memory bank. There’s also some really cool stuff you can do when you’re not in manual mode, I'm just beginning to scratch the surface. Having said all that, it’s still definitely not to tone, so I respect if people disagree.
I also find the distortions a bit disappointing but this video has demonstrated that I could get better results by using the tone dial more. I'm off to give my ME80 a 2nd chance, thanks.
0:07 No.10 FUZZ - Why is it the fuzz sound of the Electro Harmonics' BIG MUFF instead of the sound of a boss fuzz pedal?
it doesn't even sound like a big muff
Guitar single cooil ???????
If I want to add external distortion pedal where to connect it ?
Guitar - dist pedal - ME80 - amp
Can you stack overdrives on this one?
No
I still can’t get distorted noises
Such an insane value considering that this costs the same as 2-3 of their pedals. Seriously considering buying an ME 80.
Did you get it?
will boss make new pedal ME-90?
Like a total stomp feel multi fx with the ability to foot switch each type of effect available.
Hey guys! I have an really important question to you, PLEASE HELP! :)
Do the effects on this Multiple Effects Pedale sound like the normal single Pedals from BOSS?!
For Example, if I compare the "BOSS Disturtion DS1" with the Disturtion Mode on ME-80, will it sound exactly the same?!
I am playing on (by myself Modified) VOX VT20+ and combined it with the BOSS - DS1.
This is really important for me, because I am a student and don't have a lot of money :)
Thank you very much :)
@PMTVUK did you try it?
No the single overdrives are better!!
@@harryhamb Thank You!!!
It's only one of the crazy things I own.
Who can do that?
is it still worth it buying a ME80 in 2021?
Is it still worth buying me 80 in 2022?
If u jam or gig, and 2 guitars on heavy gain song, me 80 most likely to lost in the mix. For clean setting on both guitars, yup not too bad.
For home usage, decent enuff. Very stable unit.
Only the blues driver and fuzzes sound good. But it's worth it considering the rest of the board
I don't know why, but I can't get a good overdrive out of this pedal. The low end is always so distorted and makes a crackling sound.
DiggyKalborn did u find how to fix
It all goes down with your amp or headphones. Poor quality amp or headphone will never produce a good guitar sound and eq plays a major factor also.
Very different on each amp.
My mg 250 dfx has a creamy sound. But it has more range on another Randall on a stage I played. All with my pedal the same, a Boss Me-80
Line 6 Bro. Boss is Weak. Trust me...Even the Boss Metal Pedal Is Weak. Line 6 all the Way. METAL ALL THE WAY...
JESUS ALL THE WAY!
I have it...good pedal..but yes the weak point by boss are the overdrive sounds!! The me 70 has better tones!!
Una Distorcion para base
for turbo ds you said turbo overdrive
Mr brownstone
I was very disappointed with the sound of the amps simulation and the OS/DS section. I own the DS-1 for 20 years, and the metal zone for 2 years. From my point of view, the only way to get a useful sound out of the Me-80 is to disengage the amp simulator and the EQ. Nevertheless the distorted sound is artifical and is far far away from the sound of the single pedals. I used it in front of an amplifier.
I liked the clean sound, the delay/reverb, the build in noise gate, the flanger and chorus. I sold it already.
Yup...
Also, it doesn't cut in well when you are playing songs with 2 guitars in heavy distortion. I had tried different setting but the barred chords n solo just lost in the play. I can only cut in the mix if i turn on the volume very loud, and you got your singer covering his ear.I sold my unit too.
I love the roar using the ds2 and so easy to dial in.
The delay is beautiful though...
Это не обзор - судорожно покрутил ручки, никакой системы. Ламер!
Its Boss…you cannot get wrong with it…
On peut vraiment dire que ça ne donne pas envie d'investir dans l'engin ! Pas une seule qui sonne ....
I have it..overdrive and distortion are the weakest Points. from boss..but ME 70 way better..
