Control Pedal for Independent Control
In addition to the pedals used for switching Patches, the ME-8 also comes with a Control pedal that allows you to control a selected function separately. How the Control pedal is to be used can be set independently for each Patch.
“Harmonist” Creates Three-Note Harmonies
Provides a Harmonist function, which adds two notes of harmony (matching the key of the song) to the existing guitar sound.
Great Selection of Distortion Effects
Offers five different distortion effects produced by analog circuitry. Equipped also with an “External Overdrive” jack, which can be used for hooking up a distortion effect unit you already have, and include it for use by a Patch.
Provides 23 Different Effects
Contained onboard are 23 effects, including the newly developed “Humanizer” effect (which simulates the human voice), and a “Ring Modulator” which produces a metallic sound. You can use up to 11 of these effects simultaneously.
Allows You to Store 50 Versions of Your Settings
Once you have a variety of settings that you like, you can store the whole set of them as a Patch. Up to 50 such Patches can be placed into the ME-8’s internal memory. Any Patch can be quickly and easily recalled using the Pedal/Patch buttons.
Manual Mode Provides an Array of Pedal Effects
In the Manual mode, you can switch on or off each internal effect by stepping on a corresponding pedal. This means you can use the ME-8 as if it were an array of several compact effects pedals.
Pedals Can Control Tempo Delay and Rate
The Tempo Delay/Tempo Rate functions allow you to change the delay time or rate by changing the tempo at which you depress the pedal. Now you can change the delay time or rate quickly and easily even during live performances.
Chromatic Tuner Built-In
Since the ME-8 includes a chromatic tuner, you can rapidly tune up without having to change any connections.
Natural Patch Selection -Transitional Delay/Reverb
Even when switching from a Patch that uses Delay/Reverb to one that doesn’t, the effect sound will not be cut off in an unnatural way.
