A Bass Player s Dream Come True

The BOSS ME-50B puts world-class bass effects in a rugged floor unit with easy pedal-style control. Effects are divided into six sections: Compressor Limiter, Master, Filter Tone, Drive Synth, Delay Modulation and Expression Pedal giving bassists a range of unique and powerful tones including new effects like Sound Hold, Octave Up and Kick Drum. Effects can be edited using 23 knobs and controlled via three built-in footswitches and an assignable expression pedal. This is the piece no bass player should be without! 

• Floor-based bass multi-effects processor with easy analogue control 
• Killer COSM Compressor Limiter and Drive effects, plus T-Wah, Slow Gear and Defretter 
• Innovative Sound Hold function for sustaining a low note while playing on top 
• Sound On Sound recording with new Kick Drum effect for keeping time 
• Dedicated knobs for each effect section – no menu-surfing! 
• Easy Tone effects with Preset EQ templates for quick tone editing 
• 3 footswitches and onboard expression pedal routed to 6 options like Octave, Wah, etc. 
• Solid metal case built to withstand abuse 

• Multi-Effects Made Simple:

  BOSS understands that bass players want access to powerful effects, but they don t want to get caught up in the menus and programming hassles of a multi-effects processor. Enter the ME-50B. Just like its guitar-oriented sibling, the new ME-50B puts BOSS finest multi-effects for bass into a convenient floor processor with the feel of a compact pedal. Forget about menus and cursor buttons. Just reach down and twist a knob!

  Independent COSM Compressor Limiter and EQ:
  Everyone knows that the fundamentals of good bass tone are compression and EQ. That s why the ME-50B features two dedicated sections for these essential effects. The Compressor Limiter uses advanced COSM modelling including a Natural compression setting that retains the nuances of your playing – to give you tight, punchy tone. Simply select the compressor Type and adjust the Sustain Threshold knob to get the tone you want. The Master section includes a 3-band EQ with a sweepable mid for precise tonal shaping.

  Get Creative with Cool Filter Tone Effects:
  The ME-50B includes a variety of unique tone-shaping effects just for bass. These include a handy Octave Up effect, which adds a note one octave above the original while retaining your natural bass sound – complete with adjustable drive on the octave-shifted note – plus favourites like Slow Gear, T-Wah and a Defretter effect for instant fretless sounds. Using the Tone effect preset, you can get quick tonal variations with preset EQs like Bottom Boost and Mid Shape .

  Incredibly Warm Overdriven Sounds and More:
  Want some extra bite? Switch on the ME-50B s Drive effects, which include settings like Muff Fuzz , Bass Driver , Natural and Metal to give you a range of overdriven distorted sounds. A new Hi Band effect creates a distorted sound on the high frequencies while keeping the lower frequencies intact – perfect for creating complex tones while keeping your original playing dynamics. There are also four synth bass sounds with superb tracking and natural feel.

  Sound On Sound with a Twist:
  Sound On Sound recording is very popular with guitarists, and now bass players can build their own loops, too. But the ME-50B can do even more. Using the new Kick Drum function, players can tap in their own kick drum and create loops over the beat. If that s not enough, check out the new Sound Hold function, which lets you endlessly sustain a low note while playing over it. With the ME-50B, bassists can take their playing to a whole
