SKU: BOSSES5

Product Description

The Boss ES-5 is the answer to your pedalboard tap dancing fears. Everyone has a pedalboard it's hard to be a gigging guitarist without one. Unfortunately tap dancing on pedals to get your next tone is still a problem a lot of people suffer with. The ES-5 fixes that with 5 independent pedal loops, amp channel switching and full MIDI control you can control your entire rig with just this pedal.

5 Different Pedal Loops

With the ES5 you have 5 different pedal loops which you can plug any of your pedals into and then control. So if you want to go from a clean channel with compression and reverb and change to your amps lead channel with an EQ pedal, reverb, delay and boost pedal as well it only takes one switch press rather than 5+.

These loops can be programmed to be in any order so if you suddenly decide that you want the reverb to change from being in front of your drive to after it is really simple to do without having to unplug anything. This gives you ultimate creativity in optimizing your pedalboard layout without ever having to physically move your pedals.

Manual or Preset Mode

With these different modes you can control your pedalboard however you need it. In manual mode you can turn off each of the 5 loops as you want meaning that even if you don't have your pedals accessible on your board you can still control each of your 5 loops on the fly. In preset mode you can instead switch between 5 different programmed presets for each bank. There are enough presets for a long gigs worth of sounds but when you want to work out your sound the manual mode gives you that extra control

Amp and Midi Control

Controlling your pedals is all well and good but what if you have MIDI capable gear or need to switch channels on your amp- Well it can handle those fine as well. If your amp supports MIDI or 1/4" Jack channel switching you can plug the ES5 into your amplifier to control that as well as being able to control a bunch of external rackmount MIDI gear as well.

So easy to use and I'm not tap dancing anymore every time I want to switch effect sounds.

Don’t know about durability yet, as it’s brand new - but it seems strongly built. Particularly the foot switches, which seem reassuringly sturdy.

Got this so that I could remotely control my MD500 and digitech whammy via MIDI which it does perfectly well. Smaller footprint than I expected. Taking a bit of getting used to in order to understand how to navigate the menus and change the settings but I really appreciate the control and customisation that this switcher offers.

A very compact system capable of quite sophisticated options
