Everything you need is here, from overdrives and distortions to pitch/mod effects, delays, and high-quality reverbs.

Along with its effects, the ME-90 includes amp models ported from the GT-1000 — driven by Boss' advanced AIRD technology for authentic tube tone and touch response. 11 onboard amp types offer everything from clean combo sounds to punishing high-gain stacks, and you can access more selections in Boss Tone Studio.
