- This is my demo review of the brand new BOSS ME-90. This video is gonna be pretty long and (I hope) complete. First off we will hear the unit in action with a demo song. Then we will describe the unit in details, then we will hear mores sounds also sharing how you can create a preset, showing you how I have built the presets used in the demo song….with some tip and tricks. Finally, I will give you my two cents. I really hope you enjoy the video!!!

Hi everyone, here you can find a deep dive video about the ME 90, with a lot of your questions answered (i.e. vs GX 100, is it gapless? is it true bypass, etc): th-cam.com/video/0PpeoT_cS58/w-d-xo.html
The people at boss that make the ME's and the people at boss that make the katana's should meet and have lunch
the katana also uses the same pedal emulation from the GT series
Or a baby 😊
@@themomentkiller9167 exactly
The ME90 guys would eat the Katana guys.
I bought this to plug into my Katana..
Normally I don't care much about fast playing, but what you did in this demo was beautiful, amazing, and inspiring!
Thank you so much for such an amazing compliment!!! When you like my music...I'm super happy!!!
I agree!
Thank you sooo much!!!
I totally agree.
Those lines were so clean.
This is so much more than a review! The part about setting the tone is amazing because you explain WHY you decided to set it up the way you did and how it serves the song. Thank you Leo!
This message really makes me happy! I was unsure if to live that part in the video....as it was pretty personal and the video was becoming pretty long...but I'm really happy that you finally appreciate it!
Thank you for letting me know!!!!
I totally agree.
So much more than a review indeed! I really love the song! The transition into the shuffle is very interesting and I really like it! Your playing is outstanding and the vide vibrato is killer! Thank you for what you do for the community!
Thank you soooo much for such amazing compliments...I'm really super happy that you like the song and the review!!!
🙏🙏🙏
Thank you for another outstanding review and the time it takes to produce these videos, we all appreciate it greatly.
Wow Jack, thank you so much for such an amazing compliment and I'm really happy that you like the video!!!
I have to say...Leo, your reviews are the best! So comprehensive and informative! Simply the best! And you play so well! Hope I could play like you! Best wishes from Finland!
Wow, thank you soooo much for such an amazing compliment that really push me forward to make more and better! Thank you....from Venice...😀👍🙏
It was very interesting to hear the thoughts that you bring into creating a tone!
Thank you sooo much, I'm really happy that you have appreciated that section of the video!!! I was unsure if to put it insider the video or not...as it was pretty personal...and finally the video was becoming very long...but at the end I thought that it could be interesting for some of us.
Thank you!
I found the ME 80 execellent for live performance because of all the on board dials instead of menu diving. There have always been better sounding pedals for the price, but the dials were the advantage. This does so much more, butit is those on board dials that make it a big win. Thanks for such a great video.
You are welcome and thank you for sharing your findings and your experience!
Yes, this tactile experience is really satisfying after years of many diving...thank you!
Excellent review Leo! I agree with your assessment of the device such as the design issue with the settings as well as the lack of a stereo delay option. At least for me a stereo delay is a must.
For many years I used the ME-70. Recently I used it a few times and remembered why I liked it. It interacts well with a tube amp but eventually the shortcomings you mentioned made me consider other alternatives as they were also present in the ME70.
In the case of the ME70 the biggest issue for the use I had for it was the lack of an effects loop which now the new unit has plus the amp models sound a lot better in the new unit as well.
Hi, thank you for sharing your experience and your findings!
My Dude! You are quite the shredder! I gigged with the ME80 for years, now loving the ME90 even more!
Thank you soooo much!
Thank you also for sharing your experience with the ME series!
Thank you Leo. Really enjoyed your thoughts. I used the ME 80 for years and loved it and now i got the ME 90 to hopefully enjoy for the same amount of years. Love them! Easy to use and a great sound too! :) XXX
You are welcome and I'm happy that you have appreciated the video!
Thank you also for sharing your experience!
I am so happy to have found your channel. Your approach to reviews is exceptionell. Right now I am looking in your playlist to watch another of your Videos, because your share so interesting experiences along the way.
By the way, this was totally convincing to me, at to buy this unit feels right and easy which is rare in today days with so much different options at hand.
Thank you Leo
Thank you sooo much for such amazing compliments that really make me happy!!!!
I hope you will enjoy the other videos!!!
como siempre Excelente Leo!! la música increíble; tu técnica increíble; y el Review honesto y a profundidad. Gracias maestro!
Wow, thank you so much Juan for such amazing compliments that really make me happy!!!!! 🙏🙏🙏
That song was just beautiful. So much emotion. I loved it!
Thank you sooooo much for such an amazing compliment...really super appreciated!!!
I can’t imagine a guitar player interested in gear and not yet subscribed to your channel. I actually don’t need any other channel for gear reviews. Great job man.
Thank you sooooo much for such an amazing compliment!!!
Really excellent review. Seemed really true! This was true quality!Thank you
Thank you soooo much, I'm really happy that you like the video!!! ... and yes...it's true...😀
Hello Mr. Leo Gibson! Your mix has so much punch and kick and your playing is so delightful that I'm impressed all the time form the first note from your guitar to the end of the piece. I appreciate your videos and also your audience. You gather together so much people out there. I like to read comments below your posts. As a TH-camr you are very impressive artist as well. I wish you all the best and have good fun watching incoming chapters of this such interesting tech and gig series. Cheers!
Wow, thank you so much for such amazing compliments that really push me forward to make more and better!!!! Really super appreciated!!!! 🙏🙏🙏
❤great job😮 I'm getting one .nice review😮 very good.just what I'm looking for,.nice features.easy.❤ knobs best.😇😎😇✌️🌎✌️🙄👍👁️💖boss 💲
Excellent review Leo, thanks 🤘🎸
You are welcome Ruben! I'm really happy that you like the video!!!
This video is already so much worth it for the demo song. Reminds me of my youth when I was listening more to progressive Rock and music from Jean Michelle Jarre and Mike Oldfiled. I also like the pragmatic and calm way you present your opinion and views on the device. Thx for the effort.
Thank you so much for such amazing compliments!!! I'm really happy that you like the video and the music....it really means a lot to me!!!
I really like the video. Exceptionally good presenter! Keep up good work!
Thank you so much, I'm really happy that you like the video!!
amazing review and playing, your channel rocks, other guitar players should know of this channel
Thank you soooo much for these amazing compliments that really make me happy!
Hello, thanks for the video! I have been a ME80 user for at least seven years. I recently switched to try mooer and gt100... today I bought a me90, and I'm sure I'll be happy!
Hi, thank you so much for sharing your experience!
Your playing is just beautiful sir. Thank you.
You are welcome and thank you soooo much for such an amazing compliment!!!!!
Amazing introduction, Leo! I'm really impressed. It would be pretty interesting a comparison between Nux Trident and Boss ME90. Thank you!
Thank you soooo much, I'm really happy that you like the intro!!!! Yes, I need time to work on that comparison....
Absolutely fantastic video, thank you!
You are welcome and I'm super happy that you like the video!!!!
Leo is such a dude I just watch the videos for the demoes and the reviews - thanks Leo get that album done pal ;) love your music
Thank you sooooo much, I'm really happy that you like the music!!!
Yes, I would really like to make an album...but it is so time consuming...and I would have to sacrifice the time I spend for YT videos...it's a difficult choice...
@@LeoGibsonGtr but you know it is your destiny right ?
The gods Demand an Album !
;) xx Whatever the case , your TH-cam vids are fantastic as should you do I’d buy an album you made that’s for sure
Somehow yes...😀... For sure I should try to put more effort into an ablum...thank you for your support!!!
Sounds Amazing!
Thank you for sharing!
Subscribed because of this video! Awesome playing bro!
Thank you sooo much, I'm really happy that you like the playing and your sub really means a lot to me!!!
Yes please Leo. Trident vs this. Especially focusing on amp and fx realism.
Thankyou so much😊
You are welcome!!! Yes, it's something I would like to do.....I hope to be able to do it in the coming weeks!
This is the comparison I’d like to see as well
Great playing as always!👏👏👏🤘🤩
Thank you sooooo much!!!
Hi Leo. Thanks for that in deep review, I Just subscribed to your channel, I'm enjoying your exquisite playing and technique, mad respect for you sir.
You are welcome and thank you sooooo much, I'm really happy that you appreciate the playpen and your subscription really means a lot to me!!!!!!
Cool video, nice song Leo !!!
Thank you so much, I'm really happy that you like the song!!!!
Sorry, I grew up Italian and your voice takes me back to my Grandma. Thanks for the wonderful video and playing
You are welcome and I'm really happy that you like the playing and the pronunciation!!!
I remember the led idea was in my old peavey vypyr 15! XD Nice review Leo!
Thank you so much, I'm really happy that you like the video!
I have to check out the Peavy...thank you for your suggestion!
That was some really sweet playing Leo
Thank you soooo much, I'm really happy that you like the playing!!!!
Firstly, terrific playing! You could make a shoebox with twine sound good. Secondly, as far as the ME-90 breakdown, you covered all the crucial elements in a straightforward way.
Good job!
Thank you so much, I'm really happy that you like the playing and the video!!!
Thank you for you feedback: it means a lot to me!!!
Love my me 80, will buy this 90 for sure
Hi, thank you for sharing!
I saw the Boss announcement on their website and immediately checked your channel, and sure enough, 7 hours ago you posted a video about it. I wish they were announcing a software update for GT-1000 instead😂 but this is still good. Also I like the "beard" and t-shirt instead of the usual white button shirt.
Thank you sooo much!!!! Yes, it was so late in the night....I didn't think about the beard and the shirt...I was just fully immersed in the recording process....😀
I've only had a short time with the ME 90. While i haven't gotten satisfying amp tones yet, I LOVE the effects! The mods are so great! The univibe is very 3d. The spring reverb is not good but the hall and rooms are good enough. I wish it had plate and/or more comprehensive reverb control. I love the simplicity and the effects so its definitely a keeper. Hopefully, I'll be able to get good amp tones eventually, but if not, i can always just use the effects.
Hi Dave, thank you so much for sharing your experience!
You have only one problem with those reviews and comparings. You are playing so good, that all units sounds good. :) Keep on doing that.
😀....thank you!!!
Beautiful intro 😊😊 Gave me chills 💯 Good review. Great channel buddy. Take care 😎👍👋👋🎸🎸✌️✌️. I have a Nux MG30. Love it. But I'm going to purchase this one too. Soon 👍💯
Hi Mike, thank you soooo much, I'm really super happy that you like the music and the channel!!! Thank you also for sharing your purchase decisions!
As I remembered, at the older ME series you can hold exit or save button to see the parameter value.
Hold the exit/save and rotate the knob that you want to see (please try and tell me then, I want to know the result too, thanks).
Ciao Leo, I have been following the ME-90's reviews, and I was waiting for yours, of course! I am getting the ME-80 next month, since where I live the 90 will not come yet. When I go to the USA again, I will definitely get it! Like you, I am used to Boss! Sad it doesn't have plate or pingpong. And I am used to the knobs not being where they originally should be, so it is not really a bad thing to me. I used to have the ME-70, so I will follow the ME way... And that while I save for the GT-1000!
I love ur reviews they r so honest and raw!! You convinced me to buy NUX mg 30 ( absolute beast for this price range)
Это точно!
The Nux was the best at this price range until the Boss ME 90 came out.
@@BkBk-gy6vr no drum, no output modes there r many things missing too 😭. Moreover not fan of analog man
Thank you so much, I'm really happy that you appreciate the review....I try to do my best to be as objective as possible ...
I bought the nux but got a lemon.
Cheers, Leo! 🎉
Cheers!!! nice job here with the ME-90 guys 😀
release GX1000 Core ASAP
Great Leo!!!
Thank you soooo much!!!
There are so many people who just don't want, or need, a huge touch-screen LCD on their modelers. No one wants to fiddle around on a touch-screen during live performances! Something like the ME-90 and NUX Trident will probably also survive a lot longer than a Helix or Quad Cortex. Great to see Boss finally getting around to adding the GT-1000 amp models to the ME-series.
The first thing that occurs to me when I see the ME-series is the same thing that Leo Gibson commented on in time 26:42. How would you make the adjustments in the middle of a show if the physical buttons probably weren't representing the state of the presets? I think if you want to avoid fiddle around, the touch-screen for navigation with some physical buttons to control the parameters is still the best solution.
I'll stick with my Helix and FM3 they sound much better.
Hi, thank you for sharing! Of course these units have a specific target market....I have to say that this approach is nice and the more you use it ... the more you enjoy it...
No need to touch the screen during live performance.. just prepare and programme the patches at the studio..and with just one click of the foot switches you get what you want..
On Me 90 all the amps and effects are available with the physical knobs..
@@rockr8840 Yeah, i have never changed any settings in patches at a gig or analog amps and pedals when i used them decades ago, just set up and play.
Beautiful music, Leo. 💯🏆
Thank you so much....when you like my music....I'm super happy!!!
There’s a fourth solution to the knobs. The display could display up/down arrows (like the tuner mode does) to show where to move the knob to get to the saved position of the touched parameter. BassStation 2 synth does that.
Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for the great video Leo! I own the boss me 80, and I appreciate that Boss added an fx loop on the unit, as well as support for 3d party IRs.
It would be nice if you could make a comparison between the me 80 and the me 90, or at least if you could share your thoughts on that, seeing as how the 80 is still one of the best selling units out on the market.
Thanks again Leo, your videos are awesome!! Cheers!
Thank you sooo much, I'm really happy that you like the video!
Yes, a comparison with the ME 80 would be interesting...I don't have it....therefore I could do a video just showing the differences in terms of tech spec.
Thank you!
It's supposed to be the same effects as the gt1000 and if it is I can speak to that. I used to own both a GT1000 and ME-80 and I compared them.
The GT1000 is far superior in effects quality. Everything just has more depth and more dynamic response. Also When everything is bipassed, the gt1000 is much more transparent. The Me-80 cuts some high end and dynamics. I know the ME-90 does not have the same A/D and D/A converters as the GT1000 but I have to assume they are upgraded from the ME-80.
I had done blind tests with the Gt1000 on a switcher against a Klon, Tube screamer, and blues driver and it was indistinguishable. The blues driver especially was just perfect with all the subtleties of the dynamic response. Whereas with the ME-80, I felt like the effects usually got into the sonic ballpark but didn't feel quite as good. The ME-80 seems incapable especially of replicating the high-end frequencies. Everything lacked that sparkle.
Also compared the tape delay to the strymon el Calistan and the reverbs to the strymon flint. I think the gt1000 reverbs are better. And I could match the el capistan completely so that I couldn’t tell it apart. But the reverb and delay are much more limited on the Boss ME-80 and ME-90 so I doubt they would quite be able to stand up to the strymon. Although, on the other hand, there is supposedly quite a bit you can tweak with the computer software on the ME-90, which may make a difference. The ME-80 had every single parameter available on the unit. So the software didn't actually give you anything additional.
The Me-80 also has a freeze effect that the gt1000 didn’t have whatsoever and cannot replicate. Gt1000 has some sort of “hold” effect that kinda sucks. But I’m glad it looks like they were able to keep a good working freeze on the me-90 and it sounded good in other demos.
I will be buying an ME-90 as soon as I can. BUT, I also could see myself re-buying an ME-80 again as used prices on those will probably be plummeting soon.
Hi, thank you so much for sharing your experience and your findings!!!
@@LeoGibsonGtr Thanks for the feedback Leo, looking forward to seeing your future videos! It might also be interesting to hear your thoughts about the best ways to monitor yourself on stage while using these units... Food for thought :) Cheers from Colombia!
@@TheDilligan Awesome dude, thanks for sharing! Would to have a GT1000, seems like such a good unit... What are your thoughts on using the me80 with an ir loader pedal after? I just think it's still such a versatile pedal I'm looking for ways to keep it in use, specially for fly gigs because of its size... Thanks again dude, cheers!
Awesome! I miss my Me-50.. Since I sold it I have not found an amp or amp modeler that makes me feel at home.. I really liked the DS1 distortion and the Botton knob there, it was a huge compressed distortion I have never found.. I hate to have thousands of amp options and a digital chain in a screen.. Having a digital pedal with no big screen and just knobs in 2023 is a great idea..
Hi, thank you for sharing! Yes, it's nice to have some tactile knobs to play with...nicer that I thought at the beginning...
Thank you!
You just got a sub! This pedal will be my upgrade from gt-100. What an amazing but simple device. Great song!
Thank you so much, I'm really happy that you like the music, and your subscription really means a lot to me!!!
I use the boss ir200 and I can say that their amp modeling is excellent!
Hi, thank you for sharing!
Sempre the best merci a toi ! Motorised knob was too mutch but a led position was possible !
Thank you soooo much!
Thank you for your video 👍
You are more than welcome!!!
Hi Leo..
Watching this again as I'm really thinking about one of these. With a solid state analogue amp believe it or not.. I hate maintenance on a tube amp..
Man, your legatto is amazing brother.. You're just an amazing player sir.. Very cool song and great playing my friend.. Just had to tell you..
Love that guitar too.. It's a jewel sir! The tone does cut..
Thanks brother.. Be well sir and regards from the heartland (South Central Indiana. ) USA
Tim
Thank you so much, I'm really happy that you like the videos and expecially the music and the playing!!!
Really super appreciated!!!
Secondo me è un ottimo compromesso per chi non vuole perdersi in mille menù e icone
Qui ci sono relativamente "pochi" effetti ma tutto ciò che serve (e anche di più) alla stragrande maggioranza dei chitarristi.
Pensavo abbandonassero questo tipo di pedaliere e invece no! Boss mi ha davvero stupito in questo. Inoltre le migliorie rispetto al precedente modello sono interessanti e il prezzo ci sta alla grande. Davvero un prodotto interessante!
Ovviamente recensione eccellente come sempre!
Ciao Raffaele, si concordo con te.
Grazie per il complimento, sono contento che il video ti piaccia!
Nice playing Leo! ty
Thank you soooo much....when you like my music and playing...I'm super happy!
Thank you also for taking the time to live your feedback: it means a lot to me!!
Great video. It is clear you have an incredible understanding of tone and effects. I am very much a novice that would like to learn more about this. I know that experimentation is key method, but my immediate goal is to set up tones and effects similar to song covers. Is there a source I can go to that can link a song to settings on this pedal? For example, how can i match the tones to Santana's Europa, or Oye Como Va?
HI, thank you so much, I'm really happy that you like the video.
Actually, I don't know if there is a specific source. What I would do is to understand the amp and guitar used but the guitarist and then I would try to replicate the setting with the modellers.
Would be great to see a direct comparison between this and the NU-X Leo! Keep up the great work! 🏆
Pienso que estan pensados para hacer cosas diferentes. El Boss está creado para tocar con amplis. A mi forma de ver el NU-X no.
Yes, I also want to do such a video.... I need time...as these comparisons are pretty complex.
Thank you!
@@facundocantero6022I use my mg30 into the return of two amps with 2 x 12s in them. It's Awesome
I have the NUX MG-30. I would prefer the Boss.
@@LeoGibsonGtrIf you’re doing the comparison, I’d love to see how the HX effects does: comparison of the best Pedalboard sims out there ! Thank you for yet another great video, Leo
Leo, your video's are so good sir.. Just wanted to tell you that as I watch the last part of this video.. Thank you again kind sir..
Tim
You are welcome Tim, I'm really happy that you like the videos!!!
@@LeoGibsonGtr Absolutely sir. Thanks.
👍
amazing video as always! we need comparison between boss gx100, nux trident and boss me-90!
Thank you sooo much, I'm really happy that you appreciate the video!!!
Yes, I need time to make all these videos....thank you!
Great playing and info Leo. I'm still loving Tonex but this sounds fantastic!....Must.....Resist! : )
Thank you sooooo much!!!! Yes...the GAS is always around the corner....😀
IKR?!! GAS GAS GAS!!!!!!!! Best Regards and Best Wishes!
😀
Hi Leo, once again you have recorded a beautiful demo song. I really like how you explained recording without reverb and without delay. This could help a lot of people. But I have two big questions. The first is Noise-gate. Is it possible to turn off the noise gate in the ME-90? And the second very important question: Master volume and bypass. When all effects are off. Is the guitar thru or is the master volume still on? Thanks for the answers. Thomas
Thank you sooo much, I'm really happy that you have appreciated the video!
As regards your questions:
> noise gate: yes, you can turn it off when the range is set to 0
> master volume: I think it is still on, but I'm not 100% sure....I'm sorry.
Leo, your comments about adding LED knobs in the future is right on the mark. Without it, tweeking presets is unpredictable (you can use the app but generally not what this unit is about). I remember such LED knobs even on my old Peavy Vipyr amp from decades ago.
Thank you so much!
Actually, thanks to some of your comments, there should be a way to display the value of the knob in the screen....I am experimenting with that option and I will let you know.
Thank you!
@@LeoGibsonGtr Ah you are right, I seem to recall that from playing around with the ME-80. Its not ideal but better than nothing, if indeed its on that little lcd
yes, exactly
Hi Leo, great review! I loved it. I have a question, have you ever tried any of the Fractal Processors like the FM3 or FM9? Thank you.
Thank you sooo much, I'm really happy that you like the video!!!
Yes, I have tried Fractal product in the past...I still have an Axe FX II that I bough around 2012...if I remember it well and I also have the FM 3 that I have reviewed in the channel. In the channel there are also many comparisons...for instance FM3 vs Quad Cortex or FM 3 vs Line 6, etc...
Thank you for your question!
Great playing.
Thank you so much, I'm really happy that you like the playing!!!
Excellent review and excellent demo!!! A question Mr. Gibson, I've had an ME 80 for three years and I like it a lot because it's like having analog pedals in a compact device, however sometimes I don't like distortions very much, you recommend switch to this new model? Is it an important evolution compared to the ME 80 model?
Thank you, I'm really happy that you like the demo!!! Actually I never had the ME 80, therefore I can't tell from direct experience, but the ME 90 is based on AIRD, where the 80 is the old COSM, and for what I have understood is pretty noticeable.
Thank you so much!
Dear Leo, your review is very detailed and your presentation is very professional. I'm learning a lot from your videos. I have a question about the ME90: Is the casing metal or plastic? Considering to update from ME80. Thank you 🙏
Hi, thank you so much, I'm really happy that you found the video useful.
I think the case is plastic with some metal parts especially in the back of the unit. Nevertheless the unit feels very solid.
Thank you!
Excellent review! Just bought one and was looking for something comprehensive. You gave me that. Thanks so much. I now have a good general idea of how this thing works. Cheers!
Thank you so much, I'm really happy to have been of some help!
I used my ME-80 for years to create some pretty nice David Gilmour tones, that sounded pretty authentic live or recorded. I then upgraded to the GX-100 when it launched and struggled to get my head around it so bought the ME-90 recently when it launched. I copied in my my ME-80 presets manually, and they are largely the same with a few tweaks to the amp/effects settings. I had put my guitar down for many weeks because of how I was struggling, but the ME-90 has changed that. I recommend it particularly for small bands as it is versatile, sounds good and can run on batteries - a giggers dream imho. I am not crticising the GX-100 of course, but I have found the concepts of the ME-90 easier to transfer, as I suppose is to be expected. Both great units and both very much worth considering, and I think BOSS have made a masterstroke with this new unit.
I simply adore your Paoletti too, and am very jealous. They are beautiful instruments.
Hi, thank you sooo much for sharing your experience and your findings!!!
Yes, the Paoletti is super.... 😀
Hi Leo ! Little offtop, but are you going to make a test of the new Liquid Profiling of Kemper and how it compares to the competitors ? ( NAM, Tonex ).
Really looking forward to see such a video, because your comparsion are the most valuable ones at least for me haha.
Cheers !
Hi Micha...good point...that's another video I would like to do... I'm struggling to keep on with all these news.... I have some reviews to finish and some comparison many are asking for....but I have to find the time also to test the new Kemper liquid....
Thank you soooo much, and I'm really happy that you found the videos valuable!!!!
Killer song and playing my friend
Thank you sooo much Martin, I'm super happy that you like the song and the playing!!!
Sounds great. I love the ME80 and have used mine since it first came out. I'm a gigging musician and have recently thought about buying another as a back up & I've only just discovered the ME90. My first question 'have they improved the reverb? Any more settings beyond the 3 just on a knob on the 80?.' I was hoping for an RV-6 to be put on there, though maybe that's expecting a bit much :). It's very frustrating that they haven't added to the ME 80 and have the reverb more adjustable though, and especially not including a plate setting. Great review anyway, cheers!
Hi, thank you for sharing!
I don't have the ME 80, but I think the reverbs are pretty similar between the two machines.
Knobs with segmented E-paper displays would be great. That's very cheap. Thank you for the excellent review and playing, as usual!
You are welcome! Yes, this could be a really nice idea...thank you!
Oh greetings Leo I really appreciate your review and demo for this particular Bosch product. Although I am stuck with the idea of wanting to trade my head rush MX five in for this unit just because it’s much easier for me to see and operate the parameters on this unit. Quick question now I have the katana marked to 100. Would this be overkill or are these units very close to being the same.?
Hi, thank you, I'm really happy that you like the video! I think that if you like the Katana tone, you should like the ME 90. And the two units complements well each other. Of course the MX 5 would be a plus at this point.
Thank you!
Great video Leo, thanks.
Regarding the knob positions being unknown, that's a good point, on the ME25 there is a function where by the parameter value can be shown on the display, prior to making any adjustments, maybe that feature is available somewhere on the 90?
Good point...I have to check out! it would be a great and elegant solution!
But it won't save you from discrepancy between what you have in patch before editing, and what knob shows. Display can only show one thing. It is a native design shortcoming here.
@@borisv8766 you can actually turn the knobs on the ME25 without altering the settings in the mode to check parameters
Thank you Leo! What is that Green relic guitar, looks amazing and the tone is sweet?
You are welcome! it is a Poletti...yes, it's amazing and sounds great. Here you can check out my review: th-cam.com/video/O-gHwsTc0OE/w-d-xo.html
Thank you!
SIMPLY AND PLAINLY... YOU RE THE BEST. THANNKSSSS A LOTTTTT
Thank you so much for such an amazing compliment!!!!
Leo.. I really, really, liked how you demonstrated the way you got the tone you wanted with this device. I think you should incorporate this with other demos sir.. Maybe as a suggestion you would or could do this with the other products or as seperate videos just showing us how you get your tones.. It's very good.. Just a suggestion sir..
Thank you for your suggestion! Yes, it's a good idea...even if the risk is to become repetitive, as the tendency I have is to try to get the tone I like...that could be similar from devicee to device...
Thank you!
Awesome!
Is there a way to connect an aux input to it to play songs or a metronome?
Hi Leo, great video and review. I know you'll compare ME-90 with the NUX trident, but could you please tell us your quick view about these two? thank you
Well, the more I use them the more I like them...but please be patient...I would like not to jump to conclusion until some analysis... thank you for your patience...
Killer playing man! And an outstanding tone!
Thank you soooo much, I'm really happy that you like the playing and the tone!!
Thanks Leo!!
Can you please tell me, which amp you used and which amp you recommend for using the ME90?
Thank you so much!!
You are welcome!
In the "more sound section" of this video I have explained the amps used and how I have set them up.
Thank you!
Wow Leo.. What a great song.. I love that Strat style guitar.. Not the Suhr, but the other one.. I love the Suhr too, but that Green strat is killer and sounds great.. Your legato playing is epic sir.. You're just really good my friend. Great song.. You write really well, play outstanding and record well.. Is there anything you can't do with guitar..? 🤣

Thank you soooo much for such amazing compliments that really make me happy!
Greeting from Italy....and currently from Ponza....(I'm on holidays...😀)
Ciao Leo, come sempre recensione accuratissima, grazie. Sono indeciso tra boss me 90, nux trident e valeton GP 200.. per suoni Clean e Crunch Qual è la migliore secondo te?
Grazie!
Grazie, sono contento che il video ti piaccia!
Cerco di non dare mai suggerimenti "black or white", perchè di fatto l'unità migliore è quella che soddisfa meglio le tue esigenze, che sono poi diverse dalle mie, etc. Direi che dipende....
Comunque spero di riuscire a fare un video comparativo tra Trident e MR 90 nelle prox settimane.
Grazie!
Hello Leo, did you get a chance to play with the ToneStudio software ? Apparently you can modify or change the amps and effects in the software...thank you for the content..👍
Hi, yes, ToneStudio works nicely also with he ME 90..:I've used it few times and it works pretty well.
Thank you so much!!!
Hey Leo, nice demo btw. How do you comapre ME90 with the GX-100 when it comes to the tone? Is it the same? Thanks.
Hi, yes, I think it's basically the same. I have to do more detailed test...but to my ears they sound the same.
Thank you!
I hope those footswitches are built to last. Past units with similar looking switches were prone to failure. Other than that, I think it's smart to keep a no-screen, all-knob unit in Boss' line-up. A lot of us like turning knobs more than scrolling through menus. Nice Paoletti guitar, by the way.
It's er, Boss 👍
Thank you for sharing your findings! I think it's the same foot switch design used for the ME 80. I'm not sure if for the ME 80 there were failures...but it could be used as a reference.
Yes, I do agree...the Paoletti is a fantastic guitar!
I have had the ME-80 for about 8 years and it is built like a tank. The pedals will last 100 years. In every way, these BOSS MFX pedals are built for life.
@@rogermacintyre8741 That's very reassuring. I have a few older Boss multi-fx that are bricks now, though my GT-8 never let me down.
@@rogermacintyre8741 ME25 has been part of my gig set up for 13yrs, hundreds of gigs and rehearsals, no issues 👍
Excellent work as always. It doesn't look to be possible but double checking... Is it possible to send 1 output to PA with cab sim ON and another with cab sim OFF to the input of a guitar amp?
Read the manual and it doesn't look like it.
I have an old Boss GT-6, which was a different design, but achieved many of the same sounds, effects, and functionality of the ME-80. I enjoyed the unit until the multi-selector Pots started randomly changing settings. I hope Boss is using better designed/more duable Pots on the ME-90.
Hi, thank you for sharing! Unfortunately I never had the GT 6, therefore I can't check out if the pots are different...
Great music here guys !!!!!
Thank you soooo much, when you like my music....I'm super happy!!!
man your demoes are fuckin mint x class mate
Thank you soooo much, I'm really super happy that you appreciate my videos!!!!! 🙏🙏🙏
Hi Leo, thanks for the review 👍Is the expression pedal made of metal or plastic; what about the bottom of the unit - is it all metal or a combination of metal/plastic? Cheers 🙏
Hi, I'm not quite sure....the chassis seems to be metal, with added plastic on the back of the unit. The expression pedal seems more plastic...
my opinion is a cropped version of the gt-1000, but the effects with effects control are brought to the panel for the convenience of working on stage, the sound is the same, but the possibilities are slightly less than in the gt-1000
Hi, thank you for sharing!
Devo ancora vedere tutto il video (a proposito venendo da Ampero One vale la pena passare a GX-100?), devo farti i miei complimenti per la tua collezione di strumenti... eccezionale.
😀...grazie, sono contento ti piaccia la collezione! ... Come sempre dipende...sono due unità in fasce di prezzo differenti, con differenti opzioni (tipo il numero di footswitches, etc.) quindi credo dipenda da quello che ti serve veramente.
I love the ME line isn’t being abandoned because the concept to me was always really great. Having individual sections and just a lot of knobs to manipulate the board is just awesome and the freeze feature coming back is a big selling point for me. I had the ME-25 a long while ago and that had the freeze function as an option for the expression pedal but, the ME-70 which my buddy got didn’t have it. I never got an me-80 because I was no longer as interested in all-in-one units during that time but, this pedal is calling me back!
Hi Josè, thank you so much for sharing your experience and your findings!!!
That battery option is great. I can confirm that this unit also works with an external usb powerbank and special centre negative barrel to usb cable. I hate to use adapters in wall sockets...why? Noise. That was probably the reason Brian May recorded his guitar work on all Queen albums with a small battery powered amp. 😜
Yes, that battery option is very handy! Thank you for sharing!
beautiful review, i love italians!
Thank you so much!!! Grazie mille!!!!
