Features
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 Harmo-
nies
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 devel-
oped “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.
