Manufacturer's ID: ES-8
What we say:
The BOSS ES concept is to completely change how you use your favourite stomp boxes. Instead of tap-dancing to turn on and off multiple pedals in a tight timeframe during a song, you can simply hit a footswitch on the ES-8 and it’ll automatically switch in and out your desired combination based on 8 loops pre-programmable by you to suit your needs. With 200 patch memories (which can all remember individual delay times) at your feet, you can have unprecedented flexibility with your stomp boxes.
Built to the same road-proof levels of strength and solidness as BOSS’s compact pedals, the ES-8 contains high quality switches and individual buffers for each that can be selected (with variable levels) for even more flexibility. The circuitry is designed specially to prevent any loss to your tone too and there’s also a large display screen with plenty of space for lots of info that can be seen clearly from a darkened stage. This innovative invention really helps to make sense of your pedals and streamline your performance to be more efficient and fun.
Specification
Not just another utility tool, the ES-8 kicks down the door to unlimited possibilities in the universe of musical expression. From this day on, the use of stomp boxes will never be the same.
