Equipped with high-quality sound, abundant variations and abundant parameters. A high-end modulation pedal that is easy to use.
The MODULATION MD-500 is a high-end modulation pedal that achieves overwhelming high-quality sound by processing from input to output at 32bit / 96kHz.
A total of 12 modes and 28 types of wide range of sound variations are on standby.
Since it is based on the basic design of the DD-500 Digital Delay, which has been well-received for its intuitive interface and expressive real-time control, precise programming is possible with simple operations.

1. 1. High-end modulation pedal that achieves overwhelmingly high sound quality by processing from input to output at 32bit / 96kHz. Equipped with a total of 12 modes, including modeling of the BOSS CE-1 scanner and vibrato, which are loved by players around the world. CHORUS, FLANGER, PHASER, VIBRATO, and TREMOLO are equipped with a newly developed "PRIME" type that overcomes the weaknesses of conventional effects. Equipped with a large LCD with high visibility, intuitive operability with a dedicated knob, and a CTL / TAP switch that allows flexible settings. In Simul Mode, two patches can be used at the same time. Equipped with an insert loop function that allows you to create sounds in combination with an external effector. Supports MIDI control 8. Dedicated editor software support

Modulation pedal that stimulates creativity and expands the range of sound creation infinitely
The MD-500, which is a condensed version of BOSS's cutting-edge technology, contains a total of 28 types of modulation effects that are often used by guitarists and bassists. Each effect is equipped with a number of parameters that maximize the features of each effect, stimulate the user's creativity, and expand the range of sound creation infinitely. In addition, it is the highest peak modulation pedal that consistently realizes ultra-high sound quality of 32-bit floating point arithmetic / 96kHz processing from input to output. In addition to the PRIME type developed with the latest BOSS original technology, there are also historic masterpieces such as CE-1 Chorus Ensemble, Roland Dimension D, vintage phaser of the 70's, and three-phase chorus that prevailed in the 80's. It is equipped with many. Also, in A / B Simul mode, you can use two patches at the same time, so you can achieve overwhelming sound variations with just the MD-500. In addition, if you use the insert loop function, you can connect an external effects pedal before, after, or between the modulation effects of the MD-500 to play presets and highly crafted sounds for each patch. You can easily call it inside.

Prime Tone
The MD-500 is equipped with the PRIME algorithm, which is a reborn version of common effects such as CHORUS, FLANGER, and PHASER using BOSS's proprietary technology. Compared to standard effects, a new effect type with a wider range, transparency, and higher expressiveness has been realized by ultra-high-speed / high-performance DSP and state-of-the-art technology. In addition, some effects such as PRIME CHORUS are equipped with unprecedented parameters such as BELL and SWEETNESS, and can be combined with other detailed parameters to create unprecedented sound.

User interface that realizes high visibility and intuitive operation High visibility and operability are indispensable elements on the stage where mistakes are not tolerated. The MD-500 is equipped with a large graphic LCD, so you can grasp patch names, effects used, and other status information at a glance. The large LCD is also useful for editing detailed tone parameters and control settings. Four knobs are laid out on the top panel for instant access to basic parameters such as effect depth and effect level. Furthermore, if you use a dedicated editor via USB, you can perform a smooth setup while grasping the overall parameters on your PC.

Full real-time control function
The MD-500 is equipped with a full range of assign functions and external control terminals, enabling real-time parameter control that further enhances the expressiveness of your performance. Up to two external foot switches can be connected to the CTL1,2 / EXP terminals on the rear panel, or an expression pedal can be connected for more direct operation and real-time control of WAH and other effects. By default, three footswitches are assigned to patches A, B, and TAP / CTL, and you can intuitively operate real-time controls such as on / off of each patch, patch / bank selection, and tap tempo. Depending on the settings, it can be customized according to usage, such as A / B Simul mode, patches A and B, and a mode in which a third patch C can be selected. In addition, by equipping the MIDI input / output terminal, patch switching and parameter values ​​can be controlled from an external MIDI device.
