BOSS MS-3 MULTIEFFECTS SWITCHER
WHEN IT COMES to effects, most guitarists fall into one of two camps: those who prefer the creative flexibility of using various stomp boxes and those who prefer the power and all-in-one simplicity of a multieffects floor unit. Players who want to use pedals and multieffects in the same rig often find that integrating the two is not as easy as it should be, with the compromises outweighing the benefits.
The Boss MS-3 solves that dilemma by combining a powerful loop switcher with a versatile multieffects unit in a compact controller that makes it easy to configure a portable system where pedals and multieffects co-exist perfectly. The MS-3 is as powerful and versatile as many competing loop switching systems that cost considerably more and don’t have the added benefit of built-in effects. It can even control external MIDI equipment and perform amp channel-switching functions.
