A complete history of gig-ready BOSS tone processing is at your command, from multiple overdrives and distortions to wahs, mod effects, pitch shifters, delays, and beyond. BOSS’ groundbreaking Multi Dimensional Processing (MDP) technology is represented with the unique, spacious ambience of Tera Echo and the distinctive tone-shaping possibilities of Overtone. Updated COSM preamps include new additions such as Crunch and Metal, plus an AC preamp designed for acoustic/electric guitar. The onboard expression pedal can be used for foot volume and pedal effects like wah, octave shift, and Freeze, and it’s also possible to control effects parameters such as mod rate, delay oscillation, and more for expressive real-time sound shaping. INSTANT GRATIFICATION WITH DEDICATED KNOBS Unlike typical menu-driven multi-effects processors that are complicated and unintuitive, using the ME-80 is as easy as using a stompbox. Effects are organized into eight logical categories that can all be active at the same time. Seven categories contain multiple effects types to choose from, plus dedicated knobs for selecting a type and adjusting it with a set of parameters you’d find in the pedal version of the effect. The Pedal FX category has its own knob for quickly assigning a particular effects type or function to be controlled by foot with the expression pedal. With this familiar and friendly interface, you’re able to dial up and play great tones instantly, just like using a large pedalboard filled with your favorite stomps. A major advantage over that pedalboard is that you can to save all the current knob settings to one of the ME-80’s 36 user patch locations, allowing you to recall custom effects configurations at the touch of a pedal. STOMPBOX IMMEDIACY OR MULTI-FX POWER . . . YOU DECIDE! The hands-on experience that stompbox control provides is perfect for tweaking tones as you go. However, there are times when switching among an entire group of preset effects is more efficient, such as when you’ve set up complex tones for different songs. The flexible ME-80 supports either approach, giving you the best of worlds. In Manual mode, the categories function like individual stomp effects, with instant adjustment via the panel knobs and on/off control with dedicated footswitches. By entering Memory mode, seven footswitches are automatically reconfigured to select user or preset patches and patch banks, letting you recall complete multi-effects setups directly. One footswitch on the ME-80 is dedicated just for mode switching, so you can toggle between Manual and Memory modes any time you want, even in the middle of a song. NEW FOOTSWITCH DESIGN DELIVERS TWICE THE CONTROL The ME-80 offers easy usability while performing, with eight multifunction footswitches for direct control of effects on/off, bank/patch selection, and mode switching, plus convenient access to alternate functions such as tap tempo, tuner, looper control, and more. A special control (CTL) function is also assignable in each patch, letting you toggle grouped effects on/off or adjust a specified parameter in real time. The newly developed footswitch style provides two switches in the space occupied by one in previous designs, allowing BOSS to equip the ME-80 with a generous array of foot-operated controls while keeping the unit extremely compact and mobile. In addition to the eight main footswitches, the expression pedal is equipped with an integrated toe switch that toggles between foot volume and the current Pedal FX setting. USB AUDIO/MIDI INTERFACE BUILT-IN Via USB, you can connect to your computer and capture the output of the ME-80 directly into your favorite DAW to record pro tones with COSM preamps and effects. It’s also possible to monitor the ME-80’s effects sound while recording an unprocessed signal into a DAW track.

At the center of the CVP805 is a gorgeous TFT Color Touch Screen that is simple to navigate and makes operating a wide selection of functions quick and easy. The Music Finder Database on the previous generation has been replaced with the more versatile and powerful Playlist feature, which allows song titles to be stored with attached registrations, song files and setups for instant recall. The dream of learning or playing along with favorite songs is one held by many aspiring musicians, and the CVP-805 makes this dream a reality. This new digital piano takes full advantage of the Audio-to-Score function found in the Yamaha Smart Pianist App for iOS and Android. The app analyses iTunes music files that already reside on an iPad or Android tablet, then generates a piano accompaniment and a chart of chord symbols for those songs, which is displayed on the device placed in front of the user. Like magic, the user is sitting in with their favorite band and playing inspiring accompaniment, from the very first moment they touch the keys. The CVP-805 has also inherited the powerful sound engine found in the flagship Yamaha Arranger Workstation, Genos, bringing Articulation Element Modeling (AEM) technology to specific acoustic instrument Voices. This technology powers the Super Articulation 2 Voices, the most realistic, expressive-sounding instrument Voices available. Clavinova CVP digital pianos have earned an enviable reputation for their superb instrument Voices, all of which have been tuned to perfection on the new models. The CVP-805 features 50 new Voices (1,844 total). When it comes to touch, the CVP805 Clavinova digital piano should impress the most discerning pianist, thanks to the new GrandTouch keyboard action with escapement. Immensely popular on the company’s CLP Clavinova models, the GrandTouch keyboard features real wooden keys and reproduces the true key resistance of an acoustic grand piano with even greater fidelity. For example, the instrument responds with a controlled nuanced sound when the keyboard is played softly, while a stronger touch will elicit powerful brighter tones, just like a grand piano. The result is an instrument with a more responsive touch, offering a greater dynamic range than ever before. To elevate the enjoyment factor even more, players can wirelessly connect an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch to easily share the music they make with friends. While the CVP805 is immensely popular with the piano hobbyist looking to play their favorite music in the home, this superb digital piano is also ideally suited for school music labs as well as in contemporary houses of worship for worship leading.
