MS-3
A unit that integrates an effects switcher and multi-effects into one. Compact pedals connected to three external loops can be combined with six internal effects to build and manage an entire pedalboard. With a generous array of control jacks, amp channel switching, real-time effect control, and centralized MIDI device management can all be handled from the floor.
A pedalboard hub that unites a switcher and multi-effects
An integrated unit that packs BOSS's proven effects engine and a switcher into a compact chassis, making it possible to build an effects system on a small, lightweight pedalboard. It delivers the convenience of a multi-effects unit and the customizability of a switcher in one.
Combining external loops and internal effects
Compact pedals connected to the three external loops can be combined seamlessly with the six internal effects. You can freely design setups that keep your familiar pedals while filling in drive or time-based effects from the internal engine.
Control consolidated at your feet
A generous array of control jacks supports amp channel switching and real-time effect control. It can even centrally manage MIDI devices, so operation of the entire board can be consolidated into the MS-3.
