BOSS ES-5 Effects Switching System

The Boss ES5 Effects Switching System is based on the same concept and features as the flagship ES-8, but the ES-5 is pared down to offer more practical and essential use options for guitarists and bassists. It is significantly reduced in size to fit ready-made, standard-size pedal boards.

Features:

• Programmable switching system with five loops
• Analog circuit design to protect your pure tone
• Routing flexibility with the ability to change the routing order and create a parallel effect chain
• External control parameters such as delay time can be saved for each patch
• Reliable footswitches with switch-noise mute capability
• Backlit LCD display shows detailed information at a glance
• 200 patch memories
• Customisable pedal function assignments

Do I need the Boss ES8 or ES5? The key differences are:

• No Stereo Loops or output on ES-5
• One input on ES-5 (ES-8 has two switchable inputs)
• 200 presets on ES-5 (800 presets on ES-8)
• ES-5 has fewer CNTL/EXP inputs & sends.
