Today we're having a go at the Boss ES-8 switching system. The ES-8 is the end-all be-all pedalboard switching solution, providing you with a fully-loaded battle station for all your pedals. With up to eight loops on a single ES-8, you can run your entire board into the ES-8 and then rearrange each loop in any way you can imagine. The ES-8's latest firmware update now supports the linking of two ES-8s for up to 16 synchronized loops, the routing of multiple effects loops, as well as a rich editor. The ES-8's Editor gives you visual control over patches, MIDI settings and expression control options, as well as patch management and backup capabilities. By inserting each of your pedals into the ES-8's loops, you're entering them into the ES-8's unparalleled control set. With one or more ES-8s locked and loaded, you can rearrange your pedal order on the fly, as well as assign simultaneous loops to one footswitch, completely eliminating the need for pedalboard tapdancing. The ES-8 also gives you the ability to combine any number of pedals in parallel as opposed to series routing. This feature is essential for dirt maniacs who desire the articulation and note separation of standard dirt boxes that are lost when stacking multiple dirt boxes in series. When you've found a patch you like, you can save it to one of 800 preset slots and name each one to recall them with ease. The ES-8 also offers control jacks for amp footswitches, as well as two expression control jacks, a tuner out, a special volume pedal loop and full MIDI functionality including timed MIDI patch settings, so no level of control is off the table. Throughout all the routing, the signal path is 100 percent analog with switchable buffers to preserve your tone beyond all doubts. And just like all Boss products, the ES-8 is built into a stout enclosure that will survive a lifetime of abuse on stage.
