RING MOD This is an effect that crosses the ME-50’s internal oscillator with the guitar source sound to change the sound to a metallic sound devoid of any feeling of pitch. If you turn off the power with the ME-50 still in Tuner mode, the changed reference pitch is not saved. 3. Play a single note on the string to be tuned; play the string open.

Used for instructions intended to alert the user to the risk of death or severe injury should the unit be used improperly. Insert the included batteries as shown in figure, being careful to orient the batteries correctly. fig.0010 Making the Connections The ME-50 is not equipped with any internal amplifier or speakers. To listen to sound with the ME-50, connect it to a guitar amp, stereo headphones, or other such sound equipment. Page 7 Playing Sounds. Page 9 Using the Effects TONE MODIFY fig.0090 TONE MODIFY Indicator ACOUSTIC Changes the electric guitar’s tone to that of an acoustic guitar. Switching Tone Modify On and Off with the Foot Switch This changes the characteristics of the connected guitar. This is an effect that produces a long sustain by evening out the volume level of the input signal. DRIVE knob Adjusts the amount of distortion. Turning the knob to the right (clockwise) creates a stronger distortion and increases the volume. Turning this all the way to the TURBO range increases the effect even more. Adjusts the volume balance between the direct sound and the harmony sound. Adjusts the depth of flanging effect. Adjusts the amount of resonance. Page 14 Using the Effects ROTARY Produces the effect of a rotary speaker. Adding an Effect Synchronized to the Performance Tempo When any effect other than HARMONIST is selected, you can set the tempo so you get an effect that is synchronized to the performance tempo.australiandiamondnetwork.com/ckfinder/userfiles/files/canon-imagerunner-c2880i-user-manual.pdf Page 15 Using the Effects DELAY fig.0170 DELAY Indicator 0-30 ms Delay sound of 0 to 30 ms delay time. 25-125 ms Delay sound of 25 to 125 ms delay time. 100-500 ms Delay sound of 100 to 500 ms delay time. 400-2000 ms Delay sound of 400 to 2000 ms delay time. ANALOG Pedal Indicator This gives a mild analog delay sound. The delay time can be set within the range of 100 ms to 500 ms. SLOW ECHO DELAY Pedal This produces an effect combining a volume-swell sound with delay. Page 16 Using the Effects HOLD Up to 2 seconds of performance content is recorded, then played back repeatedly. You can keep the recorded content playing continuously as backing and produce other special effects. Page 18 Using the Effects NS (Noise Suppressor) REVERB fig.0190 fig.0200 NS Indicator This effect reduces the noise and hum picked up by guitar pickups. Since it suppresses the noise in synchronization with the envelope of the guitar sound (the way in which the guitar sound decays over time), it has very little effect on the guitar sound, and does not harm the natural character of the sound. THRESHOLD knob Adjust this parameter as appropriate for the volume of the noise. Page 19 Using the Effects Pedal You can select one of the following effects with the expression pedal. fig.0210 PEDAL MODE Indicator WAH The effect will function as a pedal wah. RESONANCE This completely original effect offers enhancements on the characteristic resonances produced by analog synth filters. You can make the setting that determines whether the ME50’s expression pedal functions as a volume pedal or as an expression pedal. Page 20 Saving and Loading the Created Tones (Memory Mode) The ME-50 features a “Memory mode” that allows you to store the various settings within the ME-50 itself, and then call up and use the settings. Page 22 Saving and Loading the Created Tones (Memory Mode) Notes When Using Memory Mode If the Patch Does Not Change.http://www.cuadernos.in/wp-content/plugins/formcraft/file-upload/server/content/files/16297bf299fefe---Computer-programming-lab-manual-vtu.pdf Moreover, the sound output is muted in Tuner mode, making it unnecessary for you to turn down your amp volume each time you tune. 3. Play a single note on the string to be tuned; play the string open. You can also return to the previous mode by pressing the number 1and 2 pedals simultaneously. Page 26 Appendices Returning the ME-50 to Its Factory Settings (Factory Reset) You can restore all of the ME-50’s settings (thirty patches and tuner reference pitch) to what they were at the time the unit was shipped from the factory. This is referred to as “Factory Reset.” To perform Factory Reset, carry out the following steps. fig.

For the USA FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE STATEMENT This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. Something went wrong. To provide the musicians with an option to control the desired aspects of their instrument's tone, this multi-effects unit is equipped with the knob and the pedal switches controls.http://www.champcaregivers.com/wp-content/plugins/formcraft/file-upload/server/content/files/16297bf2ee619b---computer-programming-lab-manual-download.pdf I have a list of songs with the settings that need to be changed before each one, then the foot pedals are used to switch instantly while playing. I made a dual footswitch for the Compressor and EQ (you can also buy one), and this adds enormously to the convenience. I use the compressor to give a louder and more sustained clean sound for soloes, and the EQ for an acoustic strum sound, and general brightness and lift. The distortion section has a lot of options - I have only used it so far for thick rhythm sounds, but there are heaps of interesting ones you could try (whether they sound good in a band can only be found it by experience, but they sound great at home). There is so much on this device that I' m nowhere near trying it all seriously - the point is I'm having a lot of fun with it, and finding useful stuff every time I look for it. I haven't tried using the memory banks, because I haven't finished tweaking my song settings, but if you were at that stage they would be great, especially for recalling precise delay settings (these are not easy to reproduce manually, as there are no numeric parameter readouts). Built Robust. The ME-50 is now an old unit but a great affordable effects unit, built with the quality you expect from Boss. You would spend a lot more on individual Boss pedals. Fantastic sounds from this box, wth the ability to store 12 patches. While there are less sound choices than newer Boss units, the sounds are a bit higher quality. Basically this is a bunch of Boss analogue pedals in one box, connected by some digital switching. Cancel Thanks, we'll look into this. All Rights Reserved. User Agreement, Privacy, Cookies and AdChoice Norton Secured - powered by Verisign. The build is solid, looks and feels roadworthy so that is a definite plus. There is an input jack for an external Boss FS-5U switch or 2 when using a Boss PCS-31 cable on the back as well.chingjin.com/userfiles/files/canon-imagerunner-c28801-manual.pdf There are 3 stomp type pedals and one expression pedal on the top of the pedal, which can be controlled by foot. The ME-50 could be powered by Boss PSA-120 power supply (not included) or 6 AA batteries. The test unit arrived with a paper manual (thank you Boss!) and 6AA batteries. The manual is quite straightforward and at about 45 pages covers pretty much everything you need to know about this pedal. Tone Modify changes the characteristics of the connected guitar. It can be bypassed or when engaged work as what I would probably call an eq section and an exciter section.The Sustain knob adjusts the depth of compression. The Level knob adjusts the volume level. The compressor can also be used as a limiter when the Sustain knob is to the left of the 12 o'clock position. This function could also be switched via an optional external footswitch. The Type switch selects the distortion types, 22 types in total: The Drive knob dials in the amount of distortion, the Bottom knob acts as low eq, the Tone knob acts as high eq while the Volume knob adjusts volume. The Type button select the types of modulation effects - from chorus to rotary speaker. The Modulation section is capable of syncing an effect to a given tempo. As the Modulation section, a delay can be synced to tempo as well. The Noise Suppressor (NS) is a single knob with a LED indicator showing when it is activated. Memory Mode allows the user to store and call up presets, 3 presets per bank, there are 10 banks so the user can have 30 presets in total. The user can navigate between memory and manual mode by pressing pedal 2 and 3 together. The ME-50 also comes in with a chromatic tuner which is activated when pressing pedal 1 and 2 together. Engaging the tuner mutes the signal output so this function is quite useful for tuning live. Reference pitch could be easily changed as well in a range between 435 to 445 hz. At the end of the signal chain the ME-50 has a Master volume control which controls the overall volume going out of the unit. What I can say is that most of the all-in-one effects pedals that I've tried don't sound as organic as this box. What I also really liked about this unit is the fact that it can be powered by batteries, so it can be taken to places where there's no electricity. I wish I had one of these on my camping trips when I was a kid! I feel that the distortion section has quite a lot of variety which will usually keep most musicians happy for a long time. Most of the time I found myself gravitating towards the OD-2, Scream and Guv distortion settings. Having recently tested the ProCo Rat I also found that Boss did quite a good job on emulating it. On the other hand, I found the MT-2, a staple of Boss' pedal division, to sound uninspired when compared to the original - this one sounded a bit overcooked and didn't have the amount of control in the eq section that usually help me to zero in on the offending frequencies. The Bottom control acts as a Bass eq, while the Tone eq's the high end. This made up somewhat for the lack of dedicated eq control to the whole unit, but can be used only when this effects section is active. I didn't really have to touch the manual for any of it, which again is a very high mark from me.Not a deal breaker as I usually don't but a little extra flexibility could've been useful for some players looking to achieve some extra weirdness. I found myself using mostly the Analog delay setting which had a very nice warmth to it. This unit also has some really nice stereo delay settings - especially the PAN and SPACE PAN settings which have some great psychedelic sounds. I felt that there was definitely not enough control to either one of them and I preferred to keep them off for most of the patches unless really necessary. The NS (noise gate) usually didn't clamp down fast enough or as aggressively as needed on some metal patches and just left some nasty noise artifacts trailing after the sound. The Compressor also felt as it was either on or off, there were no subtle settings. There are 4 settings on one dial - Room, Hall, Spring and Mod. The spring reverb was wobbly and non-musical, the rest were adequate but didn't feel very responsive. The acoustic simulator was also quite decent and in a bind I wouldn't mind using it live instead of switching guitars.The ME-50 also had some lag in switching which produced a few miliseconds of no sound before switching the tones in memory mode (check mp3s a sound file of this). I've heard this lag on some other brands of multifx units so you'd have to decide for yourself if this is is a deal breaker. It is also worth noting that this unit does not have midi capabilities, which at this price range is not a huge issue, but it would've been a nice touch. The foot controller can also be used live as Volume control and when pressed hard the selected expression patch, say wah is activated. I found that quite useful live as you can turn it on and off as desired and still have the volume control available at my feet.

( January 2018 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) In a typical instance, the artist sends the mark an email pretending to be from a company, such as eBay. The website is fake but designed to look exactly like the business' website. The site contains a form asking for personal information such as credit card numbers, which the mark feels compelled to give or lose all access to the service. When the mark submits the form (without double-checking the website address ), the information is sent to the swindler. A fraudster can make calls through an Internet- PSTN gateway to impersonate banks, police, schools or other trusted entities. A random dialer computer or auto-dialer can impersonate healthcare providers to get Social Security numbers and birthdates from elderly patients recently released from the hospital.Some victims of the technical support scam may have their information sold or traded to a new organization that will cold-call them and tell them that they are entitled to a refund for the support they have previously paid for. Alternatively, the scammer may impersonate a security company and convince the victim that hackers are manipulating their bank account. The goal is for the scammer to transfer money between the user's accounts and to use HTML editing in the browser to make it appear as though new money has been transferred into the account by a legitimate company.Often claiming some kind of divine guidance, using religious slogans, or claiming to be raising funds for a religious or other worthy cause, church scammers invite their new “friends” to invest in what turns out to be nothing more than a Ponzi Scheme paying for their personal lifestyle. This is such a common crime that the state of Arizona listed affinity scams of this type as its number one scam for 2009.A small group of 'students' will start a conversation, citing a wish to practice their English.
