Does anyone have an old Boss ME-5?
I just dusted mine off and downloaded the manual. Anyone have any tricks they've employed with the unit? Interesting settings?

That was one I didn't get - I held out at the time as it was just too much when new for what it was.
Now if you're talking a ME-6B or ME-10.....

don't have but I do believe I would get along just fine with a tuner -> green ringer -> ME-5 -> dirty amp. I'd just put it in manual mode...
1 probably not used
2 turbo overdrive
3 boost
4 flanger
"B" a short/loud reverb.

I've had mine since it came out and have had it under my bed for years since I moved onto a pedalboard. It was fun for it's time but a little noisy. I came across a few sites that had some tweaks and wanted to see if anyone else used one to share some insights.
