The BOSS ES-8 and ES-5 are go-to pedalboard command centers for guitarists everywhere, offering top-quality loop switching, deep MIDI capabilities, and advanced preset control. BOSS 200 series pedals have also become extremely popular, thanks to their great sound, user presets, and low-profile designs. Connecting a 200 series pedal to an ES unit via MIDI opens up a range of external control options from the switcher, including recall of 128 presets and much more.
