Boss MD-200 Modulation Effects Pedal

Experience unparalleled modulation versatility with the BOSS MD-200 pedal, delivering advanced sound quality and intuitive controls in a space-saving format. Utilising premium 32-bit AD/DA converters, 32-bit floating-point processing, and a 96 kHz sampling rate, this pedal ensures studio-grade audio fidelity for every effect.

Harness the power of twelve world-class modulation modes borrowed from the flagship MD-500, including classic and modern chorus, phaser, flanger, vibrato, tremolo, auto wah, and more. Each mode features dedicated rate, depth, and level controls alongside three dynamic parameter knobs for effortless real-time tone shaping. An insert loop allows seamless integration of external pedals positioned before or after the modulation effects, perfect for optimising your signal chain with drive pedals or other FX.

Compact Powerhouse with Full Modulation Suite

The MD-200 combines classic and contemporary modulation effects into a single pedal no larger than a traditional stompbox. Featuring authentic recreations such as the CE-1 Chorus Ensemble and vintage ‘70s phaser, it delivers rich, expressive tones for studio or stage. The versatile auto wah doubles as a foot wah when paired with an expression pedal, while the original Slicer and Overtone effects provide distinctive textures and rhythmic patterns.

Effortless Control and Instant Recall

Quickly dial your desired settings using dedicated knobs for rate, depth, and level, and three additional parameters that adapt to each mode’s unique features. Tap tempo sync is easily accessible from the footswitch with visual note subdivision indicators. Save your preferred setups across 127 user memories plus a panel memory for 128 slots total, each instantly recallable from the pedal or via MIDI. Memory scrolling and direct assignment options streamline access for live performance or studio workflow.

Seamless Integration and MIDI Expansion

Use the insert loop to reposition external pedals relative to modulation effects, customizing your signal path with multiple presets. Extensive MIDI implementation on space-saving mini TRS connectors allows chaining of multiple 200 series pedals and synchronised program changes. External footswitches, expression pedals, and multi-function settings broaden your control capabilities for ultimate performance flexibility.
