【Voltage Compatibility】
When using electrical appliances, please note that they are designed for Japanese voltage specifications (90-110V), so if you use them with a different voltage, it may cause a malfunction.
【Plug Type】
Our products use Japanese plug types (A or B type).
Please use a conversion adapter if necessary.
【Important Note on Transformers and Adapters】
A transformer adjusts voltage to match your device’s requirements.
A conversion adapter only changes the plug shape and does not adjust voltage.
Using only a conversion adapter without a transformer may result in damage to the product.
【Liability】
We are not responsible for malfunctions or damages caused by improper use, such as operating the product without a transformer.

A modulation pedal that stimulates creativity and infinitely expands the possibilities of sound creation.
The BOSS MD-500, a condensed version of BOSS's cutting-edge technology, features a total of 28 built-in modulation effects frequently used by guitarists and bassists. Each effect is equipped with numerous parameters that maximize its unique characteristics, stimulating the user's creativity and infinitely expanding the range of sound creation. Furthermore, it is a top-of-the-line modulation pedal that achieves ultra-high sound quality with consistent 32-bit floating-point arithmetic/96kHz processing from input to output. In addition to the PRIME type developed with cutting-edge BOSS proprietary technology, it also includes many historically significant effects such as the CE-1 Chorus Ensemble, Roland Dimension D, 70s vintage phaser, and the 80s three-phase chorus that took the world by storm. Moreover, the A/B Simul mode allows you to use two patches simultaneously, enabling an overwhelming variety of sounds with just the MD-500. Furthermore, using the insert loop function, external effect pedals can be connected before, after, or between the MD-500's modulation effects according to your needs, allowing you to preset each patch and perform with highly crafted sounds.
