Modern players carefully curate their pedalboards, and every slot must earn its place. Offering a large selection of classic BOSS effects in a space-saving package, there’s no better utility pedal than the EX-4. It’s ideal for musicians who love to experiment with effects, and an essential toolbox for anyone who needs to cover many songs/styles or build professional sounds on the fly.

A Library of Premium BOSS Effects

Every major category is available among the 120 effect selections in the EX-4, including overdrive and distortion, modulation, delay, and reverb, as well as bass-tuned effects and unique BOSS favorites like Slow Gear and Slicer. You also get dedicated utility blocks that can be placed anywhere within an effect chain—including foot volume, two noise suppressors, send/return, and divider/mixer—plus a global EQ for overall sound shaping.

Speedy Sound Creation with Gear Suite

The EX-4’s Gear Suite feature makes it quick and easy to call up ready-to-go sounds. Each effect type comes with multiple pre-made Gear Suite settings with professionally tuned parameters, all available with the turn of a knob. It’s also possible to edit effect parameters and save favorites in user locations for instant access to personalized setups.

Fluid Interface with Dedicated FX Buttons

A full color 2.4-inch display provides clear viewing of the full effect signal chain, individual effect blocks, editing options, menus, and more. Quickly turn effect blocks on/off with a single press and access editing parameters with a long press. FX button colors match each effect's display colors for fast identification.

Dual Footswitches with Split LEDs

Rugged dual-function footswitches can be custom-configured system-wide or per memory, with assignments that include effect block on/off, memory up/down, master bypass, tap tempo, and more. A newly designed color LED system surrounds the footswitches, allowing you to clearly identify current footswitch functions while performing. 

Comprehensive Connectivity

Four audio jacks provide mono or stereo connectivity, with the option to use two jacks as an effect loop to place external pedals anywhere within the EX-4's effect chain. Two footswitches or an expression pedal can be connected for more real-time control, while space-saving TRS MIDI I/O unlocks deep integration with other MIDI pedals, switching systems, and external clocking devices.
