At Sweetwater, we understand the appeal of a traditional stompbox, and the Polyend MESS provides all the convenience of analog stompbox control with the expansive capability of digital effects libraries. Fully equipped with a 16-step grid pad, the MESS, or multi-effect step sequencer, is a real-time sequencer and editor with hands-on controls that encourage exploration and experimentation. You can build and save up to 1,000 presets, from straightforward instrument effects to experimental polyrhythmic patterns that evolve as you play. Set up any of the more than 120 effects in four independent tracks with the ability to stack and manipulate each to your desired parameters. With the Polyend MESS outfitting your rig with finite control and maximum customization, static presets are a thing of the past.
