Main features
Simple Operation—Works Like a
Compact Effects Processor
Each effect is controlled with a dedicated knob. Intuitive operation, similar to that of compact effects processors, lets you make changes to tones directly.
Multi-Function Expression Pedal
The ME-50 is equipped with an expression pedal that gives you control over six different specialized pedal effects. It can also be switched for use as a volume pedal.
Powerful COSM Drive Sound
Roland’s original “COSM” modeling technology lets you perform with a wide variety of powerful distortion effects, from classic vintage sounds, to original distortion sounds.
COSM (Composite Object Sound Modeling)
Composite Object Sound Modeling (COSM) is Roland’s innovative and powerful sound modeling technology. COSM analyzes the many factors that make up the original sound, such as the electrical and physical characteristics of the original, and then produces a digital model that can reproduce the same sound.
Memory Function
You can store up to 30 original tones you have created. You can also use the pedals in “Memory mode” to call up stored tones instantly.
AUX IN Jack
The AUX IN jack makes it easy to practice along with CDs, MDs, and other input.
Battery-Powered Operation
The ME-50 can be powered in two ways, with (6) AA batteries or by using the AC adaptor (optional).

different polarity, or be designed for a different voltage, so their use could result in damage, malfunction, or electric shock.
..........................................................................................................
•Do not excessively twist or bend the power cord, nor place heavy objects on it. Doing so can damage the cord, producing severed elements and
short circuits. Damaged cords are fire and shock hazards!
..........................................................................................................
•This unit, either alone or in combination with an amplifier and headphones or speakers, may be capable of producing sound levels that could cause permanent hearing loss. Do not operate for a long period of time at a high volume level, or at a level that is uncomfortable. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, you should immediately stop using the unit, and consult an
audiologist.
..........................................................................................................

safe operation of the unit.
..........................................................................................................
•Protect the unit from strong impact. (Do not drop it!)
..........................................................................................................
•Do not force the unit’s power-supply cord to share an outlet with an unreasonable number of other devices. Be especially careful when using extension cords—the total power used by all devices you have connected to the extension cord’s outlet must never exceed the power rating (watts/amperes) for the extension cord. Excessive loads can cause the insulation on the cord to heat
up and eventually melt through.
..........................................................................................................
•Before using the unit in a foreign country, consult with your retailer, the nearest Roland Service Center, or an authorized Roland distributor, as
listed on the “Information” sheet.
..........................................................................................................

IMPORTANT NOTES
291a
In addition to the items listed under “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” on page 2–3, please read and observe the following:
Power Supply: Use of Batteries
301
•Do not use this unit on the same power circuit with any device that will generate line noise (such as an electric
motor or variable lighting system).
302
•The AC adaptor will begin to generate heat after long hours of consecutive use. This is normal, and is not a
cause for concern.
303a
•The use of an AC adaptor is recommended as the unit’s power consumption is relatively high. Should you prefer
to use batteries, please use the alkaline type.
304a
•When installing or replacing batteries, always turn off the power on this unit and disconnect any other devices you may have connected. This way, you can prevent
malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other devices.
306b
•Batteries are supplied with the unit. The life of these batteries may be limited, however, since their primary
purpose was to enable testing.
307
•Before connecting this unit to other devices, turn off the power to all units. This will help prevent malfunctions and/or damage to speakers or other devices.
Placement
351
•Using the unit near power amplifiers (or other equipment containing large power transformers) may induce hum. To alleviate the problem, change the orientation of this unit; or move it farther away from the source of inter-
ference.
352a
•This device may interfere with radio and television reception. Do not use this device in the vicinity of such
receivers.
352b
•Noise may be produced if wireless communications devices, such as cell phones, are operated in the vicinity of this unit. Such noise could occur when receiving or initiating a call, or while conversing. Should you experience such problems, you should relocate such wireless devices so they are at a greater distance from this unit, or switch
them off.
354a
•Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, place it near devices that radiate heat, leave it inside an enclosed vehicle, or otherwise subject it to temperature extremes.
Excessive heat can deform or discolor the unit.
355b
•When moved from one location to another where the temperature and/or humidity is very different, water droplets (condensation) may form inside the unit. Damage or malfunction may result if you attempt to use the unit in this condition. Therefore, before using the unit, you must allow it to stand for several hours, until the condensation has completely evaporated.
Maintenance
401a
•For everyday cleaning wipe the unit with a soft, dry cloth or one that has been slightly dampened with water. To remove stubborn dirt, use a cloth impregnated with a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Afterwards, be sure to wipe
the unit thoroughly with a soft, dry cloth.
402
•Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or deformation.
Additional Precautions
551
•Please be aware that the contents of memory can be irretrievably lost as a result of a malfunction, or the improper operation of the unit. To protect yourself against the risk of loosing important data, we recommend that you periodically save a backup copy of important data
you have writed on the paper.
552
•Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore the contents of data that was stored in the unit’s memory once it has been lost. Roland Corporation assumes no liability
concerning such loss of data.
553
•Use a reasonable amount of care when using the unit’s buttons, sliders, or other controls; and when using its jacks
and connectors. Rough handling can lead to malfunctions.
556
•When connecting / disconnecting all cables, grasp the connector itself—never pull on the cable. This way you will avoid causing shorts, or damage to the cable’s
internal elements.
558a
•To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to keep the unit’s volume at reasonable levels. You may prefer to use headphones, so you do not need to be concerned about
those around you (especially when it is late at night).
559a
•When you need to transport the unit, package it in the box (including padding) that it came in, if possible. Otherwise,
you will need to use equivalent packaging materials.
562
•Use a cable from Roland to make the connection. If using some other make of connection cable, please note the following precautions.
•Some connection cables contain resistors. Do not use cables that incorporate resistors for connecting to this unit. The use of such cables can cause the sound level to be extremely low, or impossible to hear. For information on cable specifications, contact the manufac-
turer of the cable.
