All singing, all playing

An acoustic guitar preamp, a microphone preamp, integrated effects and even a phrase looper – the Boss VE-8 brings all of this together in one compact unit, offering singing guitarists a complete toolkit that makes additional gear virtually unnecessary. The VE-8 provides two fully independent channels, one for guitar and the other for vocals – the latter supports both dynamic and condenser mics. What's more, each channel is equipped with a versatile effects section tailored to its source, such as vocal harmonisers or guitar-specific processing. To shape the sound further, the VE-8 includes a detailed EQ with low cut, bass, treble and a fully parametric mid band, giving performers full and precise control over their mix.

Two complete channels

In a clear and compact floor unit, the Boss VE-8 combines two fully featured, specialised channels that can be routed separately or together to an acoustic amplifier, a PA system, or (via an AD converter) directly to a computer. The guitar channel features reverb, delay, multiple modulation effects, and an Acoustic Resonance function, as well the essential tools of a tuner and a notch filter. Similarly, the vocal channel includes its own reverb, an enhancer to add clarity to any singer's voice, and a harmony effect that adds one or two choir voices harmonising either with a preset key or the guitar itself. Completing the setup, a three-band EQ and a versatile phrase looper – capable of processing guitar, vocals, or both – ensure that performers have a rich and flexible palette of artistic options at their fingertips.

Minimal effort, maximum sound

The Boss VE-8 is designed primarily for singing guitarists who typically perform solo, or with a small rhythm section; with just one or two active speakers alongside the unit, any musician or group will already have a more or less complete setup, since the VE-8 Acoustic Singer delivers fully processed signals, which ae also available in balanced form. This makes the device equally well suited for larger stages where a front-of-house mixer handles the sound, but its usefulness extends beyond that core application, as the quality of the vocal and guitar effects is so convincing that many may be tempted to use the VE-8 purely as an effects processor – and with its accessible price point, that decision is all the easier.

About Boss

The Boss brand has been an important part of the Japanese Roland Corporation since the mid-1970s and has caused a sensation from its inception, especially with its compact effect pedals but also multi-effect units and other helpful tools for guitarists. The company's single effect pedals in particular are legendary and can be found in almost every guitarist's home. An incredible 15 million have been sold to date. With its Katana series, the manufacturer now also offers excellent amplifiers at a very interesting price point.

Even out in a quiet clearing in the woods

Guitar, microphone and the VE-8 form a powerful combination for any guitarist, with the stage being its natural home – but by no means the only one. Singing musicians can just as easily use it at home to rehearse their performances or simply to lose themselves in its rich sound, and with its headphone output, they won't even need a speaker. The possibilities extend beyond the living room too, since battery operation makes it possible to practise anywhere – even out in a quiet clearing in the woods.

Wat een gemak en een wereldgeluid met de Boss VE-Acoustic Singer
Anoniem 27.11.2016
Ben nieuw in de wereld van effecten en stompboxes maar heb wel een paar goede oren. Met dit apparaat komen die niets tekort: zowel mijn Eastman OM6 gitaar als mijn stem komen prachtig naturel tot hun recht, met net dat beetje pit wat ik graag wil! Als ik de effecten ga gebruiken wordt het echt leuk, elk liedje kan ik net even anders doen.

Het gebruiksgemak is geweldig , wat je doet hoor je meteen en het is niet moeilijk uit te vinden hoe dat moet, zelfs zonder uitgebreid in de manual te duiken.
Klein minpuntje: ben niet heel gek op de meeste harmonies die erop zitten, klinken een beetje synthetisch. Maar de 'high & low' is wel mooi, zeker als je de toonsoort instelt en niet op 'Automatisch'
Verder een geweldig apparaat voor weinig geld, en met een beetje redelijke versterker klinkt helemaal als een klok. Doen!!

De Boss VE-8 Acoustic Singer
Gevoelige snaar. 15.04.2020
Omdat ik als zanger/gitarist altijd alleen optreed is de Boss VE-8 een zeer welkom gezelschap. Het kleurt de klank van de gitaar en de zang op een prachtige manier en oogt succes bij de luisteraars.
Voor mij een goede investering en bracht mij meerdere optredens.

Prima apparaat met veel mogelijk. Voor mij persoonlijk teveel mogelijkheden, waardoor ik net niet precies de sound kreeg die ik zocht.

More Pros than Cons
mazzumusic 04.10.2019
PROS:
1.Several output options for any situation.
2.I've only used it for a few weeks so can't properly judge its durability but it feels fairly solid. I've just had some bad experiences with another multi effects by another very famous brand so I'm happy to have a Boss pedal now. Reliability is important!
3.Very quiet foot switches.
4.Compared to others, you can get a good acoustic guitar sound out of it.
5.Notch filter suppresses unwanted feedback and noises. Somehow when I use the pedal with the power supply in my house I hear a ground loop hum but the notch filter cancel that noise.
6.Lightweight

CONS:
1.This thing works with lots of hidden features so you have to learn the manual to properly use it and access those features. The manual is not very long though so I personally don't mind.
2.This pedal has a good sound but so far I'm not impressed with the effects. They're not bad and they're not super. They're... OK.
3.As a singer, I'd like the vocal part to be more developed and have more tweaking options. I'd like to have more options for the harmonies especially, like gender, response time (for example, the double effect can't be made tighter). There's only certain fixed harmonies you can use and you can't even mix the double effect with another harmony. I mean, you can't get too creative with the vocal effects.
4. You can't trigger both vocal effects and guitar effects together. This could be very useful in a chorus for example where you need a sudden change both in the guitar and vocal sound.

Overall I'm happy with this pedal. If you need something to trigger your creativity or crazy effects and endless tweaking options, look elsewhere. This thing does exactly what is says: it's a tool for live acoustic singers. It's solid, it gives you a good sound and if dosed/tweaked well and not overused, the effects can add the right colour to your performance. For this price I think it's a good product.
