Zoom MS-80 IR+ Amp Sim and Multi-effects Pedal

A Powerhouse with 23 Amp IRs, Patch Storage, and Effects

The Zoom MS-80 IR+ amp sim and multi-effects pedal is a high-performance unit that’s stuffed with more than meets the eye. Firstly, the MS-80 IR+ holds a dream amp collection of 23 included models that span 16 iconic amps and seven original creations by Zoom. With vintage American cleans, classic British tube power, and modern high-gain options, Zoom’s utilitarian amp inclusions cover the full range of what guitarists need onstage or in the woodshed. Moreover, you can bundle amp sim settings with other effects such as reverb, delay, noise gates, or EQ, as well as save custom patches for rapid recall. Built-in storage for up to 80 patches (recallable via footswitch or MIDI over USB-C) keeps all your favorite tones within effortless reach; you can manage patches and load impulse responses from your own from iOS devices. The MS-80 IR+ supplies dual stereo, USB-C, and MIDI options to help you route, record, and control signal flow. Best of all, the included tools translate easily to fast-paced work. Cross-key footswitches, complete with an onboard tuner mode, help make your workflow smooth, natural, and infinitely more convenient than hauling amp hardware to gigs. Only a handful of standard-sized stompboxes pack the powerful scope and functionality of the Zoom MS-80 IR+ amp sim and multi-effects from City Music. Take the leap — your pedalboard will thank you.

Integrated effects and banks for 80 different patches

The MS-80 IR+ not only provides amp essentials but also a tasteful suite of effects that users can turn into 80 saved patches of performance-ready tones. You can add various reverbs and delays that bring depth to your sound or explore Zoom’s handy utility effects, including EQ and noise gates, that let your MS-80 IR+ patches to any room, stage, or rig. Each patch provides room for one IR and complementary effects. Large cross-switch buttons let you select different presets with ease, and users can manage their created patches and discover additional patches via the Guitar Lab app for iOS. Lastly, a footswitch-activated backlit tuner ensures you have everything you need for a pitch-perfect performance.

Dual stereo and USB-C for recording or MIDI

The MS-80 IR+ offers dual stereo ins and outs, ideal for stereo rigs, wet/dry recording, and beyond! What’s more, an added output splitter lets users control IRs on a per-channel basis. You can drive your signal with an amp sim on one channel but keep another output dry for easy routing to a mixing desk, PA, or recording interface. The MS-80 IR+’s practice utility is equally strong away from the stage with a built-in headphone jack for silent play when volume must be kept to a minimum. In terms of digital connectivity, an onboard USB-C port can interface with DAWs and smart devices. You can even pipe in MIDI commands over USB-C to select and load patches with an external MIDI device.
