It features a varied palette of 33 effects, including new distortion effects such as Clean, Scream, Wild, and Shred, as well as new modulation effects like Cry, Tremolo, Ring Modulation, and Slow. The unit allows for up to nine effects, including ZNR and amp simulator, to be combined in a patch, with memory for 36 rewritable patches.
The user interface has been redesigned for intuitive operation, featuring large switches and keys, and a rotary selector for swift and hassle-free effect selection. Additionally, the 505 II is equipped with a built-in auto- chromatic tuner for quick and precise tuning on stage.
The unit can be powered by either an AC adapter or four IEC R6 (size AA) batteries, providing 8 hours of continuous operation with manganese batteries and 28 hours with alkaline batteries. It is also compatible with an optional foot switch (FS01) or expression pedal (FP01/FP02) for added control and flexibility during performances.
The 505 II is a compact and affordable successor to the popular Zoom 505 model, incorporating nine new effects, including distortion effects using sophisticated modeling techniques, practical stage-use, and special effects.
