«  A good alternative to the tone zone »

Published on 03/09/11 at 11:28
Recently mounted to the handle bar on my Vigier Excalibur Original (company evolution of a neck), I could try it with the same settings as the tone zone and we can tell, these microphones are cousins. Note that I speak of the versions F-spaced.

The D-sonic sounds already loaded in less than the low tone area but it has beautiful too. The microphone lead is very good (especially with the strip side handle) and went really well as rhythm. It is sharper than the tone zone which justifies its more modern side.
In fact, it seems a compromise (not bad for that matter) into a tone zone and an emg.

It is also more oriented lead the crunchlab it is more serious. (Lack of presence for my taste)

By now clean, well there is no dream when you reach a level of output as it is hardly possible to have a good clean. In one split, it is much less convincing than the tone zone which is a marvel in Split and is much better in parallel with a split neck pickup and there it is fun with a really precise intermediate position and dug the way you like or agreements and big sound and arpeggios as well.

In summary, a very micro-oriented modern soloist and holds the road well in heavy metal rhythm, but to choose for what it is, if you want a more violent steer you towards an emg, a dimebucker or X2n.
