mrfrizz « Not bad »
Published on 08/23/11 at 04:28Pedal digital much effect ... It has all been said before.
UTILIZATION
Configuration simple enough, but still above long enough to equalize the volumes between the different presets.
The manual is very clear, detailing the various settings.
SOUND QUALITY
I had this pedal with an old transistor amp. The sound emerged very cold, lifeless, especially the distorted sounds. But in a tube amp, you can feel the pedal really breathe. The clean sounds are very good (although the default presets are a little overloaded with effects), and saturation rather mixed, some more satisfactory, others useless.
The special effects are many and varied, but some are very bad (ring modulator, ...), while others, including the harmonization and the octave, are excellent.
On the drum machine, offering sounds pretty good, about thirty different beats ... it will be the perfect complement to a looper
Sometimes I plug the pedal directly into the sound, making it very well thanks to the integrated speaker simulation. Saturations out less than a tube amp, but it is very useful for troubleshooting or to disseminate only the drum machine. Yet to try it with a microphone for vocals!
OVERALL OPINION
I had this pedal 4 years ago, and have neglected for 2 or 3 years for lack of a sound amplifier to enable it to properly. I rediscovered recently, and I was amazed at the sounds obtained in my new amp!
While the bypass is fairly transparent, it still takes a lot of momentum, so a looper "True Bypass" is essential if you have a tube amp and you're a little picky about the sound.
Otherwise, for the price, great pedal, but with experience, I chose the G2.1u, for the expression pedal (which can still be added later, I made mine, it works very well).
