High gain distortion (the name is pretty self-explanatory) analogue, the smallest of the series Metal Muff.
true bypass
2 knobs: Gain 1, Volume 1
A switch for three different Equasis
9 volt battery powered (by unscrewing the back plate like any other nano. Not necessarily ideal) or a power supply "standard" type boss.

UTILIZATION

If I had manual I did not even pay attention. Given the limited adjustability is very instinctive, it's not a plant in gauze. So yes very very easy to use.
To have a control over the free EQUASIS must look to its big sisters (micro and top boost)

SOUND QUALITY

For those looking for a big metal disto cheap, go for it!
From the beginning of the gain knob, the tone you get a metal distortion from the beginning to the end of the race. In the beginning, very good for a clean and distortion right, limit it begins to have a distortion of breath and running over a little more without being dirty.
I love the sustain and mounted it provides feedback. It is also its disadvantage: it compresses the sound a lot, so a volume pedal input is not of much use unfortunately. So it is perhaps not fully comply with the sound of a guitar to the next ... But I remember it is 50 euros new

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for just over two years. I could test it on different configs (micro active, passive and different amp) and be somewhat noisy on some amps. On my mesa 5:50 it sounds great.
I had the opportunity to play on the metal zone, metal muff and wins hands down: more heat, it sounds much less synthetic than the boss that I had not loved too.

You can read here and there that she has a life doubtful. So far no problem with me. So for me the value for money is very very good and I do not regret this purchase!
Today I m'embourgeoise and I seriously fishy about the Zvex box of metal. But it is in the same world!
