OVERALL OPINION

If you're ready for a long trip to the country you hang frequencies because there is plenty to do.

Take clear sound, while a 0, select the pedal .... Surprise. Warm, alive.
We put the equalizer after his distortion pedal. Mmmm impressive, we re-sculpt the distortion, it is boost, overdrive .... Fiouuuuuuuuuu

We put the equalizer in the loop of his amp randall rg50tc a lamp, for example. Ah yes anyway!! I can now fix any gaps, reshape ... all fantastic.

By the tribal against the case that I find disgusting, I do not, I would have preferred something full black. By against the always cute lil me the bougrichon.Je attedais has something bigger. The LEDs are the most beautiful effect, and practices.

Ben glad my boyfriend!

10-band equalizer.
Gain and volume.
The metallic casing is very solid, and the push button shows no signs of fatigue after a year of probation.
The selector of each band is equipped with LED red is beautiful and very visible.
In addition, the gain and volume will blink when the pedal feels that your setting is too "pushed" practice.

This version of the pedal has a finish reminiscent Tattoo Kerry King and a second output. Choose this if you're a fan of Slayer so, because for the price difference there is nothing more

UTILIZATION

This pedal could not be more simple, we know that each time on what we are. There is no surprise.

SOUND QUALITY

It's a bit of a Swiss Army Knife pedalboard, it can serve overdrive boost for the lead in "Metalised" sound, to use only the frequency range does not overlap other members group, or simply customize your sound.

I used a lot for the lead, adding a bump up medium: simple and very effective
She served punctually at lower my serious detach myself from the second guitarist.
But it is now permanently on a personal setting for me and this is where it is most needed: this is a really neat tool to forge a sound to be.

The 10 band EQ is simple, but NOT FAST at all to adjust. It can actually do lots of things with a real efficiency, but it is ALWAYS working ants push each knob slowly ... should expect multiple trial and error before you get the desired effect.

OVERALL OPINION

This is really not a pedal "plug and play", but it is also why it is exciting.
It is expensive and will probably not the first choice of pedal that its possibilities are not so simply defined: to explain more clearly when looking for an overdrive boost you take when you want to play metal it takes Fullbore ... An equalizer is not the first idea.

This led me to consider me his case was one of my default Mesa TA15: Poverty sound control equalizer (bass, Treeble). I then made the pleasant discovery of the extent of its uses, and can no longer do without.

Kerry King is fairly well known for boosting his amps with an EQ. He generally uses a "frown" pattern to really help push the front end of the JCM800s he plays. Because he used one of these for years, MXR decided to finally give him his own signature pedal, right around when he got his signature Marshall. However, it's pretty much the same as the normal 10 band EQ that MXR has offered for years. The main difference is that this can be run into two amps since Kerry King likes to run multiple Marshalls.

UTILIZATION

The housing is a sturdy metal housing that has this crinkle/wrinkle black finish. Each individual band has its own LED, so you can tell where everything is just by looking at it. One pain is that you really need an adaptor with this thing, and it's one of those 18v adapters, so you can't easily power it with conventional power supplies. The sliders move nicely, and it's fairly low noise. The manual gives you some nice example settings that you can mess with, but I generally just go with some sort of midrange boost, unless I'm using this in the loop.

SOUND QUALITY

The pedal is fairly noise free, which is a huge plus. The Boss pedals generally are somewhat noisy, and it can be a real tone sucker. This doesn't seem to suck any tone, and it's super easy to use. There are two main places you can use this pedal: in front or in the loop. If you use it in front, you'll be using it like a gain pedal. You can boost your input to help give you more "power" from your pickups. It's very much like a tubescreamer this way. When you put it in the loop, you can shape how the actual amp sounds. It's like having a separate EQ to help dial in the exact sound you hear in your head. This is super helpful, but you need to have a serial loop or 100% mix going on for this to work properly.

OVERALL OPINION

The pedal is solid, but I don't think it's worth spending the extra money on unless you absolutely need the extra outputs to drive more than one amp with this thing. That's the main reason to buy this pedal. If you only run a single amp, just look into getting the normal one, or maybe even look into the Build Your Own Clone 10 band EQ. That's actually my favorite EQ on the market.

I think everything has been said previously.
10 frequency bands, that's all it takes to be working fine its sound.
And the sliders LED that light up, it's really good!

UTILIZATION

At first glance, it's very simple, just play with the sliders frequency, volume and gain to its effect.
But behind this simple operation, there is some complexity. Indeed, it is necessary to do a job analysis and sound frequencies to make a good use. One must ask: do I add serious? If so, how many dB more? Which frequencies, 32.25 Hz, 62.5 or 125, or 3?
I will say a simple and complex.

SOUND QUALITY

I use it as EQ to improve the sound in my system: POD (3 knobs: bass, mid and treble) and Bugera V5 (a button that reduces the treble tone).
The difference between the pedal active or not is really gross! My sound is more defined, it has more grain when it is activated.
To tweak the sound, simply move the cursor right slightly. For radical change, just change a few more sliders. What stupid.

OVERALL OPINION

pedal is indispensable to me. A late effect of EQ and effective that can significantly improve the sound and the same for musicians with a mid-range equipment.
However it will make the effort to understand the game of the frequencies to use it well.

The KFK-1 Kerry King signature EQ is a 10 band graphic EQ pedal from MXR. The pedal has 10 sliders that can cut or boost that frequency by 12dB. The bands available are 31.25 hz, 62.5 hz, 125 hz, 250 hz, 500 hz, 1 khz, 2 khz, 4 khz, 8 khz, and 16 khz. The pedal has a gain slider for the input and a volume slider for the outputs. There are two outputs available for use with two amps at once. The pedal can be powered by 9 volt batter or external AC adapter.

UTILIZATION

This pedal is built extremely well like most MXR pedals. The housing is made of all metal and the bypass switch is very rugged. It has “positive feel” sliders that hold the settings very well, even if bumped, and are illuminated so the settings can be read on a dark stage during a gig. The tattoo graphics could come off cheesy, but actually don’t look bad.

SOUND QUALITY

There are a lot of options in this pedal. There are more than enough sliders to find the right frequency you need to change to get your tone right where you want it. I feel this pedal is best used to tame the low end of an amp and really tighten it up for use with metal or hard rock, but it can be useful in all musical settings. It is super quiet and doesn’t add any noise to your signal chain, unlike the noisy Boss GE-7. It really lets you shape your sound and make a decent amp sound even better.

OVERALL OPINION

Overall this is a great EQ pedal if you need this much versatility. I moved back to the MXR 6 band equalizer and gave up a few options, but saved room on my pedal board. The 10 band is nice, but it rather large and bulky. I just use an EQ pedal for a drastic filtered tone, but for reeling in the tone of an amp or for using two amps I’d probably stick with the more versatile 10 band. This pedal and the six band MXR is built for touring, so I don’t worry about reliability. The lighted sliders are great at gigs and the switch feels really solid with a nice click when you engage the pedal. Overall I think MXR has the best EQ pedals out there right now, and I would more than urge you to pick up the MXR over the Boss version.

So while the C con zav the 10 bands to adjust your sound or boost + 2 sound settings dentre the volume of the EQ and the output. By no batteries against it fo absolutely put a power supply! There are two stereo output to the C box really well and is unbreakable!

UTILIZATION

Same for Careers News is nothing more simple com all EQ! on the other hand must still know in sy frequencies to fully address this is lacking in sound level.

SOUND QUALITY

The sound is vrment nikel a breath from a little distortion but it's really good!
I have two Fender (1 strato and a tele) and the sound is terrible ca boost the sound even more Dja tres bo D fender!

OVERALL OPINION

F ca ke 4 months I have I do not regret at all I'm thrilled! And if you have prob of D sound diffrence between the distortion and the clean EQ dla C cancels the madness!

Equalizer, you said equalizer? In seeking boost my sound that I came across this little gem: a 10-band equalizer with a SETTING THE volume and gain more, making a power supply (required, anointing in the vehicle 18V, So no battery!) between one and two outputs.
Each "strip" possde a diode and all light up when the effect is switched on the top!

UTILIZATION

In terms of rglages, it could not be more simple: you hacks you play, you hacks, you play kindergarten level .... ...
The manual is amber, but clear (all fawn, I read it once ...)

SOUND QUALITY

So the we enter the heart of the matter! It's amazing what a sound this thing, I'm back!! Placed in the effects loop, the pedals becomes ultimate weapon: you think you have reached the limits of your amp, well no, she rejects them again ...
With my config (piranha + SG), I can get sounds extreme while remaining clean (for the saturation level reached), frankly, is amazing.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for three months, there is nothing wrong, it's really good trs. The PDAL is CHRE, but the manufacturing quality is great. If it fails, it is clear, I achte another pronto!
