zicopilote « The lil box that disconnects ... »
Published on 09/29/13 at 10:38Small preamp (yes this is more than a distortion pedal) made in Russia, emulating the famous Peavey 5150/6505.
Provided a direct output, and a second baffle emulating the 5150/6505.
Power supply (not included) 9V or 12V, either.
A single channel, with true bypass.
UTILIZATION
It can not be simpler: Low (past noon, the setting is much more) Mediums (will largely define the overall character of the sound), Treble (again very fine adjustment to achieve his idea).
Plug and play, it looks solid, it's effective.
SOUND QUALITY
The big slap.
It does NOT replace a 5150 or a 6505, but what is on is that the emulated output from the effect processor and live mix console with Eq / Comp / etc ... properly adjusted, bah my friends, it sings!
My DiMarzio, whether the DP159Evo or D-Activator finally give her EC!
The EQ settings are simple table entry (pledge of equipment led), unlike the V-Amp Pro, which required two parametric EQ layers not to break and mix and ears.
Palm mutes are less powerful than the V-Amp Pro, you can compensate by pushing the gain background tad, but then it starts to drool a little (those who love the fuzz do not complain). Clean and sharp sound, gain at noon ensures proper balance.
A small Maxon OD-808 input should solve this problem and provide more attack while keeping the edge of the beast (so next purchase).
In any event a success.
OVERALL OPINION
Purchase 2 months of waiting.
Connection: 2 minutes.
Settings to p'tits onions (including console): 15 minutes.
Fun to play / record / mix: HUGE.
You like big distortion way Machine Head, Slipknot, Pantera?
You still want to shape its TON?
You have an old cabinet with a SM57 and no gold coins for the 6505 head?
Or you want to play live table with its 95% true?
So what are you waiting for go and get one?
PS: AMT does the same thing for Mesa, Soldano, Marshmal, etc ... and even two channels! Check out their website!
Y are strong these russkoff ...
