«  Correct in the box, very credible. »

UTILIZATION

Config simple, as with any pedal.
The influence of tone controls is limited, especially the bass, sorry.
A manual? For a pedal? Mmmouhahhahaaaaahaaaaaa!!

SOUND QUALITY

I can not judge the sound quality in the configuration where I connected: the input of a Torpedo CAB itself connected to a monitor.
This is in the spirit of a Rectifier, but with the following caveats:
- A significant loss of low frequencies: only push the bass does not change much rendering, it is imperative to also lower the treble, which is a shame, for clarity to lose a little passage.
- Minimum saturation already sends the block: the pedal is not made to play blues in the old
For some we accept these biases, the pedal is actually very Rectifier in its sound, and we can say we are not stolen goods: it does.
Remains to be seen what it will give a true equalizer that would better sculpt frequencies: it's good, I have one
And then see what happens connected to an amplifier: the effect of Correct-ization he continues despite the sound signature of the amp. In my case, it should not be a problem, but try it anyway to see if my old DC5 manages to take a Rectif.

OVERALL OPINION

Purchased to enjoy a sound of a Correct configuration "light" (pedalboard plugged into a Torpedo CAB directly connected console), the contract is about to be filled. I tortured quite a quiet afternoon at home, but it remains to adjust the settings to get the low down slightly compared to the original and it should run. The box gives the best of herself with the gain between 3 and 7 (on a scale of 10). Beyond that, it gets a bit rough but anyway, 7 it rocks enough to tear the wallpaper neighbors. What do you need?
Whether it's cheap? Bingo is the case.
