Trs boss pedals and knobs classic concentric knobs rgl the presence, the medium, bass, treble, level and gain.
There is only one channel, switching from a perfect clean a large overdrive by turning the knob for gain.
Note the two prsence between a normal and bright.

UTILIZATION

Easy as a boss, lean to turn, you turn the knobs and you play. RAS
Note that the insertion of a jack causes the power, but it is a small delay of 1 or 2 seconds before the sound ...

SOUND QUALITY

Trs not effective as pedals. The fender of my first course is a little warmer but it loses momentum. My marshall, he earns a chouille dynamics and a little serious and that's ...
Then I find the saturation super cold and synthetic, rather shrill, trs transistor which, as a saturation pedals a little bad. It is significantly below a TS808 for example.
The EQ is not super effective, but may be the band mdium gives a lot of warmth and brightness to the sound quite enjoyable.

OVERALL OPINION

It is my first, I do not envy him, I feel it's a PDAL which serves nothing. The clean sound is not transcendent and saturation is synthetic ... Ho hum just a. Certainly we gain a certain douveur and heat in the low and lower-mdium with some compression too, but it's good trslger, a good compressor / EQ could do the same.
I try in the back of the loop, it's ugly and we feel that it lacks a pramp (like when you put a direct distortion pedals into a power amp what), but in the pr amp is not great either, not much has changed much.
So I do not know APRS bassman, I never over jou ... M'enfin good, has not give the impression of dealing a legendary amplifier, far l.
