    OVERALL OPINION

    Used for 2 months, a great combination with my duel overdrive, my sound has compltement changed (much better), if I had I would try as much of a boost vox lamps

    I tried several pedals boost: Rocktron Nitro, Electro Harmonix and MXR M133 LPB1. Frankly, the M133 is the most neutral (what I was looking). I tried to string beginners in effect to increase the gain, and the end to raise the volume, everything passes. Each of view. Warning: if you use the distortion on your amp with a gain standard, the boost does not significantly rhaussera sound. It will add in better against DEFINITIONS and clarity. For all that is placed in the chain of effects and clear sound, this MXR done against 100% perfect: the still, bright, clarity and precision are waiting for you.
    Note that the pedals will eventually produce crunch that pushes beyond the 2 / 3 (which is standard dj if you have: other instruments will drown!). So perfect: it boosts without dnaturer!

    OVERALL OPINION

    I find the price (100 euros) but I'm pretty lev fully happy with the pedals effectively. I recommend if you want acqurir a boost, try also LPB1 Electro Harmonix: half CHRE fairly neutral and I think too. The LPB1 has a physical architecture (mtal box, stomp switch and a knob) the same ... APRS you to see. I am plutt MXR ... I really hsit between the two and that's the brand that Determines me! In any case, if c'tait again: YES, I will take the M133!

    - Clean channel: volume and input gain, the amplifier Tendera crunchiser
    - Channel crunch / od: input gain, increased volume and lightweight gnrale
    - Distortion channel: input gain
    The intrt here is sort of going beyond the maximum position of the volume knob on the guitar (more gain and / or volume)!

    >> Branch in the effects loop of the amp:
    - Contribution of volume gnrale on all channels, the trend crunchisation the clean channel.
    The stroke of the gain knob is progressive, and pass the 3 / 4 of the travel of knob, the boost is pronounced trs. The zero-point of the race is its your departure.

    SOUND QUALITY

    Transparency! Full compliance with the sound of the amp. Transparency 95%, 5% high mdiums apprciables.
    Rather, I see the M133 ( http://img176.imageshack.us/img176/5285/mxrm133001db4.jpg ) as an accessory rather than an effect itself, because ultimately it's like adding a deuxime mode on channels of the amp, it broadens the pannel winning this one.
    Other purposes: to adjust the output level between different guitars / pickups on a same amp, a lot of guitarists use it also to boost a solo.
    I read it was used as a buffer: it lowers the impdance. Information vrifier ...

    The sound quality is the hardware used with the Micro Amp.

    because the Micro Amp is almost neutral just presence, crystal-clear, nor

    Power! as if I spent an active passive pickups, the goal is not to add gain to saturation, but riffs like AC / DC or even Rage against the machine,

If in fact because of a change of micro strata lgrement its crunch becomes much more relevant and more pronounced.
    In boost mode, moving from one its a lot extra for the chorus, it's fabulous. But since I have, I and my branch systmatiquement couple strat Japan or Japanese old copy + marshall 8080 vintage is splendid to hear is like a body a little dull APRS a good cleaning and a coup of polish!

    Preamp / Gain boost, setting unique gain

    UTILIZATION

    Ultra easy to use

    SOUND QUALITY

    Excellent, quite faithfully reproduces the sound of the amp (best used with a tube amp, so) by inflating the sound: more body, more dynamic. Personally I use it plugged in front (the record is very different in effects loop). The boost is net gain, and translates into boost volume on sounds somewhat saturated

    OVERALL OPINION

    Become indispensable in my pedal board, ultra valuable for solos or to act as a channel between a clean crunch saturation.

    UTILIZATION

    Config ultra simple, 1 volume pot, which increases the volume level or desired.

    SOUND QUALITY

    Very clean and transparent, I use preso at 11:00 in the loop as a reserve volume to go solo (clear, crunch or saturated). A very good reserve volume saturated with a little after 15:00.

    since I tried the RC booster Equally convincing is much more expensive, and it also has other options (bass / treeble, gain / volume)
    If you have limited budget is an interesting pedal to increase the volume of part (solo for instance) without much effort for that, let's be clear after AC did not revolutionize the sound you have. If you want more grain should rather try to boost the ep more expensive but otherwise inducing him The thing is his least neutral, if you want a little transparency to the price mxr is for you.
