UTILIZATION

It selects the type of distortion, adjusting the gain, tone and level. Nothing too complicated ...

Where it is more annoying (I agree with above) is the race of winning. Actually to 3 / 4 one gets a good overdrive and soon you push a bit further, we move on to a hard distortion that wallpaper! it lacks a little subtlety in the settings ...

Otherwise setting tone and output level ok.

Otherwise, change the battery is a bit boring (like all Behringer pedals). But if you use a power supply is OK

SOUND QUALITY

Of any good overall.

I do not know the pedals emulated (except a little Rat). But it sounds pretty good.

DS1: the distortion typically typed a little Fuzz. A big sound a little dirty and slimy that much hard to do a good hard rock or metal. But be a little lower tone of the pedal if it sounds too shrill for my taste.

D +: Overdrive boosted very medium nickel to play ZZ Top. This mode of personality.

Rat: Fuzz with great presence. Well-defined bass. Allows for either a light or just plain overdrive sound like Big Muff. Going very well on Sorrow Pink Floyd. It seems to be fairly accurate compared to the original.
The criticisms I can make this pedal is the difference in volume between different modes and a lack of subtlety when playing with the Drive just pushed. But I think it is not for use overdrive but rather as a very powerful distortion. So it makes sense that it is more comfortable in distortion. This is what is expected and why it does it well ...
Also, the overall impression is still sound a bit "dirty".
But the fault really bothersome is the presence of noise artifacts in the background when the sound of the guitar is weakened (eg keeping score). But it comes off when rubbed with a noise gate ...

OVERALL OPINION

This is not a definitive opinion because I have not yet exploited its full potential.
But at first glance, this pedal is fulfilling its function and is even surprising for the price.
This gives a wide range of sound with only if it is only three modes available. If after we play on the drive and tone, we still get other sounds ...

The sound that emerges is not cold at all, it has a huge potato. In addition, this pedal produces no more breath than the average. If you are looking for a powerful overdrive, it will, of which distos tear - even better. But for a crunch / blues, go your way. Better in this case move on Behringer TO800 (copy of the Tube Screamer).
