Big, big sound to go! (provided that we find the right settings). ... In short sound quality and versatility.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for four months and I put my other distortion in placard.J 've tried other brands and it comes out really lot.Un cheap, but is qualitée appointment.
    Goodies:
    The accuracy of the
    The versatility
    The isf
    Cons:
    The price
    Weight (1.2 kg)
    This choice I would do without hesitation and I suggest anyone looking for a good distortion warm and versatile.

Azro the diffent sound is good but in both cases.
    ISF ISF ... ah! A marvel!
    The knob to switch a sound rather American (sound asser prcis with many acute) has a rather typical English sound (a warmer) and of course this can rgler between the two .. is a knob!
    Ranging from clean to hard rock, to the crunch rock ect ...
    The only small problem is what does not go far enough in the saturation ...
    a little bit just to mtal (at least the big mtal), in which case it will move to the booster or the model HT dist X.
    In short it's a wonder ... and what versatility! A very large number of choice ...

    OVERALL OPINION

    Bon bah immedia ... that comes with that for 189 euros, a bit expensive but it's true at all lamp and something else ... I try a tube platinum AMT in the same range of prices (very beautiful but too little gain versatile ...) and the ibanez tube king home (really horrible looking! but also versatile)
    I play on an all-tube amp so the rendering is fantastic ... I tried it on a transistor aps ...
    I would do this choice of course, a brand that grew by the day and that we should not put cot ...
    Not intended for the big big mtaleux ... even if it is still possible to make mtal but not in the big big ... the only small problem ...

    See more advice. As for me, everything is OK on Features

    UTILIZATION

    Very simple configuration, editing is easy
    The manual! not open yet! not really need

    SOUND QUALITY

    From the smallest to the big crunch distortion American English through the sound, everything is possible on this pedal, and whatever the position of the knobs (like the previous opinion ds), it sounds. It warms the sound of the amp (JCM 2000 TSL 602 in the clear for Test + P90 Les Paul DC)
    Even pushing 90 P in their corner, in large distortion, the bass are not runny, the mids and treble are nice, not aggressive. These microphones are sometimes difficult with large saturation, well then, not at all!…

    I'll have to try it with double qd same.

    OVERALL OPINION

    A friend lent me, I have been trying today and I was convinced from the start. I tried many other distos before this one, it moves the front runners ds issue price / quality ratio.
    Only drawback: the weight and size, but if you want the lamp, there's not much choice ...

    Nice all around distortion pedal.

    Blackstar Amplification HT-DistPublished on 07/26/11 at 21:14
    Blackstar has made a huge splash on the amp world in recent years. They have made great sounding fantastically priced amps for the masses. They have been able to keep their prices very low and that is a thng that has propelled them into stardom. They have successfully taking a huge niche in the market over the last few years. To add to their prestige they have included a whole line of distortion pedals as well.

    This pedal is almost a full preamp in a pedal form. This pedal has gain, bass, middle, treble, ISF, and level. This is pretty much the exact same control knob front panel as many of their amps. This has a speaker simulated output which is also on their regular amps. So this peda…

    Blackstar has made a huge splash on the amp world in recent years. They have made great sounding fantastically priced amps for the masses. They have been able to keep their prices very low and that is a thng that has propelled them into stardom. They have successfully taking a huge niche in the market over the last few years. To add to their prestige they have included a whole line of distortion pedals as well.

    This pedal is almost a full preamp in a pedal form. This pedal has gain, bass, middle, treble, ISF, and level. This is pretty much the exact same control knob front panel as many of their amps. This has a speaker simulated output which is also on their regular amps. So this pedal is basically a preamp peal.

    UTILIZATION

    * Genuine valve design
    * Operates at 300V HT
    * Cascaded valve gain stages
    * Responds like a valve amp
    * Unique enhanced tone controls
    * Exclusive Infinite Shape Feature (ISF)

    * Fully equipped for stage or studio
    * Speaker emulated output
    * High integrity buffered bypass
    * Power supply included
    * Silent switching





    SOUND QUALITY

    The tone of this pedal is gritty and very high gain. This pedal actually sound like a overidrven tube amp. I am not a distortion pedal guy. I generally like to get my tone and gain from the amps preamp combined with the power tube section of the amp. However, this pedal comes as close to the real deal as I have heard from any pedal. This pedal recreates what sound you would hear out of a valve tube amp.

    You get a very chunky creamy overdrive tone that you can play excellent lead with but even better rhythm's with. Th gain from this pedal is very addicting and just makes you want to crank up your amp to loud obnoxious volumes. It has a great fat tone and the voicing is very British but just fits perfectly to the rest of the BLackstar line of pedals and amps.

    OVERALL OPINION

    You can pick these peals up new for right at around $199, which is not bad for a great sounding preamp pedal. I would recommend this pedal to anyone who has a clean amp and needs a high gain tone out of that amp. You get a great sounding tone and for not a whole lot of money. This is one of the best sounding units that I have ever heard and for this price it is a no brainer.

    Characteristics have already been presented, I will not repeat it.
    The strength of the housing inspires confidence!
    Too bad all the same food that is specific to this pedal, you can not connect it to a power supply "spider".

    UTILIZATION

    The operation of the pedal is very simple. However, the wide range of sounds available is very wide. The complexity arises therefore not from the ergonomics of the pedal but its wealth!

    SOUND QUALITY

    Entire wealth of the sound panel can find the sound that seeks and serves in particular to carefully observe the natural color of the couple guitar / amp.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for over a year, both in rehearsal and concert (bar type), combined with a guitar Reverend Volcano, and a Vox AC15. I am looking first and foremost a rock its type / hard 70ies, and this trio is perfect!
    I'm totally delighted. I recommend this product.

    Pedal using real tube technology (not as vox)
    powered by 16 volt transformer special.

    Panel type preamp: MIDS HIGH GAIN LOW LEVEL ISF
    ISF: it is a midrange contour control

    UTILIZATION

    For do know the basics of sound distorted,
    this pedal makes the perfect sound of any known group of rock, blues, punk, metal ..

    Nirvana, AC DC, Metallica is finally feasible with a single pedal
    I'll try to group as well, but it seems no longer need to boost solo: it sends a lot of terribly high harmonics at the lower bending! Effect

    SOUND QUALITY

    absolutely perfect,
    I could not believe but the sound distortion perfect
    is in this pedal!

    No more expensive amps to 3000 euros!

    I plan to buy the whole series of these Blackstar ...
    Of course we must respect the quality with quality gear: gibson, mesa boogie! The record is divine, a distortion that makes it weighed!
