UTILIZATION

Like all Boss what!

SOUND QUALITY

This distortion is filled with really good function. Obviously, its a super clean the base, is a bit poor but stepfather with a disto-amp lgre the base, is a miracle (see the view a bit below) .

OVERALL OPINION

This is my little Premire, I have 10 years and she always met.
Sr is my style a little volumes but coupling it with other pedals or a good amp, it s'avre trs versatile.
I therefore advise to have the DS-2 pedals in its fleet, it's really not the € lost!

The Boss DS-2 is a pedal with his rather grunge mode 1 mode 2 turbo boust solos with a more acute pressédent mode. The distortion is very Sufis and not exaggerated.

UTILIZATION

Very easy to use four pots. The first volume for the 2em is tonalitée the 3em used to adjust the distortion. Finally, the last portar can change the mode I or II.

SOUND QUALITY

Pedal slightly color your amp, but much less than a DS1.

OVERALL OPINION

Calitée good pedal, it is indestructible, even after 10 years the sound remains the same provided they do not tinker too much electronica.
The sound is OK, but the mode II distortion is the one I use most because it allows a good distortion for solos.

Three potentiomtre: Level, Ring and Disto ... Two types of distortion ... there is a remote jack for switching between the two types of distortion. It's a tank (requires Boss)

UTILIZATION

It's simple, too simple.

SOUND QUALITY

The sound quality is quite rotten. It sounds way too artificial and cold. The pallet of effort is ridiculous. Zero for rhythm, no solos for ... dsesprant it. I use it with old synth shit ... but not with my guitar!

OVERALL OPINION

This is my Premire pedals. Must have 10 years. The report is really not qualitprix INTERESTED. I never use it! I keep it for the collection ... I like the color (it has! dj). Right now, I tate to put my homemade Fuzz in or to transform it into FS-5 ... (The DS-2 has a really rotten, but the box is big enough to put another circuit ...) For the same price, you can have a much more versatile distortion in the concurrency ... Go see the cot instead of Digitech, EH (It sounds good but is too expensive for what it is ... if the electronic put you off, there are plenty of plans to clone the net. .. It must be the effect most easily couraging by itself), or Jacques! (A worthwhile investment!) The distortion, it really is not the strong point of Boss.
To avoid!

Excellent distortions in turbo is even better

UTILIZATION

Gnrale configuration could not be simpler, just playing with the knobs we find little variation diferentes distortions.
The manual is excellent, with examples of settings that I use elsewhere.

SOUND QUALITY

The (the same) distortion is impeccable, classic and trs is effective, probably the best I've heard, it can blend in with all my compositions, and in concert, it's really the top.
I use it on everything: my Flying V, my acoustic, my synth (a synth rotten but this distortion gives life), and I am satisfied with the trs bte.
I like the same look.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a few months and I've had really good with rsultats.
Before I tried to buy a metal box I found it bland in the cot.
With the experience I definitely do it again this choice
When the ratio quality price, I pay 900 pesos or in the 65 euros, and really a distortion of this quality is drisoire.

Distortion is the pure and simple. It plays a lot in the treble, and Turbo mode is nice for the trs rhythms and solos more nerv. It's analog.

UTILIZATION

4 potentiomtres: one volume, one Tone to a distortion and a final trigger for the Turbo mode (you can also connect a Switch, which is a good thing trs).
I mating with an OD-1 (a gives a hell of a glove for palm mute), a CH-1 and RV-2 (blows with the delay, are overpowered).

SOUND QUALITY

Well we're going to love or we will not like, if you're fan of Punk / Rock / Metal Grunge or even nag too much, the distortion is perfect, it goes everywhere.
It sounds pretty trebble in short, and when one goes into turbo mode, to suffer even more, great for solos!
Finally I really like it sounds, it lends a fresh wind in your music. As to your rglages against it may be noisy trs.

OVERALL OPINION

I play with the pedals in groups for a year, I'd buy it because Kurt Cobain had the same (...) and I do not regret at all buying. It is a distortion that is used by many people so the guitarist of Red Hot Chilli Peppers, or Steve Vai in a certain times. I like its sound, and it sends EHJV, and I do dbarasserai for anything!
A little tip, put the volume 12, the tone 24:30, the distal one hour, and the switch, and you have a good sound trs trs. If you dirty in me, or do not want us to hear your mistakes, background distortion.

They are quite simple ... the caractéristiks.

UTILIZATION

T'apuis you running, and you rock and roll baby! (For real rock and roll, do not take this pedal).

SOUND QUALITY

The sound is as many have said, very flat. But it is versatile.
The settings are in my eyes, not so obvious as that. I got a lot of spray. Now I have my settings, it is well integrated in my rig, you touch more!

OVERALL OPINION

It manages this pedal, but the first speaker RAPORT a good quality / price, I said can be ... But for me it's not 80 euros gratos ... MIDI richouillard band dirty ...

Analog distortion pedal.
3 knobs: level, tone, drive, plus a "potinterrupteur" that we turn to switch to turbo.
can connect a footswitch.
I take off one point for the single tone knob, which limits possible sounds.
box super strong (the knobs too)

UTILIZATION

It plugs directly into the amp, it is pressed and it's good, it's frankly not complicated.
the knob "level" is accurate, just right.
the battery lasts quite a while, it is used in our local, several groups (it was not all afford to have an individual office) and it's been two weeks it takes for two hours of use per day on average.
you can easily find a good sound grunge.
by knob against the "tone" makes it sound very showy from a half of the race, I personally put it at 10.
I take off one point for the tone knob evil "standard"

SOUND QUALITY

Well, for the sounds, it must be clear, it is done for grunge! Crunch sounds are not terrible, it's still cold, and too dirty. by against, with more gain, it sounds great (for the grunge always), the sound is perfect with a special grain, légèrementcoloré, etc ... (as you push too much on the tone knob), however it lacks saturation mode 1, the turbo mode with just enough of that side.
the metalheads go their way, the palm mutes are pathetic, its typed pan with a bic stilo, pathetic (I have a digitech death metal, it has nothing to do, the grunge ds2 is a scooter, the Ariane 5 is death metal!)
I take away two points for versatility, then 8 because in his field is great.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for two weeks earlier, with a Telecaster Custom and a dean, it is great for grunge, with its grain so special is a treat for the grunge, punk ... on the other hand for the metal is a horror! it is pitiful (compared to a death metal digitech, dod, or mt2) so I repeat again, NOT FOR METAL! it is very good in the grunge, leave it where it is.
it is worth the price, I got it for 75 euros, and jen parcequ'elle'm glad I can visit records quieter than metal. and as it is used in addition to the five groups that come in the room, so I do it again this choice, but by removing only (no concurrency serious in these prices)

Just a message to hugo 280 that says that this pedal does not sound at all ... Kurt Cobain grunge itself uses a DS-1 and DS-2 ... ah yes, but true that kurt c fesait flamenco ... excuse me ... well all this that we need to know how to use stuff are saying before the c. ..
I use my ds-1 and c true that the sound varies on different amps but I when I plugged into my yamaha transo 100w (yes when we are young we do not afford any of the lamp) and I play smells like teen spirit as I tell you that the hairs c.. that stand (and I do not come to start the guitar ...) on this:

UTILIZATION

Too simple 3-button

SOUND QUALITY

10/10 if you can find the amp that goes with

OVERALL OPINION

Heuuuheuu I love my exus 10/10

Summary of advice on the Boss DS-2:
The distortion pedal "Boss Turbo Distortion DS-2" is equip with 3 knobs:
- 1 level (volume)
- A tone (Tone)
- 1 drive (distortion)
+ 1 turbo (or turbo1 TURBO2)
Like all Boss pedals, it's solid. Warranty.

UTILIZATION

Trs use Simple!
3 knobs to turn, and you can send!
The manual is very well, many examples of rglages which can be used. But the simplicity of use is such that it can use its own rglages directly.

SOUND QUALITY

Pedals made for grunge, rock and even punk. In fact, for the styles less hard than the metal. The distortion is pretty standard, it provides good, though sometimes cold or flat. The key is to find the amp that goes with it and everything. We like it or not is a matter of taste. Try before you buy.

OVERALL OPINION

TRS is a robust pedals without problem. After 10 years of use, it always produces the same sound. The report qualitprix is ​​correct (may be an expensive can) but it can be used to have half price.
You can play a lot of things, mostly grunge, punk or rock. But not a sound as the metal trash.
I must say that Kurt Cobain used him as a DS-1 and DS-2, and the Red Hot
Chilli Peppers, or Steve Vai at a given time ...

Everything has been said.

UTILIZATION

Very easy to use there are three buttons to turn.

SOUND QUALITY

Well actually I do not know if I have a japan or U.S. but in any case I think the sound is not too soft top. we see that it's digital.
there is a sound that suits me with this pedal I use it with very little gain to color my sound a little clearer.

OVERALL OPINION

I depui 2 years ago I like this pedal and it still has a place in my rack but I repeat do not use most in my since I composed a maxon.

I think all the same again this choice and I would put in my rack cncert When I buy a new power supply.

The value for money is excellent.
this was my first pedal ..

Disto in a compact and visually appealing
2 modes
purposes of rglages
but a very effective and pleasant distortion
c mtalleux and not for the better
I find it a very good mouth this PDAL

UTILIZATION

Simple
This does not prevent the pedal from etrre prcise and do what is asked

SOUND QUALITY

Very good sound quality
Of course I saw the most beautiful distos a concert but
for the home she's really top
and the quality is perfectly sufficient

OVERALL OPINION

I can buy 10 just because there are plenty of positions that I like the pedals on and I found annoying was down to my change rglages
With my telecaster I do well the little spit pedals which in addition to be very aesthetic is very effective

Listening to him I want to hang people who say that digital is rotten and that nothing beats a good old analog pedals
I have a big muff and I abandoned in favor of my little DS 2 much less cumbersome and more efficient

To buy a gem without hesitation

See other opinions nothing more to say.

Oh yes it's been 10 years since she take shots Caterpie *** / *** doc mart in the head and has not moved is like new!

-1: The remote is not well located if your trs DS2 pedal is in a somewhat poard encombrbr />
and for neuneuls who think and this is analog pedals and not numrique (not y'en but I swear !!!!)

UTILIZATION

The manual is nothing but check the amprage and polarity of the pedals for a sufficient power supply in a PBoard (and still is indicated under the pedals ... )

However finding the right sound is not empty we must take the time to get the sound that we like: The rglage mid-mid-max is bogus!!
Note that it responds to Manir trs Ingala depending on the amp used and the output level of the guitar

SOUND QUALITY

I've heard / read anything and everything on this PDAL ...
you need to know:

- This is not a distortion lamp (some would say no heat, see ....)
- This is not a distortion mtal (yes y 'neuneus who thinks ...)
- This is not a distortion "grunge" (not a bin not drool, it's not dirty, for a cons can shoot the fuzz. If you want a grunge sound, plant a screwdriver in the membrane of your HP and plays)
- It is sorely lacking in dynamic (but can catch up ca)

I like this even when nanmoins pedals: Despite a severe lack of dynamics, it has a grain that can rvler trs interesting and very flat to me.
I personally find this distortion trs own and I will send a chouilla compression just prior to rhausser the dynamics of the pedals. Ben has worked miracles!

now it is connected such that sr pedals in a 15-amp transistor pushed 30w 2 / 10, with a crappy HP is clear that it is not miracles (I started as ca as everyone ....)...

APRS with the amp lamp, taking the time to touver good sound and make a few in between has become EHJV CARREMENT nice. Listen on your same: sample (http://perso.orange.fr/teambiohazard/sample/cort% 20KX% 20solo.mp3)

I'll put 7 for grain and bran removed and I point to the lack of dynamics.

not rely too much on opinion; by you even try and push the amp when you try it!

OVERALL OPINION

I dnigr the pedals for a while due to lack of momentum. I found a shame because the tone and grain m'interaissait enormment. But the purchase of the compressor APRS I thought such an elected saving his people, I can be Pourva do something about it. ben Here's it's done.

I bought this PDAL teen and being a fan of kurt (yeah ....) without trying it before until I faïsses of a rhythmic going, solo, aie aie aie!
and today it serves me enormment
Today I got it because my Achteras evolved into a cleaner sound. but if I played grunge, metal or not I would take the pedals is sr!
