Big extreme metal type distortion.

1 input and 1 output, 4 knobs (volume, bass, mid, treble) and look fabulous!

UTILIZATION

Very easy to use. When the battery is installed, you plug it and play!

SOUND QUALITY

A very big distortion not to put all hands.
Very difficult to adjust at first, but then what happiness. For me it's the best guitar distortion that exists.

We can do any type of metal either thrash, death, black, doom, grind, etc. ...
Generally found the sound we are looking fairly easily once it was well in hand.

The bass are quite interesting and powerful mediums but also the highs are a bit garish and difficult to master (this may be why they called them scream ...). But once well balanced with the rest of the big ca sends power!

It's been almost 10 years that I use and I'm really not disappointed with the sound. I used it with lots of different power amps (100W to the 2W through 10W and 30W's) and she never fails.
The ideal is to use a 100W amp driven between 50% and 80%, that of the great powers that it delivers a big sound.

I use a Peavey Bandit 112 and frankly it gives me satisfaction.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a good ten years and I get hooked. I never tire yet.

The advantage is that it is intended for metal and it provides both the metal very fast and violent as in the slow and heavy metal.

The small disadvantage is the Treble EQ is a bit difficult to master at first.
There is also another problem (but is generally on the pedals Dod) that resides in the switch of the pedals. not very strong, I did it repaired once before edging change by a large push button switch as well purchased a robust electronics stores. And since then, no worries.

I remake this choice if it still exists. Alas, this model is no longer and was replaced by a model similar to Digitech (but who looks a little less awesome). Indeed I hope that this new model incorporates the same features as the Dod.
