    I just tried in a relatively short period of time but I think I've seen its features

    I do not know why Jacques dons his buttons name that does not mean anything, and especially not mean anything!

    Hate is in the blood low in the mid love in acute
    These tones are quite marked, can be kind of semi parametric equalization

    level is the level of distortion and fuzz knob (I have not tried since being focused on distortion)

    I do not know if it is analog, I think ....

    it's all out in

    UTILIZATION

    yes and no, it is true that the settings used to have quite varied tones, even if the grain does not change fundamentally.

    UTILIZATION

    yes and no, it is true that the settings used to have quite varied tones, even if the grain does not change fundamentally.

    no manual therefore no need to have it rotates it acts, though there may be interaction between the knobs 5

    SOUND QUALITY

    The grain is quite biting and quite attractive on a laney Lionhart 5w and a Fender bronco mono mic Di Marzio sending!

    Guitar only

    THERE has variations of settings, and you can get a full sound, finally dug a whole range of possibilities in terms of tone.

    Where I was disappointed it was on criteria integrations, I was expecting something other than just a range of tones despite the fuzz, and m "rightly expect greater extremes in terms of versatility.

    Anyway all positions are usable, but attention to breath and sensitive enough présznt when the level rises to more than median position

    I have not tried the fuzz, with the Apocalypse of death by audio fuzz with these 5 that has a special charm, and this box can compete Question grain and possibilities with it!

    OVERALL OPINION

    I just tried, I wished to acquire "used 80th so reasonably priced, but the field is too limited application has deterred me to take it, even if it remains a classic model recommended BUT am in total disagreement ds this forum who credits a versatile usage question, I will classify the distortion on a classic fuzz + therefore above in terms of effectiveness and efficiency of overdrive, though a bit bright but not on the heavy distortion either!

    It is true that I want in absolute gain pedal 2 channels that can move the thrust overdrive distortion (such as the effect Piod brand with the model what you want 2 made in Urkraine or Tritonlab brand with CARAVAN the model with a budget just over cad 200th (and 139 € for the new mercer box!) is a gap but a substantial price gap qualitative and bcp in terms of versatility

    The R / P / Q is very good for an argus price, good enough because it was nine in the same pedal distortion and fuzz.

    Label Steve Morse, is a purely commercial argument, and one that holds the site, has a priori nothing to do with that sold 4 knobs instead of 5 (the consumer version with better, weird!) and probably calibrated and adjusted to the desire of the master, but not in connection with this modest ... model series!

    Fuzz pedal ... and not just because the available sounds ranging from clean boost to ongoing feedback. Warning pedal is pretty ugly!

    UTILIZATION

    The pedal is a bit confusing at first, with the knobs as "Hate", "Blood" or "Love" ... A small passage on the manufacturer's website and it has a list of seven basic settings that allow see more clearly.
    In addition, the knobs interact, move the blood with love 1 or 50 and see the difference!

    SOUND QUALITY

    The range of effect thus obtained is huge, especially for a Fuzz!
    It is connected to a U.S. Std Tele with vintage microphone (Tornado kit tele55 ') and amplified by a Blues Junior III or TubeMeister.

    I used as much as a clean boost that crunch or as an OD.
    Mixed with a distortion of tube amp (here TubeMeister 18) slice it in bright, but watch out for feedback, the settings are fine.

    OVERALL OPINION

    This is my first fuzz pedal and already replaced all distortion / effects OD / Crunch boss GT-10 and the preamp (not difficult but some say anyway!).
    Pedal to try at least for emergency sound experience

    Overdrive / fuzz pedal analog format has the old

    UTILIZATION

    The config could not be simpler, very intuitive. not need a manual just his hand!

    SOUND QUALITY

    The sound is a disconcerting variation on rich clear transparent (the original grain and scratches are preserved amp) authenticity of bluffing! All sounds are used according to expectations. But typical old school rock.

    OVERALL OPINION

    J ene have that test. (But with the help of Mr. Jacques, I have plenty of time to fiddle with the pedal with the volume turned more)

    The price for the coup is more than justified.

    I tried this pedal yesterday ... I did still recovering .. I was away from home for a boss ... OD1 but it has everything!
    In addition to Mr. Jacques is a true passion that does not hesitate to give us compare products!

    It is a good analog pedals overdrive / distortion / fuzz can get everything with it is really versatile trs. Trs a grain which gives a thick fuzz sound and soon the coldness of certain effects. Rock, jazz, Mtal, Stoner, Funk, Pop, Blues anything is possible but it still retains a real personality.

    UTILIZATION

    The configuration is very original trs rglages perspective but with great finesse in the saturation remains prcise same high level of gain. In addition to a distortion pedals there are so many sounds with the low gain rglages bottom.

    SOUND QUALITY

    Sounds voluent trs quickly according rglages I possde a hotrod and a 5150 I must say that is your exact trs diffrent in 2 cases. On the fender it pushes the amp into a corner, but even small gain is your exact hyper efficient trs rock.
    The 5150 is a different sonic palette sounds are sharper you get absolutely everything from the lightweight crunch distortion / fuzz wild, more coupled with the gain of the amplifier the sound is amazingly usable . On micro double or single micro it retains the characteristics of each guitar.

    OVERALL OPINION

    It is a PDAL we should offer all Students in music practicing guitar. I possde a lot of effects and it has its place in the cot Fulltone, Rat, Maxon, Ibanez, Boss and even (HM2 Japan for example) ...
    The report qualitprix is ​​unbeatable as we have several pedals in one.
    Trs a good choice for under 150 euros.

    One of distortion pedals, which proposes to combine them into clear, overdrive and fuzz why not! all in a terrible case which have the advantage of not let us opt for pedals that have the mouth and whose lettering and Aesthetics could suggest that it is the top (personally I love the dmarche, it's my ears that I have not the appearance of my pedals board)! it said!

    UTILIZATION

    In dpart one is a little apple has several rglages pedals, the first three "hate" "blood" "love" (simplifying "low," middle "and treble" (well it is not as simple as a)! and two others, a knob-level "level" and another "fuzz" (for it is also …

It looks at the b you and start tweaking the knobs in any sens.Les Premire two hours of use is hell we know more or you are, the more we advance on the effect and it is appl But by saying each knob movements! damn! What is this distortion, fuzz as I like a wahoo, and then no I prfere as a. .. hell exists, Jacques ace cre for us!

    SOUND QUALITY

    The effects are totally plurals, one is entitled to understand and not to drop the case immediately, but if you look at the question we have the impression of reading a book of Perec (the disto instructions )! on a Les Paul Custom Black Beauty as a standard telecaster or a Stratocaster ES 335 it goes something ... to ... DIFFERENT every time! (No essay on Parker Fly, a Hammer or an ESP DSOL ...)

    OVERALL OPINION

    Simply overwhelming especially for once: intelligent ... DSOL to make the poetry on the pedals, but I can not otherwise dcrire !!... matrial the sound and other nerd can go their way, esthtes the pedals and hand painted or there is nothing in it too! persuaded of its vintage and the other patients enchre the blind have no place in this galaxy. For others, welcome to a better world where he finally goes something.

    Pedal hard to classify: it is an overdrive / distortion, fuzz kind enough typed, but who can also produce clean and crunch sounds, in short she can do everything!


    UTILIZATION

    I agree with the previous one is lost at the beginning: the knobs have improbable names, like "hate", "blood", "love" ... It is said that the first 3 knobs correspond to the equalizer, which is not quite true.
    Then it takes three minutes to read the doc, and then everything becomes clear.
    Two knobs are fundamental: "love" that determines what is looking to have underfoot: an overdrive in the first third of the race and bias in the second half of the race (very schematically), and "Fuzz" which corresponds …

    Two knobs are fundamental: "love" that determines what is looking to have underfoot: an overdrive in the first third of the race and bias in the second half of the race (very schematically), and "Fuzz" which corresponds roughly to the rate of gain.
    "Hate" and "Blood" subtly alter the grain that is sought, and "level" determines the output level.

    After this first successful approach, there are still plenty of time to go to discover the incredible range of sounds that this pedal is capable of producing ...


    SOUND QUALITY

    Ultra versatile, we get almost anything you want, subject to place upstream of a good tube amp, and spend the time necessary in understanding subtle that little boi-box.
    I played on a Mesa Boogie Rectifier, including large modern distos are no longer brag, but with more vintage distos may be a little less exceptional. This is the pedal that I needed to produce fleshy or crunches distos stuffed fuzz cradingue harmonic type, I love it!
    While many things are possible with this pedal, however it excels in vintage colors instead (sounds from Hendrix to the Stones, ACDC or Guns n 'Roses ...). Mercer

    OVERALL OPINION

    The box is a separate concept, a pedal to try without taking any account of his look. She has tripled the sonic possibilities (already substantial) of my Mesa Boogie. I care!
