    UTILIZATION

    While I'm posting this notice is to provide shade Pliades view posts rave about the pedals. I will prciser conditions of use: test RALIS store, a Hughes & Kettner amp transistor 60 watts (SERIES Blue or something like a) that looked honnte Premire view, and through my SansAmp Tri-AC, all with a team in Lag RM200 EMG passive pickups rather neutral fcheuse that the tendency to enhance the quality and default the rest of the stuff ...

    The sound seemed to me, you know ... Cold. Norvgien, almost. To play the black-metal in v'l a godsend! But the rest ... Yet I have a little essay in the Global Warming bte by passing the SansAmp, all analog, nothing. At best we gained some momentum and low.

    The channel I mainly test the "Pulverizer" I found very useful ... for beginners wanting amliorer the sound of his Frontman 15watts or, strictly speaking, to the happy owner of a JCM 800 all-tube type. Transo a mid-range (about 300 new in the mag), the sound is cold, everything is numrique worthy of my old Digitech GNX-1. I quickly compare with the SansAmp, do anything, even if the latter is more orient blues, overdrive distortion limits obtained are warmer, more dynamic, are being scaled. The distortion of the Line 6 is, not skinny, because it's for the big big sound, but dsesprement cold.

    OVERALL OPINION

    For résumé is a numrique pedals worthy of its technology. It offers a large distortion, but still cold, and personal, I did not take the slap I expected from reading the previous ones opinion.

    It will be useful to beginners trs lass of distortion of the MG30DFX, probably also (but I can qu'mettre the conjecture) can pro Global Warming all in all a lamp.

    Are not yet able to test it, I direct plutt researchers to big sound from analog type of Metal Muff EHX (and not, as my dealer made me towards the MT-2 .. .)

    A big pedals very heavy and quite ugly.
    It is much more clumsy than a Boss, look over matter works, but not a fatal beauty.

    That's all numrique in: conversion, algos Line6, conversion.

    UTILIZATION

    - The configuration gnrale Is it easy?
    Yes and no, rponse terse typical of Line6 gear. It has something for nothing, and as there are no presets, most acorns of us turned away. The sound is MRIT, there are even more knobs than a Boss chorus. Yes, it's ironic!

    Yes and no, rponse terse typical of Line6 gear. It has something for nothing, and as there are no presets, most acorns of us turned away. The sound is MRIT, there are even more knobs than a Boss chorus. Yes, it's ironic!

    - The edition of sounds and effects is it easy?
    We have seen worse. We must read what is described on the front, turn the knobs and at the same time playing with the guitar. Again it's too complicated for a rank of the guitarist habitus be guides and bottle-fed. The FUDR to move a bit and try to understand. Frankly, the pedals are far from being complicated. Now it does not yield its secrets to just anyone: the sound has to be done and MRIT.

    -The manual is clear and sufficient?
    I do not think having seen one in the box ...

    SOUND QUALITY

    - Effects are they effective, suitable and adequate ralistes?
    Well, two things to say on this point:

    1 - The effects of distortion are not the simplest master. It submitted the influence of the guitar (type, stringed instruments and microphones) Game guitarist (farm, mdiator, etc.) and also dpend much of the amp. It pineux, because with the pedals in the chain noise was at least 3 complete legalization (guitar, pedal, amp). Depending on your amp, pedals that sound good or not.

    2 - It is a distortion numrique. Pleased that is, at Line6. I do not remember it seeks mulate an existing sound. For it is against type and it will take into account the limitations of technology. Namely: a grain trs trs emissions and right, tide, super-rigid.

    OVERALL OPINION

    The pedals on behalf evocative (hem, Uber Metal for those who have a memory of goldfish)
    is a monster. Too high, too heavy, too saturated, too much for small mtalleux budding.

    To be honest, I think it's one of the best in its class trs SPECIFICATIONS: disto for mtalleux. I'd think before in my Flextone3 both aim and I had a pretty good memory gard. Caution idiots friends, do not open your amp to try to get out ...

    The three modes (or three virtual pramplis) Metal / Insane / spraying give good flexibility To create the big sound. Submitted on 6 knobs are trs out their work:
    - Level, no need to explain what level are you?
    - Scoop, in relation to the Mid knob he digs the mdiums
    - Drive, saturation
    - Bass, do you think?
    - Mid, ditto
    - Treble, yes, also
    Add that a noise-gate with three prrglages (off, 1.2) and you will have the hands and under the foot (the uncomfortable position) a big box sound thrash-metal-death-brutal- neo-industrial-heavy doom-METAAAAAAAAAAAAAL. Pimply teens freaks Nickelback (ooh it's violent) will love and remember their scooter.

    It is clear that the pedals are very effective for what we ask him to do: fit, it's sharp and strong howling trs.

    Care should be taken to use in good conditions and thus the plug on something better than a Marshall MG15 or Cube. The pedals are made for big sound, and as everyone knows, the big sound is not soft 15watts in a 8-inch HP.

    You want your pedals gammin she screams? While HP's 12 "minimum prviens your neighbors.

    This is THE PDAL for teens "guitar-black-look-who-kills-with-the-EMG". Buy it, it is, it is not CHRE and you have all the same sound! Flock of sheep!
    H not, if you thought as a young mtalleux is a rebel, you are mistaken. It is a common distressing, which n'enlve nothing intrinsque the quality of the Line6 pedals.

    So what?
    Good stuff, cold, sharp for mtalleux who are loathe to get out of the ordinary. Rsultat guaranteed. ;)

    The Uber is sold in a nice black box. It is quite heavy and sturdy.

    UTILIZATION

    Very easy to use, especially in the manual there are basic settings that are standards.

    SOUND QUALITY

    I use a Jackson with EMG and a Gibson Custom.
    Thanks to the noise gate there is no breath and it really works, without ever reducing the sustain. The sound is clean and prcis. is inexplicable, the sound of this pedal is pro.

    If like me you want a Mesa Triple correct then this is the pedal for you (the sound Pulverizer with the setting of the manual).

    I saw!!
    On stage I need to bring me a tone of rack (Satu, noisegate, compressor, etc. ...) My JCM800 + Metal and the cradle is great.

    I tried almost all pedals and multi effects. Well for the metal I recommend the Metal ber.
    Of course my opinion is valid if the plug into the clean channel of any amp lamp.

    The report is EXCELLENT because qualitprix saturation and noisegate are exeptional.

    UTILIZATION

    Very simple configuration not need manual (the limit for the scoop if there is to know that zicos not!)
    not programmable, even if damage is rare in this type of format. It would have been practical yet because it has a very diverse range of distortion. the pots are sensitive and have an amplitude varying according to the chosen distortion (metal / Spray Applied / insane)

    SOUND QUALITY

    Used with EMG and Di Marzio Tone Zone, mesa f30
    the sound is good but very typical. There is a sound distortion remaining constant despite three gear used (I tested it on good and less good stuff)
    what I mean is that it is digital and despite a good accuracy, good sound, it does not really heart this pedal! It is the distortion "boats"
    the gate is of high quality pro
    7 for the same price as there are products may be less versatile but with a soul

    OVERALL OPINION

    Overall it's a pedal that makes a lot of things but do not touch me masses
    the quality / versatility / price / robustness is good about it, but for people looking for his lifetime's not too much. it's accurate, powerful, cool!, the harmonics are low. I do not compare to tube pedals vox ... (Which are often poor for metal, and terribly expensive: a better all-tube amp) but the other analog for the same price as the line 6 100-150 euros circuits have better quality, more transparent, leaving the up to the sound of the guitar and amp (mxr for example), "otimisant sound" and not "modulate the sound."
    This pedal is currently the weakest link in the chain for my config esp / mesa (I'm about to replace)
    As previously said in another post is a pedal with a very good as usual,
    This is a good substitute for the "real" good stuff!
    It is well made but I think it is only the gate is in the pro-level pedal (pedal is a good gate in fact! Lol)
    I put 7: It's already a good note but there are better for the same price! Just to try and find one that suits you it is not what is missing!
    So for beginners who do not really know what it's good This a research lab to learn a paufiner the taste for distortion with experience ... I do not have that choice would do that's what serves the Experience: evolution!

Your exact trs is good (playing hard I prfre classic mode "metal") a lot of sustain, only the bass is a little lgres. It is cold enough (forcing on the cube as well) but it is effective and workable trs.
    - Phase 2 amp lamp ValveKing 112: making the same connections, rsultat catastrophic! Its super loud, no more bass, etc ... I tried to plug it into the effects loop of the amp, and your exact silent a little better, I rcuprer low, but much less gain and sustain before ... The saturated channel 112 is doing much better instantly. In short, the uber metal farewell for me!

    OVERALL OPINION

    I RPET all costs but we must try this pedals with your amp, if not hello surprises (and not always good as in my case ...).
    I trs SATIF silent with my Roland Cube, for against, it unusable with the ValveKing silent.
    I bought a Vox rcemment Satchurator, and no problem, plugs into the clean channel it gives me a good saturation trs prcise more "clear" that the channel saturated the amp.
    In short, I do not know if this problem on other amp lamps, but be sure your type of amp before you buy!

    The pedal is not editable via PC, but like any self-respecting line 6 pedal, you can take modules for very little.

    SOUND QUALITY

    So there ... slap to my first use. The sound is purely enormous. Wide range of sound thanks to selector 3 position of the pedal.

    The noisegate, do not talk about a real bomb: she eats no attack, nor the sound of the guitar, it is simply extremely effective (2 positions: reduction and interruption).

    Note: knob mediums is relatively difficult to resolve and is directly linked to the Scoop knob)

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for almost a year and I'm still happy. She will follow me for a long time ^ ^

    I use a Fender Showmaster limited edition and a Schecter C-1 Classic deep sea green. In short, I am super happy with this toy;)

    Really excellent value for money (thank you Line 6, p)

    Finally here it is, for those looking for the grain it offers, it is excellent, although typed.

    We can supply it together (like a multi-output power supply for all pedals board), it must have its power supply just for her.
    In return, from the time the polarity is correct or it accepts anything, no need for stabilization so like all high-gain pedals I had.

    You can use a stereo dock, it works without other cool line6.
    Important: Although not true bypass, the codec is not active in bypass mode, so everything is ok, unlike other digital pedals.


    UTILIZATION

    No, it's not obvious, especially in the mediums that are really very difficult to adjust.
    It seems that the volume pot to scoop neutral 9-10hrs, boosts below, and digs into it. It's hard to find what works.
    Noise gate two positions, reduction and capacity (for chopping rhythm mutated).

    More progressive than the volume or Crunchtone Distorto, I also.

    Progressive gain also, no need to mount the masses to be worn by the sound.

    SOUND QUALITY

    The difference in quality between the user and pulverized the other two is such that I only use him.
    This method does not clone a distortion pedal but a mesa amp (model not for fags).

    The equalization is such that everything is possible, but I use it not for rhythmic egg (even though it is sometimes difficult to stop to make so the sound is enjoyable) but for the solo.
    So the gain and the scoop to 10hrs, I keep the media and the saturation is quite natural. The grain is superb, very amp is warm and clear, well picked and sustain very natural.
    The highs are somewhat unique, because the equalizer does not alter the character really sound in that register, hard to describe but there are still a lot actually.

    Background noise absolute nothingness, like his sisters, what is good! Z'entendez, Msieu Fender? (No, too many parasites Zont)

    OVERALL OPINION

    Very good pedal, useful. Very different from his two sisters, complementary.

    Bypass the sound is a bit less open than right in the amp but at home only. At a local cable 3m between guitar and pedal plus a 6m between the pedal and amp sounds better with bypass than right in the amp with cable 9m.

    Logic, but must know, the advertising we rehash a bit too much with their fucking true bypass all the sauces!
    I invite skeptics to visit the site of SansAmp, tech21nyc.com, or the boss clearly explains this phenomenon of bypassing.

    Returning to her, it's all good. I was damage control solid metal, well it's not obvious level results, and for the price I will not mention ...

    This mode is quite unique pulverized, it's not a pedal but an amp, which differentiates it from other distos market.
    Essentially, the uber metal is more physical, more real, more beefy. Very well done, Msieu line6! What

The result sounds very nice (I use the metal mode since I usually play classic hard rock) with a long sustain. Only the low-end is a bit too light. The tone is rather cold (it also due to the Cube) but easily usable.
    - I then bought a Valveking 112 tube amp: the result is disastrous!! Very shrilling sound, almost no low frequencies, etc. I tried to connect it into the FX loop of the amp: the sound was a bit better with more lows but less gain and less sustain... Surprisingly, the lead channel of the 112 gives better results. So, I don't use the Uper Metal!!


    OVERALL OPINION

    Try this stomp box with your amp because you could get bad surprises.
    I was very satisfied with my Roland Cube, but the pedal is useless with the Valveking.
    I bought a Vox Satchurator later and had no problems. I connect it to the clean channel and I get a good distortion sound.
    I don't know if you would experience the same problem with other tube amps: just try it out with your own amp before buying it.
