overdrive / Disto, non-editable format pedal, analog input and output device. Point bar

UTILIZATION

The manual is very explicit and even offers settings such qques quite effective. Controls are 4 in number 3 of which are "dual function".
Only the Switching Overdrive / Disto is basic. The others are not always practical double knobs in the sense that one turn without moving the other is more difficult than turning a Dunlopillo without waking his neighbor. Sometimes you put the two hands, which is not very practical situations. However, the settings are fine and progressive.

SOUND QUALITY

Personally I totally fell for this virtual emulation JCM2000. By playing with a lespaul APH1B equipped with Seymour, he pushed me a top hat on the skull and a fag in mouth. This is stunning (yet to order my fingers).
The grain is very close to the lamp, bold and hairline. Corrections severe / acute are also progressive and also refines the sound with a button outline (as on the brand and amps with the same effects on the "envelope").
Gains and volume are dissociated, which for me makes me putting myself in Drive, with a relatively low gain and high volume boost a strat clean sound to attack the "Fonk Family".
Caution, however, by doing that, we win the breath ... Do not care, I have Lace Sensor.

OVERALL OPINION

6 months of use not regular. Often I play on PC power and multi headphone. It is the pedalboard of honor, however.
Models I've tried tons and still has quintals, but it is more hairy (not the most extreme, the hairier, the allusion to Slash see above).
Price / quality ratio interresting, compatible with std Boss PSU, battery cover and fairly accessible throughout greedy little elsewhere.
This one, I do not sell it!
