Published on 09/05/11 at 07:16Analog Distortion, the connectors are standard:
- 6.35 2 Jack: IN and OUT
- A standard 9V power jack.
No editing possible via PC ...
This is just a distortion pedal not a dashboard A320 ....
Construction hyper solid cast steel casing.
UTILIZATION
I believe in simplicity MXR pedals are recognized as models of their kind.
3 knobs: Distortion 1 (rate-distortion of the signal), 1 Tone (Tone), an output that adjusts the output level to the amp.
The manual is very light though not at fault either. It even offers typical settings for the pedal.
Editing is very simple, parameter settings are the three main distortion for a beginner to regain its small ....
SOUND QUALITY
The distortion is effective, its sound is moving rather Blues, Rock and may extend, with some extreme settings, the Hard Rock sound 80 but not more ....
The sounds are quite warm and pleasant looks just like a distortion amp.
No breath.
I use it mainly with a Fender Stratocaster Japan 54 with micro Di Marzio and ST Vintage Gibson Les Paul Custom plugged into a Fender Bassman 100 or a Vox AC 30 C2.
But I prefer between the Start and vox top boost mode with a gain amplifier to less than half tones and vox to 12H for the settings of the MXR: distortion in 2H, and 11H to Tone Output between 2 and 3H, it is true that in this configuration also serves as the distortion boost (big difference in volume between disto committed or not) but also where it is best expressed and gives a great presence in solo and rhythm heavy (smothered in the right hand is a killer ...)
If you are looking for crunch, you'll find, but I think that this is not his favorite .... why are targeting instead of OD MXR GT which is doing much better in this area.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for a year, and I've tried more than one but I find that the distortion comes in or the sound of solos with a need to boost the signal of excellence.
Conclusion: as much effect in this price range do not expect to buy a Pandora's box where you got both light crunch that distos devastating modern rock, but an efficient pedal silmple of use after taming, will give you satisfaction.
The Value for money is very good (OCCAZ unbeatable), and this choice I would do without hesitation
