Dca lp « The hard rock 80 ' »
Published on 03/25/14 at 07:47Analog pedal, transistor with three knobs:
- Tone
- Level
- Gain
And a switch for increasing the gain and harmonics.
An inlet, an outlet and a 9v input. Basic and effective.
UTILIZATION
Configure the pedal is childish, turn, listen and find the desired sound.
The manual offers some succinct settings as a basis for the less experienced of us.
SOUND QUALITY
Talk about the effect of this pedal:
This pedal is suitable for sounds like classic rock, blues and hard rock 80/90.
Metal aficionados, go your way!
Gain without the boost you will get to feel the sounds in the style of AC / DC, if your guitar is equipped with humbuckers. Reducing the gain, we are left with a fairly creamy overdrive to make blues, pop and rock.
By engaging the boost, the gain increases and harmonics whistled out without penalty, as long as your mics have a level of output result.
The sounds of this pedal are rich, feel good and analog sound pretty good and natural if your amp (preferably all lamps) accepts pedals well.
This pedal slightly compresses the sound, but not as a blackstar ht dual example. We therefore appreciate the rendering quite airy and finally relatively conventional happening everywhere, reminding us of sounds repeatedly heard in rock albums, hard rock light.
Finally, I will focus on the reactivity of this pedal in game volume knob and the guitar / mic plugged in, which will be transcribed with some transparency.
OVERALL OPINION
I use this pedal with 3 different guitars:
- Telecaster (vintage microphones tex mex):
Very smoothly, good blues to heavy rock, boost engaged.
- Gretsch (solid body, mini humbuckers DeArmond)
Rock sounds more assertive, able to tickle sounds to Gun's N'Roses
Gibson Les Paul (EMG 57/66)
Here I have a concern. The pedal does not seem to accept the high output of these pickups.
Low puke and it greatly displeases me, the sound is rough.
Before, my Les Paul was emg 81/85 and it was fine, but the 57 is more loaded than the low 81 and the pedal does not like .. Too bad, because with 81 boost the pedal engaged we were squarely in the sounds Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, Slayer old ..
Big disappointment so ..
Conclusion: Mxr try this with your guitar imperative not to have surprises! That said, it is a guarantee of quality, as a pedal that reacts so strongly to the type of microphone and guitar plugged above is a transparent pedal with a real personality, unlike my Blackstar HT Dist, which she accepts any type of guitar, but still sounds like almost ..
But I still like my ht Dist! It's just different ..
