The Rat has 3 rglages: a "distortion" that controls the saturation level, a "Filter" which plays on the tonality of a sound loaded tweeter in a bass heavy sound and round. And finally a "volume" we will not present. Beyond a, an input and an output and a trap (viiiiss GRRRR) for the battery.
The first point ngatif: a power supply in mini jack, which requires the buyer to put a hold on its garland (1.50 euros for one cot)
PDAL TRS good quality, solid compact but heavy. It inspires the reliability and we quickly takes the bully without hsiter.

UTILIZATION

Trs rgler simple, does not need the pedals not Bac + 5 to be used without problem.
But beware: the proximity of knobs and footswitch must be taken into account, a kick imprcis dreglant pedals easily. Big feet, go your way .... The trouble is that there is no nuance: the knob rglant the level of distortion is not nothing impossible to have a crunch without losing all ...... It's really prjudiciable potato.

SOUND QUALITY

Well, the fuzz-distortion produced by The Rat is simply a radical and uncompromising. It's MEGA-Bourrin, the Big Muff is ridiculed by comparison. The effect is self-mm TRS good quality. We go (via rglage filter) a sound of screaming Shellac's a big heavy load low, ideal for the metal. Indiffrement uses a guitar or bass, the rendering is excellent in both cases. Caution: Users Start type guitar might not find it, a big double as significantly more appropriate.
Ds that connects a group, with bass, pedals shows its limits, Larsen galore, even if the sound is worthy of an airbus in flight .... Huge. The problem does not occur with a guitar, but you better have a hell of output level.
The trouble is that there is no nuance: the knob rglant the level of distortion is not nothing impossible to have a crunch without losing the whole potato is ...... prjudiciable really.

But the sound quality is at the appointment, it is on.

OVERALL OPINION

In conclusion, the rat is the fuzz-distortion is needed in a set of pedals, but effectively assist a distortion is versatile because bte trs is not versatile, and not to a book of his lumberjack ......

I do not would do the same choice today, because my ambition to use it with a bass in a group of post-rock. It works well in terms of sound, but the feedback too me Submitted ESG. Better to look down version complte more. But coupled with my guitar, it gives me good feeling trs, relays and much bang my Seymour.
