mathieufrancis « Effective and cheap! »
Published on 10/17/12 at 00:55A volume knob with a switch, a battery just to power the LED, otherwise it's full liability.
Produces ultra simple, so convenient and cheap.
UTILIZATION
I use in two situations:
- Turn the preamp distortion in my clean / crunch, a kind of second channel (or rather a second gain).
- In the effects loop of my head lamps. It's been a little office attenuator, in reality, it is here that a second "master" series. There are more ideal for volume easily play softly while pushing the preamp tubes (but not the amp, why we must invest in an attenuator)
Two uses for something stupid € 25, I say 10/10!
SOUND QUALITY
I personally love the clean / crunch obtained with the signal pad. Of course it was not really a second channel, against the transitions are perfect, the sound is really in the same spirit, the same color and I love the natural balance of the output volume between the two:
- From clean to distortion: you really feel you loose the cavalry
- From distortion to clean: restore calm without losing its place in the mix
Not need to adjust the millimeter volume knobs for both channels, where the balance is automatic!
Good must not expect to get out of the fender cleans starting with a Hi-Gain channel but I like this natural look! (Not all in the mind modeling with a fender clean, the crunch of a vox distortion and a mesa)
Verdict 7/10, because I love it, but it does not meet all expectations.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it everywhere and all the time is very small, very practical and sounds.
For the price, this is definitely something to put in your toolbox!
Value for money: 10/10
Not suit everyone, but overall it's really good!
