«  THE pedal distortion / overdrive »

blabla!

has reviews it seems a fan of ocd Overtone has decided to spam the site to convert to his religion down the blackstar. it is time to have a normal review.

for short, is a pedal overdrive / distortion a lamp 12AX7 I think.

6 knobs, 2 channel, a clean / OD button ... heuuu ... it's already not bad? and ben when y'en more y'en yet. 2 knobs are multi, base running and the upper is independent. ca therefore has 11 buttons grind.

gain1/gain 2
clean button / OD
Bass / middle / treble
ISF
Level1 / 2

emulated output input.pour stick on the mixing desk.

UTILIZATION

No, not when we get information simple.mais a minimum, that a little itchy and we understand what it means OD, distortion, bass / treble / medium ca is now playing with.

the ISF knob is unreleased. it acts as a kind of its drive. in blackstar, they explain that it feels left fender, marshall and right.

ca and feels the output is not to look pretty. a dirty side, draft, and another while medium distorted. frankly, between ca has no interest, the variation is small, inconvenue following his guitar leaning.

SOUND QUALITY

ahh effects.

METAL all it is, it is extremely versatile. she can breathe a slight crunch as loud distortion, which would ruin any speaker. METAL concept is misleading, it is far from being confined to this genre, it just barely electrify a subtle clean to scream as the power chord palm mute dear to metalheads. Simply turn the knobs ...

it is the lamp connected to a fender champion with either an Epiphone or a Gibson Les Paul.

OVERALL OPINION

3 months that I have fun with.

I tried a big muff> too dirty, not versatile.
a badass MXR distortion> blah, it's an overdrive than anything else.
a boss OD2> too common.

I like:

the sensation of heat from the lamp.
full settings.
the ISF knob which characterizes the sound.
the DI output.
Its ability to trituration.

I do not like:

Its power supply 22 V con. any pedalboard power supply only supports ca.
It heats donf.
Size obese on the PB.
Its output level. Ca moderate to 7/10, and after ca screams. not enough delay.

nine is a sacred investment! OCCAZ ca becomes more affordable and better justified.

if I had the choice again?? I would take a non O. .. I kidding. I am fully satisfied with this choice. Not being metalheads I use anyway for its subtle adjustments crunch / OD, which gives the impression of even more discount lamps on the amps available, I do not spend.
