Disto analog mode 3:
_crunch
_high gain
_boost 20db

5 knobs: - Boost - level - tone - high gain - crunch-

all in a solid case, I like the switches because there are not too long.

UTILIZATION

Very easy to use, the settings are basic and very effective, just what is what!
small flat on the fact that there have no marking on the knobs and can be quite annoying to find its config.
switches to "select" and "drive" Separate allow that when you clean reviend in the mode of distortion remains the same and there did not need to reselect when it returns to full.
the boost is when he has ... -Aïeuhh hurts his ears-it ... very effective, I never exceed the setting is more than 9 hours because it sends severe! ideal to hear his little solo or wake up the sound a bit clearer.

SOUND QUALITY

Wouahouuu, she pleased this little box,
The crunch is nice but slams abuse on the set because otherwise it's more of bah crunch.
the high gain tears, I find it hotter than the crunch but did not shine.

the thing that made me alluciner's responsiveness to attack the strings, its relatively high gain crunch we go from almost clean crunch at most, but with a great amount of the gain gradually.
of even playing on the volume or tone of the guitar, it reacts nickel.

if it is on low it's not really very subtle and muted overdrive (although by fiddling a bit)

Another small point against by the knob "tone" is a zero with me! thoroughly is inaudible, but at least it has the advantage of not completely ettoufer sound as it often happens on distos (but the reverse is much background screaming tros)

OVERALL OPINION

I buy OCCAZ 'here on AF and I do not regret it.
I also have a ToneLab SE, but I wanted a pure distortion of very good quality live rock in a clean of my mesa, well, I found!
I use it with my telecaster mounted with Duncan, his slap!! brightness of the bridge pickup and smooth the neck pickup all in one pedal super transparent decoife to each note, thank you sir carl martin. ^ ^
