Double Overdrive Pedal (Jekyll) and distortion (Hyde). The OD is a copy of TO808 but goes much further by providing a gain and bass boost to keep the body sound when the pedal is engaged. The distortion is classic but not the side that most nasal distortion pedal in transistors. 2 modes: that is ultra sharp (too) sharp and blunt, which is soft and creamy but still very defined. Adjustable noise gate built in-house.
UTILIZATION
The settings are clear and the manual provides basic settings for each of the two pedals and combinations. These are good bases to study because the settings are extremely sensitive and quite interactive. So the opportunities are enormous and it passes some time initially to set sounds, or both pedals simultaneously. Individually, they are very easy to adjust, but overall it's just a bit warmer ...
SOUND QUALITY
The heart of the matter: it sounds, it's clear. The OD sounds Stevie Ray to death, it is all bluff ... The distortion is very dynamic and versatile switch with sharp / blunt. For me it is blunt in position, the position is sharp too aggressive for my personal taste. The mixture of the two sounds can compress the signal to death and give her a very versatile to play solo hard-rock/metal trend according to the settings with lots of gain, but also a beautiful detached notes making very fluid legato and the effects of game almost simple to make ... A really big sound quality. I stick to a little giant and now I record with this setup is excellent. Not too much volume, a large versatility, a sound that is clean no matter what happens because of the noise-gate ... Happiness without deafening the neighborhood ...
OVERALL OPINION
I really like this (these?) Pedal. For the price of a single distortion pedal a bit "high end" there are two pedals that have a "high end", and this is the most important.
