The distortion pedals of idalie: 3 pots of rglages trs effective interlock switch and 2, for a start up (tonant right?), And the other one of espce deuxime Channel ("more"), I will return. Trs is intuitive and we do not take the head rgler the beast, the goal: to play fast with a good sound!
Well there is the small button "pad" for the Tone prserver when using a wah wah pedals, but I do not have not tried!
Note that this PDAL exudes quality manufacturing, packaging the pots

UTILIZATION

The use is very simple, and it is a rgal of discovering the potential of the machine because the sound is really used on the entire curve of the gain knob. In the SETTING THE against the Tone and less convincing, however all opinions can be found on this point at 12:00 del sound and perch too high in the treble.
Use of swith MORE really brings more because its function varies depending on the amount of gain that is used. If winning is the bottom, switching the switch MORE will provide little more gain and sustain. For cons, the win over lightweight (below 15.00), switching the switch will actually much MORE gain.
So either you end up with two sounds, one was a boost for solos for example.

SOUND QUALITY

I tried the pedals in the store with my guitar (Wolfgang US) on a fender amp lamps (a blues deluxe I think), with 2 other pedals: a Blackstar HT-dist and Maxon D & S I wanted to dpart a blackstar because I only see boxes for these pedals. Well it is me most of. So beware, if I have a peavey wolfgang is not playing the blues (but) I wanted potato and gain for my ValveKing 112. So the sound of the silent blackstar certainly trs round, but I found that the silent bunch compared to the other 2 and it lacked a clear gain. The maxon is approaching a bit of satch but with less gain and you have to push the Tone for a good sound (unlike the satch this level), it offers even less of the possible (yet once more the switch MORE). In short, APRS have cracks on the vox, I quickly tried on my ValveKing in clear channel, and that happiness. While an uber metal on this amp is useless (see my opinion on the uber metal), the no pb. Whether for or rhythmic solos, the sound is clear and full time. I confirm the other view, this is trs PDAL amliore music and the sound without making it too typical or caricature. You can have a good crunch to sustain a rhythmic and hell for the solos.
Note that this is trs PDAL silent possde believe that a small noise-gate Intgr!

OVERALL OPINION

I possde the pedals for 2 weeks and I am perfectly satisfied. It fits well with my hardware trs (and what I play: Van Halen, Extreme, Ugly Kid Joe, in short all the hard 80/90) and I love his music and his switch MORE. I think she must be sensitive enough the quality of hardware used because it does not transform compltement your sound. She adds gain and sustain and that's exactly what I asked.
So no question of having the sound of the pedals satriani (and personally the better), or turn a combo stack two bodies, but it makes you want to play a good solo and with the pedals and you find smile!
My only regret and not being able to try to compare the vox bulldog ... For next time! Like all purchases prvoyez your guitar and your amp if possible to try it.

August 18, 2009 EDIT: Finally nothing beats a good amp based ... I just change my ValveKing 112 for Blackstar HT5 loudspeaker with a 112 Blackheart ... and although I no longer need the pedals!
I tried it on the clean channel of my new amp, no pb for the lead always impeccable, but for the rhythmic sound, picture is not saturated sound of the amp is much better! Many more basseset potato! Saturated sound of the amp sounds more "natural", more raw, in short, a good amp sound lights What! The pedals that j'encensais qq months ago has not become zero as is even the best of distortion pedals I've ever tried just found maisj'ai a sound that suits me better, more versatile and more "real".
