I am a follower of the Zvex pedals. I am also aware that the sound they offer can not be got at all: the Octane 3, the machine, the Wah Probe, Probe and Tremolo other Fuzz Probe is not really versatile and provide opportunities hard use.
What then of the pedals of "large" distortion? Curiosities or usable in everyday life?
- Manufactures hand-painted by hand in the United States Zvex
- Fully analog
- I / O device
- Volume, gain, noise gate and legalization 3 bands
- Switch on / off for the distortion and the noise gate
- 9V battery powered, consuming low trs, usually in Zvex, or by sector (increasingly common in Zvex)
The quality of construction and finishing can be put into default, as usual with Zvex. Simply superb. And then there's the little box sr good acronym Zvex and his little red cloth coating enclosing the pedals and using ds fantasy. Ms. habitu the hair is still a small effect.
UTILIZATION
The use is very simple. The manual gives some explanations but also demonstrated the humor of Zachary Vex dcidment who does nothing like the others.
Each trs is potentiomtre sensitive trs trs prcis and effective. The CONTRL gain "cracks" when it is turned, but not panic, it's normal!
Nothing wrong in that regard, it is simple and well thought out.
SOUND QUALITY
In gnral this point you would expect the Zvex pedals to turn.
Premire surprise: the sound of pedals Manir "conventional". There's no weird sounds, no buzz, squeeze, and other strangeness of grsillement. This is a traditional distortion pedals.
It is better to beginners with the gain at a minimum: the pedals do not lie, it's really made for mtal and nothing else. SETTING THE Ds first gain you end up with sounds of dj mtal heavy. The reserve of available gain is consquente.
Sounds obtained are closer to the grain of a large amp lamps than those of analog transistors pedals: pedals that sounds like a Marshall amp lamps. Gain commitment of heavy bass, treble perants. The sound is good in all Dfine circontances. One has the impression of playing a high gain stack lights of 100W!
The 3-band legalization is effective and can sculpt the sound as we DSIR: dig in for the heavy mdiums mtal the old well or with mdiums Submitted for mtal modern and sharp palm mute.
The pedals also unflinchingly supports the 7-string tuning and drop D or C: the sound remains clear, dynamic, prcis.
Although sr, she blows: it is a high gain pedals! O On the noise gate Intgr. This is an especially formidable efficiency indpendant of distortion. It is vritablement paramtr for large distortions and blowing palm mute quick succession: the times of opening and closing are short trs.
OVERALL OPINION
Zvex his best. The PDAL is a must for the metal. It distributes heavy distortion prcise. The legalization is sensitive and the noise gate indpendant of formidable efficiency. And for once, no weird sounds horizon.
As usual painting made by hand is superb and the original packaging trs.
on the other hand, it can not do anything else: no flexibility, no same type of Hard Rock AC / DC. On the other ct my Dean from Hell with his Bill Lawrence L-500 and my ESP KH-3 with EMG-81 are not comfortable trs outside distos massive.
Is the price ... but it is still possible to turn to the version Vexter most "democracies".
