Versatile unit
Jun 8th 2023There is a lot of tones you can get with this unit... A lot! You got 3 types of distortion, and can run them solo or in any combination... The sound is then also influenced by the EQ pre button, which puts the EQ before the distortion, and also the SUM button which has a calming and slight cleaning up effect. Useful if you have it a bit too much and SUM just tames it a bit. Also there is a mix control and HP/LP filters. Sound quality is great and in use it is a lot of fun to use. It does interact in unexpected ways sometimes so take a minute to learn it. I mostly use it on breakbeats, bass and synths. It can work on anything really though, but of course some sounds not ideal to be distorted lots. You can add a bit of thickness to things without getting audible distortion, good to get more perceived loudness. All in all I would not hesitate to recommend this unit. It has been well thought out and the filters and EQ sound great as well as the 3 distortions.
