As its name suggests, this is a distortion pedal metal type, the look is nice, you know what you are dealing and the machine is particularly strong.
An input, output, and four potentiometer via battery or AC power supply, classic ...

UTILIZATION

The information on the pots are a bit surprising (rip, guts, bread and scream), after handling it Consat they can modify respectively the volume, bass, mids and treble like most distortion pedals.

SOUND QUALITY

The look and announces the name the color, do not expect the finesse with this pedal, the distos it generates are actually very aggressive (too?), A noise gate is needed to fight against the breath very intrusive.
The setting is less obvious than it seems, especially the treble is quite unpleasant and are quick to transform sound into a sizzling infamous.
I tried various settings with my Cort X2 15W marshall amp and without getting something usable, in absolute terms it is possible to play with the metal but it is clearly not the nirvana ... more than many pedals similar and much more interesting have appeared since.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for two years but I finally put it aside in favor of a Jekyll and Hyde from Visual Sound.
The sound of the Death Metal FX is certainly very far but it should be able to master it, really dirty and too rough for my taste, I really recommend.
