    A magnificent pedal ...

    MXR DD11 Dime DistortionPublished on 02/07/14 at 18:56
    (This content has been automatically translated from French)
    5 knobs: Global Volume, Bass, Middle, Treble and Gain
    1 knob boost.
    1 input and 1 output (like any basic pedal ^ ^)

    Military decoration is very friendly and the pedal is not too bulky (I get to squeeze in my guitar case when I go to a jam among friends).

    Small silicone pads are very useful to prevent slipping (because, yes, there are tiles in my room, and you must admit that it is not very convenient to use if she fled to each Once you place the feet on.).

    Mains.

    UTILIZATION

    Using this pedal can not be easier. Adjustments are made intuitively, but even if the manual does not help you much because very few detailed, the best thing is to plug his guitar over and quickly explore the sounds it offers, because you will fall almost instantly on any anything you like.

    Only small "minus":
    The activation-Boost is a small button located very close to the overall volume knob, so that at least one player worthy of a tap with professional precision intensive training, you can difficult to activate the boost for a solo without leaning to activate the finger (that said, if you do not wear huge Dc Martens slippers or plaid grandpa is feasible ...).

    -If you put all the knobs at the bottom, you'll easily a feedback in your speakers, you just drop one or more knob to do the feedback stops. But this does not affect my judgment, this is a very good pedal and anyway, I think you rarely use with the knobs bottom, the sound is not very attractive (in my opinion, in all cases).

    See for yourself after ...

    SOUND QUALITY

    This pedal offers a wide range of sounds ranging from light bluesy distortion by putting the gain at minimum (yes, ...) to the legendary Dimebag Darrell sharp saturation, through the characteristic sounds of Angus Young, Santana, Jimi Hendrix, faithfully imitating the Mesa Boogie James Hetfield or the filthy distortion of Kurt Cobain. It is to me the most versatile pedal metalheads, and may even be suitable for a "simple" way Led Zeppelin rocker or a faithful admirer of hairy Brutal Death Thrash Black Metal Apocalyptico-Destroy (do not ask me if it exists ...).

    I use almost constantly "Boost" function for a sharp and incisive sound, the rest of the time or she is not engaged, it is to imitate the sound of the first recordings filthy Metallica ...

    I play an Ibanez S540FM and I use a Peavey Envoy 110 from 1989 that I should also replace Finally, if my savings allow me ... ° - °

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for over a year and yet I still have not explored all the possibilities of this pedal. This is one of my first pedals, and my experience is not so great as that, but in hindsight, this is the one I would have chosen. Ditto if I were asked to use only one distortion pedal.

    Quality / price perfect, affordable, a very interesting choice for a beginner, a pedal that deserves a place of honor in the rack fervent practitioners of metal ... I even like the color!

    OVERALL OPINION

    In short: a pedal very good quality (materials and sound reproduction).
    Perfect for sounds ranging from "crunchy" to "destructive" through "bite" and "hot"
    A wild machine easily from the extreme (it's amazing what the bass and gain knobs are expressive), but that is little reason at will.
    I've had five years and I do not feel plagiarism Pantera, and I do it again this purchase without hesitation.

    MXR DD-11 Dime Distortion Preamp Pedal

    MXR DD11 Dime DistortionPublished on 11/28/03 at 15:00
    I actually wanted this unit initially to use at home for practice while my big rig (HALFSTACK ETC.)sat at my rehearsal space. I seen the ads in the guitar related magazines before it even came out for purchase and the main reason why I wanted this was for two reasons,Dimebag Darrell and MXR. I've tried many distortion/overdrive pedals in the past and I could never obtain the sound I was after. That lead me to amp distortion instead of the stompbox theory I had initially. I definetly liked the sound of Randall's preamp distortion over everybody else's version and I definetly liked Dimebag's sound in Pantera.

I've tried many distortion/overdrive pedals in the past and I could never obtain the sound I was after. That lead me to amp distortion instead of the stompbox theory I had initially. I definetly liked the sound of Randall's preamp distortion over everybody else's version and I definetly liked Dimebag's sound in Pantera. My main rig consists of 2 RG100es heads through 2 four by twelve cabs with a Furman parametric eq(pq4) in the effects loop.

    I like the fact that this pedal is exactly what I expected. It is Dime's tone from the ground up. With the scoop button disengaged it sounds like my Randall without the pq4 in the loop and with it engaged it sounds just like my pq4 hooked up and set to my(or Dime's) desired setting. I also relly like the way the eq on this pedal interacts with the overall type of distortion it creates. It was like connecting the eq on my Randall head with the eq on my parametric. It has to be some type of shelving eq because I've never heard this kind of range in a pedal before. Only in higher priced amps and rack gear.

    The two things that I wasn't really fond of were the option of having only one way of powering the thing up(adapter)and that when the scoop switch is engaged the mid control is inactive. I don't own a power conditioner so every now and then I had to tweek my settings to compensate dirty power.As far as the mid control is concerened, it would've been nice too have that extra sound too play with when I'm in that scooped setting

    Overall construction was excellant. Built tough for the long haul!

    This is the best distortion stompbox money can buy alongside the MXR doubleshot distortion.

    SOUND QUALITY

    .... That's the "but"
    I used it with several guitars equipped with emg81 and others with the bill lawrence l500xl.
    Impossible to have its own specific and net digging this button boosts the mids and the rest is horrible.
    It really is filthy, I do not like.
    If you are looking for a "dime" is not it at all!
    It's already much better than at least metalzone (which bzzz bzzz bzz bzz)
    I did a little demo on youtube if you want to see what happens.

    For the price it is abused nine.
    But why not OCCAZ.
    I will not make this choice in the future and at that price, I may choose from a pedal amt.
    We like it or not .... and I do not like .... I prefer the good distos incisors and well-defined.

    Buzzy and over the top

    MXR DD11 Dime DistortionPublished on 11/22/11 at 17:52
    Dimebag has long since been known for having a very...unique kind of tone. It was generally a very heavily distorted tone with very little midrange. This is a pedal that was modeled after his tone, but I don't think Dimebag actually ever used this exact pedal. I could be wrong, however. The pedal has knobs for output, bass, middle, treble and gain. There is also a small push button that can switch the voicing of the pedal if you want something different.

    UTILIZATION

    This pedal is built fairly tough. I can't say I've tested this thing on tour, but it seems like it can withstand some strong abuse. Pretty much all MXR pedals are built tough as nails, and I don't doubt this one …

    UTILIZATION

    This pedal is built fairly tough. I can't say I've tested this thing on tour, but it seems like it can withstand some strong abuse. Pretty much all MXR pedals are built tough as nails, and I don't doubt this one for a second. The small switch might wear a bit, and the actual switch on the pedal might go flaky, but this is after probably decades of hard usage. The pedal is fairly easy to set up and go, but there are some example settings in the manual. In fact, they even have lots of videos about this pedal on YouTube if you want to check them out. The manual itself describes everything in clear detail, so there should be no real confusion as to what everything does.

    SOUND QUALITY

    The sound is where I'm really iffy on this pedal. For one, it has lots of gain. I'm not really a big fan of getting all my gain sounds from pedals as I find them to be a bit too harsh and not really natural sounding. It sounds like a "pedal," as cliché as that sounds. The range on the tone stack is pretty nice, and I was able to get some different sounds out of it, but I was never able to dial in a nice, subtle distortion with this thing. Then again, I'm pretty sure this was meant to be a balls-out distortion pedal and not an overdrive like I was attempting to use it as.

    OVERALL OPINION

    If you need lots of gain in a pedal, this might be what you're looking for. However, I can't help but think that, with today's amps, you really shouldn't need to get a lot of gain from a pedal. I was never a fan of running a completely clean amp and using distortion pedals for gain, but some people can pull it off. This thing just wasn't for me, but I'm sure there are people out there who will adore this thing. I just wish companies would stop exploiting Dimebag's name in an attempt for marketing more gear.

    Disto metal ... Buy new 175 euros.

    UTILIZATION

    Of distortion pedals not taking mouth:
    - Volume
    - Low, mid, treble
    - Gain
    + A small button that acts on the mids (the white button that you see on the left of the pedals). I think a cut mdiums, the sound is more lightweight, I think it makes a more versatile pedal with CHAC sounds more blues / rock. So if you type in a directory more conventional, the pedal may help you ... A test!

    Rglages quite effective.

    Metal Case, I think it will withstand the hottest concerts.

    Note that using white paint glows in the dark, which can be very useful scne when the room is plunged into darkness. Good thinking.

    I play an Ibanez RG with DiMarzio 550X + micro acute.
    The sound is sharp with a tight grain.
    Drool unless the Boss Metal Zone, Dfine his best, and I find less crillard.

    OVERALL OPINION

    If you are fans of Pantera (Rhahhh, Great Southern Trendkill the ... 99% of the groups will never get out of masterpieces such as a. .. sigh ... end of the parenthse), and want a large distortion couillue well, you know what you have done.
    I recommend it highly enough.
    I do not think will be a qq of this purchase, even if empty, it is always ncessaire to try before you buy.
    More expensive than other pedals for major distos, but the diffrence in price is justified I think.
    Report qualitprix correct.

    The DD-11 Dime is really not making head: a master, a gain, a 3-band equalizer standard, plus a small transfer button, which allows to refine the sound by boosting or calming frquences General for the equalizer: IDAL to play softer stuff, or conversely, to pter artificial harmonics like Dime did.
    The equalizer offers a range of its relatively open.

    UTILIZATION

    There is no simpler than the pedals: reshaping the sound is a breeze, as the equalizer fairly sensitive to change, and the button with another scoop pedals depending on the size choice.

    SOUND QUALITY

    Nothing that I heard in terms of distortion not impressed me as much as the MXR DD-11. I use a Marshall TSL 100 Watt and Jackson SLSMG, your exact is fantastic: a superb handling, a clear and rough, but at the same time really smooth: its a real pro. By boosting the gain, the lows and highs, and turning on the Scoop, the sound is crying so powerful and it is pest.

    The silence, the sound is not the gnognotte ...

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had a few months, and there's not mean, that's my new favorite. The DD-11 is a real killing sound and best sound distortion with which he t given me to play, and those APRS many tests.

    If you need a distortion from pedals to stuff a little about or have a rhythmic sound of slamming solo is the pedals for you. Not another. Go, stop zyeuter other brands, it is the DD-11 MXR Dime you. No, but.

    I love everything in this PDAL
    I tried a lot of distortion with a line 6 uber metal, the metal muff (which made me quite hsiter in my purchase), several digitech, ... But the metalzone Mxr is the best!
    Currently the price is lowered which is surprising because of the death of Dime, 130 for pedals of this size is gnial

    While techniques for dtaisl not bother to put a layer everyone know how damn PDAL of a disto. Sule precision important: it only works on transformer (which comes with).

    Overall there are a lot of possibilities of rglage, I did a test that day (and not an amp, only via multi-effects with amp simulator -> Boss GX-700). Casing solid transformer provided this level ca MRIT a note at any point.

    UTILIZATION

    I rpterai not classic manual and all that.

    At the level of precision by some configuration against:

    The scoop is typ trs trs and effective (and unlike what I read below for me it is the contrary tapper in a more brutal!) Is a notch (Notch band) in mdium compltement that breaks the band frequency drives which is pretty CHARACTERISTICS sound metal. For the coup against the effectiveness of knob mdium becomes almost non-existent, it is a point to know.

    Similarly when one moves from the position scoop ON OFF may have surprised niveua sacred sound (and risk to go with a big buzz or feedback "internal"). So before removing it is better to lower the overall volume of knob or down a little four that would have t pushed too far.
    -> I also read that that was not the feedback, I'm not so sure because I had mchant phnomne PDAL the internal feedback (ie without amplifier) ​​with some rglages (notte with knob of serious gnre in some cases an acute frquence of reasonable varies with the gain, the demerit is interesting but this can be g ing). So with an amp back I bet it's not all!
    Voil otherwise it was not too hard rgler the knob go well relatiement filters are effective and we have a good reserve volume (I speak not of the gain which ensures that we can have a big diff ence in level between the sound without pedals and with his (useful for switching between a rhythmic game play solo).
    So on this point a few things wrong but overall not bad at all.

    SOUND QUALITY

    So I test as I said with a GX-700 (multi-effect boss with amp simulator, but not modlisation, but personally I do not like a simultaneous sounds too modlisation ca Synthetic my taste), the guitar is a MODEL but tlcaster trs unusual sounds more like a Lespaul but ... fender version lol, warm sound with a lot of serious, not at all like a vintage tl normal. Amlpi output stereo and headphones. I test quickly to the store to see the diffrence with the configuration mentioned earlier. most of the time which sounds a lot on my amp is catastrophic GX-700. When it rings on my GX is that it kills a good amp.
    While the sound ... In the beginners I n'tais not convinced by the scoop trs and really test without. Landemaine and I did not. The fact is that this distortion is versatile enough despite what one might think. It will not rev adapted to the blues or jazz (normal, whatever looking around even when there is a way). The gain is low volume a little too dirty for the blues, but playing on the knob scratched with one little way out. Ractive It is in both cases and that's important trs, ca knob mean that the Gain is not just for show. Between noon and 5:00 there is a diffrence tural gain, below on the other hand is less obvious. As for the nag cons I still think it lacks a bit of headroom I wish I could grow another 2 3 notches further.

    The (lightweight) lack of gain can be compensated by the Scoop (but it does not replace when same). I test: almost total rprtoire Black Sabbath (Ozzy Dio) and that's what makes me the most hsiter because it fits well the overall cr neau on the perfect dhumanizer and trs rglages more convincingly in hard rock (on the first album for songs like War Pigs and Feary wear boots), or almost same thing with Blue Oyster Cult ( convaicnu least). I also test the mtallica (Master of Puppets, Damage Inc.), the Hammerfall, the sonata (no conviction for trs ca) and Evanescence (not bad). In a final for which she seems ideal: Joe Satriani with scoop trs quickly found a sound that comes close not bad (and yet my guitar looks like anything but an ibanez).
    In short I think for most it will be relatively mtalleux a good choice and will s'loigner also a bit of style to go to the rock n roll or hard rock. (The need to remove the scoop and keep four, and the gain around noon).

    The precision of the sound is really indniable there are the game scores and each attaqubr /> -> no forcment the benefit of beginners ;-)

    The stuff that I do not like it: I love how it sounds not too sharp with my guitar I'm used to a more rounded and less screaming and I'm a little on the ESG solos, especially that nevertheless does not pierce ca always in the "mix" just as a little garish. So this particular point makes me much hsiter buy it for good. But ultimately I think she can fully satisfy a wide range of backgrounds and guitarist of any note MRIT a trs ^ ^ though imperfect for what I want personally

    OVERALL OPINION

    Essay 3 days ... this is one of Premire PDAL I tested at home with my gear and or after 5 minutes to compare with my force his usual I do not end with leaving the hue and back quickly the store. On the contrary, and trs is a good sign when I went over my usual I found her less than usual (and usually quick comparisons, distort trs quickly resumed sound of our small imperfect human ear). This concern remains with the treble.
    Particularity: a relatively versatile PDAL East mtal clear, sounds inaudible trs typ without being away from l. Solidity empty.
    I tried ... Oula ... tons virtually anything could come out of Boss distortion, ibanez few years ago, that of my amp (an unfortunate valvstate) and others, a Rat II, Double Muff, of the other models and MXR. .. too fast a Metal Monster Guyatone (l rel is the dilemma).

    The report quality price ... bein just because I am not convinced even if it is a REALLY good pedals, the 30 minutes of testing I could do on the Metal Monster (which is a light distortion) let me think even when it is a bit expensive compared MODELS types of Rat or Metal Muff (which I unfortunately could not try, but I read the greater good).

    In the same order of a transformer ca ide is less of a practical battery for me is one of the things that I just gnent mtal with the monster so that it will be seen the same with The Dime ... j'hsite much. (APRS prfrez the transformer if you ca not cause you any concern).

    In the end I still do not know, I can not try the Metal Monster in my local store (and I can not order them without being on the take ... a shame). The Dime really convinced me of Black Sabbath and that's dja trs a good place for me, but the memory of a truly Monster headroom and re-enable the game knob the scratches I had rarely encountered (There's finally a light which, at least we know the what it is for the transformer!)

    So in conclusion I urge the DIME anyone looking for a big sound mtal fat but hot, dark, not synthetic, ployvalent still with a lot of gain. But the ones I also said, first try the Metal Monster and Metal Muff as these three, despite the price DIFFERENT apparently worth the blow of being compared and not satisfy forcment everyone in the same Manir: all fawn TRY BY YOU EVEN BEFORE!

    2-Distortion modes with British rock and Dimebag Darrell when the focus is engaged!
    -Egualisation: output, bass, middle, treble and gain
    -Only works on 18V adapter supplied

    UTILIZATION

    The configuration is simple but the knobs are sensitive to the pedals trs to trs be successful ...
    As for any effect it takes some time to adapt to find the DISTO you want! ds that is found is left for the big sound!

    SOUND QUALITY

    The mode is great rock sound that reminds me of british dirty! The PDAL is not metal but if that ACCS is in this area it excels! Against it by lack of versatility!

    For instructions on his dime there for fans of Pantera's gnial!
    As against it lacks a bit of heat but found this problem on all distos pedaling! Unless you have a mesa correct!

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for a month and I am satisfied until I compltement distos tried several but the one for me is the distortion of the market with the double shot!
    "I love the original sound but against his lack of versatility is the only default!
    -Report qualitprix is ​​great for my part I bought for 80 euros OCCAZ but you can find 120 euros on new THOMANN ... The price is affordable to a much more powerful than a boss or EHX!
    -I would do without hesitation that choice!
    Treat yourself you will not regret it!

    MXR DD11 Dime Distortion Pedal
    connections very simple: one in, one out and a plug for the 18v transformer
    Metal housing robust and very resistant knob distortion pedal in very robust and resistant to even bigger brutes!

    UTILIZATION

    Finally with a pedal power supply included!
    Config very simple: a volume knob, a bass, a medium, an acute, a drive and a switch to switch from "Rock" to "Dime". A kind of boost that cuts the medium: very effective!!
    The knobs are very sensitive, if you change a chouillat gives a completely different sound.
    A manual? What manual? : P

    SOUND QUALITY

    This gives a very good sound if you have good stuff behind ^ ^!
    The distortion is extremely accurate, I use it with a Washburn N2 (micro Bill Lawrence) and the sound is perfect for me, I play hard rock and metal (from Black Sabbath to Iron Maiden through Guns N Roses) .
    The sound is warm and precise: I love
    Rock mode was a very nice and saturated when the active boost the cest the break a big total with his precise and more's the grain of Mr. Dimebag!
    Pedal versatile enough contrary to what one might think because of the sensitivity of knobs. It is suitable for any style of Heavy Metal I think the trash ... s but can also orient to the other style with a good set.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for some months already, and I love the precision of the distortion (which is not an advantage for all ...)
    The guitar sound is not distorted so the problem is that if the stuff does not follow behind you can not make the most of the distortion, it is better to have a nice little scratch with good microphones.
    Another highlight: The power supply is provided! which is not negligible
    Pedal quite expensive all the same € 180 new ... I have purchased from OCCAZ for € 100 and I do not regret my choice.

    Play a low volume in an apartment (already in 5 watt mode and volume in 1:10 th, I wonder if I'm going to end up deaf), I hate to use it on scéne.J 'have not yet had time the search from top to bottom.

    OVERALL OPINION

    3 days I do with my way.
    Very good advice from other audiofanziens.
    Oh yes I have seen distos, but the one I found too clean with the gain at the bottom of the microphone lead. After all depends on the stuff too, but I'll join those who have already advised you very warmly. Purchased highgainman who make the business seriously, a blow like that to 75 euros, shipping included, I do not know if I'm going back often. Knowing that the same model used (which is not covered up to € 149) is € 120 for those interested in Playback.
