    What a great in depth demo! Great playing and explanations. When you got in to boosting the sounds it got really nice for me, thank you!

    I have used many different drive pedals and it was sometimes difficult to get the sound I was looking for. With this pedal I was easily creating the sound I had in my head mostly due to the ability to adjust the low/mid/high freqs separately. Also, being able to stack within the pedal is amazing and fun. This pedal will never leave my board. On a side note the learning curve initially appears to be overwhelming but once you dive into the settings it makes since and very easy to remember and comprehend.

    Yes, turn me loose! Classic. Thanks for the review. I have been considering getting this to replace my fuzz, od, distortion, and boost for gigging to reduce the pedal count. I am leaning towards getting one. It seems very flexible.

      In the settings (press PARAM+MEMORY buttons) you can define the start and end preset number. EtF means extend from - Ett means extend to. Simply set Ett to the highest preset you want to use - e.g. 25.

    The only reason I purchased this pedal (not yet received) is the MIDI capability. I would have spent at least 5 minutes on this function. Most people with OD/Boost pedals will buy this pedal for the main feature of MIDI. Great review otherwise!
