Geez, i need this pedal misha! Please o please, continue making it so i cam save up for one! I’d be so grateful! I actually just saved up to buy your attack overdrive from protone a couple of years ago, then also got a dead horse overdrive.. and have been chasing a good progressive metal tone.. but i simply am limited on my gear/money... i have a cheap combo amp, and a cheap 7-string guitar, and have been trying to practice and play guitar.. so i could record and make demos... on my way, but would love to get this pedal and try it out when i can!
Hi guys. Ive got a question. I bought the evh 5150od and precision drive and goes into an ISP decimator 2, i still get a lot of hiss even though ive already set it to around 10-20thresh. Gain on 5150od is about 1oClock and 0gain on Pdrive. Whenever i dial in the brightness knob of the pd i seem to get more and more hiss and noise even when palm muted. Can you give me some advice?
I'm highly entertained by the prospect that Misha ran a cab simulator and 5150 overdrive because he simply does not own an amplifier inexpensive enough to do this test.
If I buy The Precision Drive the first thing I'm-a do is throw down on my 70's Fender Twin and see what happens. After you guys catch up with your pre-orders, that is. Hope to catch you at NAMM!!!
I love this sound. I just bought a EVH 5150 III head and this pedal is the first thing that came to mind. I'm gonna buy one right now! thank you for everything you've done for the metal community Misha!
Thank you Misha. I just ordered one. I am a shredder that likes to djent too. You, Ola and Keith convinced me to give it a go. The fact this does analog and digital is what sold me. I do more studio work without amps so this video helped in my decision.
Honestly, I've been doing the Precision Drive to EVH like in this video since I got the pedal, and it's everything I'd hoped for. Cleans up the sound so much and gives all the control I need to switch between virtually all play styles and guitar roles. The gate is also top tier - it runs better than a lot of the standalone gates to my surprise. Loving my smaller pedalboard.
The tone you can get for recording from this gear is awesome. The price gap from this pedals to other high end gear just doesn't correspond the quality gap between them. If I were to go to a studio to have my band's material recorded with the gear from this video, I'd be totally fine.
Mistic Formula it's a great tone but in a mix with bass and drums and vocals it fits better in a recording mix especially if you cut out some of the low end (although for just solo tone I love that low end punch)
Honetly, you do not need these pedals, if you are only going to play at home through a sim and an IR. You just need an interface, an EQ to simulate the attack knob and some free plugins. But for a live amp application, it makes a lot of sense to get such an updated overdive.
This a great setup for the studio, but would this work in a live setting if I played through a clean amp? (Precision Drive > MXR EVH 5150 OD > Clean Amp)
I'm really glad I pre ordered this. It's going to replace my pro tone, and we'll see, maybe my Savage drive too. Looking forward to doing a demo video and a shootout video of this on my channel.
This demo was very useful and highlighted the pedal's capability well. No offense to the other demos, but I liked your knob twisting and A vs B better.
Heres a BIG recommendation, please come up with a Cab Sim sorta pedal which doesnt suck,Precision overdrive seems like the best solution for overdrive and with a damn noise gate its a great buy but new cab sim pedal would be great for easy plug in live applications instead of the super heavy big and clunky cab sim solutions for live. you guys gave us something great to start the chain with now give us something equally great to put it on end of the chain.
This is awesome! I have been wondering how this would work with a good distortion and then into a audio interface. I pre-ordered the precision drive, can't wait to receive it. What IR's are you using? Any that you recommend?
Loving the Precision Drive so far, myself i`m using it with no drive, just to make my already high gain tone more punchy, one thing though, sparks came flying out of it when i plugged in the power cable, guessing its not supposed to do that?
I have issues with mine. I plug into a blackstar amp a distortion pedal. With the presicion drive distortion pass 2, I can get odd distortion sounds. Bad noise sounds. Still testing the pedal, but so far, I've found that it's noisy. The gate can cut things, but the orginal signal isn't great. But I'm testing.
We are a separate company that has decided to have MXR manufacture for us as they have a killer reputation. We are really excited to partner with them!
Hi, would i need to have a separate noise gate/supressor if example i’d be running an evh 5150 pedal and a precision drive in front of the clean channel of a 6505+112 combo?
How is the double gating going on here with the 5150 pedals on board gate plus the gate in the precision drive? I can see the LED activity on both pedals. Further - I presume that the gate inside of each is basically the same/similar circuit to that of the MXR "smart gate" or M135 type? I'm using TS-808 Reissue now and a TC Sentry which is a very good combo but I must admit the idea of gate+boost for high gain amp in one pedal is a fantastic idea. I would love to trim down to ONE pedal into the amp.
Most people are choosing to use the Precision Drive gate at a rather low setting for just noise reduction, then pairing it with a more intense external gate. However a lot of customers are also using it by itself because they're not trying to squas preamp noise as well or just get SUPER tight. Depends on how much gating you need!
My gate bately works on the precision drive i got... it comes on late-ish... u guys said its not really a gate but a curtain... i was like ok... now running two gates. Good pedal tho
I want to buy this pedal and play things like A Perfect Circle and Dance Gavin Dance and Chevelle and Polyphia and that’s where my musical direction is headed. any suggestions on the distortion pedal?
Mishap great video. One question about the pedal. Since it has a built in gate can the pedal be turned on and keep just the volume up and turn the rest all the way down (attack bright etc) to gate other pedals in the chain? Who's your favorite Caps player? Love OVI but mines probably Alzner he is a workhorse and consistently brings every night.
Hey Jared! It's not designed to be used as a gate only but you could hypothetically use the controls to flatten out the signal a little bit. Misha will have to tell you his favorites Caps player!
I just got the EVH 5150 pedal and it's awesome. doesn't it have the same noisegate as the Precision drive? The EVH also has a boost built in but it's not as tight as your pedal.
Hey, I see this is an old video but im very interested to know if the precision pedal would give me more meat and gain at lower volumes on my unmodded JCM 800 2203 from 1989?? I see someone mentioned the JMP-1.
Hey Misha! I have question here. So i have an Orange Or15 and i play mostly metal/modern metal stuff, but my amp cant give me the right " tone".I love the vintage tone for metal but i need to boost it a little bit to sound more powerful and "gainy". Can i get that with this beauty? Keep with the good work man , periphery is love periphery is life \m/! (ps: I have a Boss MT-2 wich in my opinion is very bad for boosting).
And i will buy a new guitar this year with good pickups. My guitar is a budget one that i had for 120 bucks 7 years ago. So trying to play good music with a good amp and a really bad guitar hurts a little.
Could we see a quick demo of the Precision Drive through a Mesa Rectifier? I own a dual rec and I feel a boost makes or breaks the modern mode on the amp, and finding the right Ballance of low end shape and volume is always tricky on this amp.
Sweet video? I do have a question. I just ordered this pedal and it will be literally the first one I have ever owned. My setup I will be using is simply my guitar, to drive, to interface. I use bias amps, mainly a triple rec mesa sim or evh 5150. How well do you think that this pedal will work with that simple setup without having an extra drive pedal such as the evh 5150?
+theone1 The 5150OD, in this setup, is acting like an amp simulator, and not as an overdrive. Since you already use Bias for amp simulation, you don't need a pedal like the 5150OD. Hope this answers your question!
Just krank the output button on the evh (3 o'clock) and it will be like a drive effect (more dynamics) and the button boost engaged will add more brightness but this demo remains the best on youtube to show how good a distortion can be with an overdrive pedal without spending too much money... powerful and clear, Nice job!
I bought both pedals, going into an evh 5150iii stealth 50w with an evh cab, copied the exact pedal settings, tried on the green and blue channels with eq at 12 o'clock and STILL can't get that stupid tight rhythm chug
Hi guys. Ive got a question. I bought the evh 5150od and precision drive and goes into an ISP decimator 2, i still get a lot of hiss even though ive already set it to around 10-20thresh. Gain on 5150od is about 1oClock and 0gain on Pdrive. Whenever i dial in the brightness knob of the pd i seem to get more and more hiss and noise even when palm muted. Can you give me some advice?
So I have a Peavy 6505+ 60 watt combo running into a Marshall 1960a lead 4x12. Which pedal would be better to get a sylosis style tone with ability to play more djenty riffs similar to your playing misha?
I've purchased this pedal already (anxiously awaiting) would I get the desired effect, similar to the video, with just an orange micro terror or would you suggest getting the evh pedal too? I really like this tone. I do have an old ds-1 that I've had forever.
The micro terror is pretty thick so you'd stand a decent chance at evening that out with the PD and getting a pretty good tone as long as you have a good cab (not the 1x8 they sell it with).
Horizon Devices Thanks for the reply. Yeah I just ordered a PPC 212 and that head. I've been playing through an old carvin and a Korg toneworks, so I wanna experiment with some real pedals and effects.
FYI this vid more than any other got me to take out my debit card lol I'd put this vid on your site...very good demo...I'm sold jaha I'm not even a "djent" player I just need that edge and this thing does some cool stuff up front.
substitute for the 5150 pedal to get such an epic tone? I have a pod 2.0 ill try using that, otherwise it's going to have to be a VST like the helix native... Any other ideas? Gonna test as my horizon pedal will arrive in a few days
omg man when does this pedal come out man. I check my mailbox and look for tracking status. I don't read the website as I just look up what I need and buy so I'm not sure if it displayed a release date..
All preorders shipped early! Please reach out to CS at help@horizondevices.com if your pedal hasn't arrived and you're in the US. International orders will take a bit longer to arrive.
Questions: maybe dumb one, but could I use a set up like this but with a real cab instead of going to an interface into a simulator? So basically guitar to pedals to cab.
Question; I am kinda a gear noob. So, If I am using this as a boost, does it transition well into a clean signal? That is, can I switch directly to my clean channel or would I have to turn this off to have a clean tone?
Depends on how you set the pedal and your clean channel! You'd probably want to dial in your clean tone extra fat since you'll have the pedal on pretty bright settings in front of a distortion tone.
LaloWolzzz did you even pay attention? Even if you miss the cues where he states when he turns what off, you can still see with your very eyes what pedal is on.
We're glad everybody loves how great the pedal can sound on a budget rig.
Get yours here:
horizondevices.com/
I want a Plugin!!!!!!! \m/
linofcp007 that would be amazing
Geez, i need this pedal misha! Please o please, continue making it so i cam save up for one! I’d be so grateful! I actually just saved up to buy your attack overdrive from protone a couple of years ago, then also got a dead horse overdrive.. and have been chasing a good progressive metal tone.. but i simply am limited on my gear/money... i have a cheap combo amp, and a cheap 7-string guitar, and have been trying to practice and play guitar.. so i could record and make demos... on my way, but would love to get this pedal and try it out when i can!
Hi guys. Ive got a question. I bought the evh 5150od and precision drive and goes into an ISP decimator 2, i still get a lot of hiss even though ive already set it to around 10-20thresh.

Misha's like the coolest guitarist among the coolest guitarists I've ever seen haha xD
J.S. PropTail Justin Lowe and Trent Hafdahl, Charles Caswell.
I'm highly entertained by the prospect that Misha ran a cab simulator and 5150 overdrive because he simply does not own an amplifier inexpensive enough to do this test.
I have a tiny terror, I just wanted to show how simple a setup you could get away with if you have the precision drive.
Would Love to see how it sounds with the Tiny Terror as I have considered getting one. :)
If I buy The Precision Drive the first thing I'm-a do is throw down on my 70's Fender Twin and see what happens. After you guys catch up with your pre-orders, that is. Hope to catch you at NAMM!!!
Now I want the Precision Drive in front of a cranked twin.
what does cab sim have to do with not using expensive amp? cab isn't amp
i literally was searching for horizon vs 5150... i love you sir
Thanks for demoing it with the clean, it sounds unreal Misha!
Jesus christ. The way this pedal changes the sound is absolutely astonishing. So excited - ordered mine on christmas day! :D
I love this sound. I just bought a EVH 5150 III head and this pedal is the first thing that came to mind. I'm gonna buy one right now! thank you for everything you've done for the metal community Misha!
I could watch Misha stream himself jamming or practicing..like...daily...for hours.
Liar
Naming the suckers that bought it to!!!ouch!¡!!
lol Misha start streaming on Twitch!
Thank you Misha. I just ordered one. I am a shredder that likes to djent too. You, Ola and Keith convinced me to give it a go. The fact this does analog and digital is what sold me. I do more studio work without amps so this video helped in my decision.
So that distortion tone is amazing from the EVH 5150 I can't find any other videos online where it sounds that good!
4:50 Zero's riff in Drop C instead of Ab sounds so squeaky
This is so sick man. This video answered every question I had about this pedal. Great job!
Yeah Misha you pronounced it very well, can't wait to try finally the fruit of your work ! ;)
Honestly, I've been doing the Precision Drive to EVH like in this video since I got the pedal, and it's everything I'd hoped for. Cleans up the sound so much and gives all the control I need to switch between virtually all play styles and guitar roles. The gate is also top tier - it runs better than a lot of the standalone gates to my surprise. Loving my smaller pedalboard.
Thanks for the review!
I just love your passion and knowledge for gear, Misha. It's super inspiring. Definitely thinking about ordering one of these now.
The tone you can get for recording from this gear is awesome.
The price gap from this pedals to other high end gear just doesn't correspond the quality gap between them.
If I were to go to a studio to have my band's material recorded with the gear from this video, I'd be totally fine.
Now that, is one sexual tone. Praise to Misha
He is pretty good for a beginner.
(i'm beginner just in pedal) it is like the bulb attack overdrive ?
Antho COMPARATO yeah similar
yes
That attack knob is sick. It works like a tone shaper.
HUGE difference, indeed! Very cool!
Loved the tone.
I think this pedal is the most worthy pedal I have (will - preordered) ever get beside my Ego comp. Thanks Misha and Horizon Devices!
Thanks for the support!
I actually liked the “wooly” tone the most in this demo.The other tones are cool too, though. Good demo!
Mistic Formula it's a great tone but in a mix with bass and drums and vocals it fits better in a recording mix especially if you cut out some of the low end (although for just solo tone I love that low end punch)
Honetly, you do not need these pedals, if you are only going to play at home through a sim and an IR. You just need an interface, an EQ to simulate the attack knob and some free plugins. But for a live amp application, it makes a lot of sense to get such an updated overdive.
The Schwartz is strong with all these pedals .... Most excellent, deliciously good tones, Mr. Mansoor... Good times, good vid, good tones \m/ \m/
Oh man I can't wait to hear this thing through an Orange
Can't wait to get mine in! Cool Vid and demo!
This a great setup for the studio, but would this work in a live setting if I played through a clean amp? (Precision Drive > MXR EVH 5150 OD > Clean Amp)
This was the setup for Misha's NAMM demo of the Precision Drive :)
Thanks for replying; I think I'll be getting one of these pedals soon!
Edit: Just placed my order!
I'm really glad I pre ordered this. It's going to replace my pro tone, and we'll see, maybe my Savage drive too. Looking forward to doing a demo video and a shootout video of this on my channel.
Cannot wait to run this overdrive in my rig. Come on with it, already.!!
This demo was very useful and highlighted the pedal's capability well. No offense to the other demos, but I liked your knob twisting and A vs B better.
Another question. The cab sim Le Poile - does it process the tone in real time? What we hear is the tone? Thanks
any alternative for the EVH? i have an 8 string for djentie stuff....
maybe Mesa Throttle Box? Diezel VH4? Engl e530?
Heres a BIG recommendation, please come up with a Cab Sim sorta pedal which doesnt suck,Precision overdrive seems like the best solution for overdrive and with a damn noise gate its a great buy but new cab sim pedal would be great for easy plug in live applications instead of the super heavy big and clunky cab sim solutions for live.
you guys gave us something great to start the chain with now give us something equally great to put it on end of the chain.
Rivera has something pretty good, its around $400 or so, I'm not sure
It sounds so good.
This is awesome! I have been wondering how this would work with a good distortion and then into a audio interface. I pre-ordered the precision drive, can't wait to receive it. What IR's are you using? Any that you recommend?
Loving the Precision Drive so far, myself i`m using it with no drive, just to make my already high gain tone more punchy, one thing though, sparks came flying out of it when i plugged in the power cable, guessing its not supposed to do that?
I'm curious if this better than the new Friedman pedal or the pro tone tosin pedal?
Only 360p :o
Mika Tarkela this is captured from a live stream, i didnt expect much
Yeah, realized it after a while :D
@Misha can you provide any info on the cab sim/IR you were using?? thanks!!
Super video ! Could you please tell me what's the name of this delay pedal ? It's sounds really amazing too !
Thanks so much ! 👍
I sold my Pro Tone Attack overdrive to help buy this. I preordered over a week ago. Can't wait.
Thanks Jack!
You betcha!
So want to run one of these through my Hughes&Kettner.
Great pedal! Whats the cab impulse you used? Any links appreciated
I have issues with mine. I plug into a blackstar amp a distortion pedal. With the presicion drive distortion pass 2, I can get odd distortion sounds. Bad noise sounds. Still testing the pedal, but so far, I've found that it's noisy. The gate can cut things, but the orginal signal isn't great. But I'm testing.
is the precision drive gonna be a main staple in MXR's products?
Its not actually an MXR product they are just doing the production. So it will be a main staple of Horizon Devices not MXR.
We are a separate company that has decided to have MXR manufacture for us as they have a killer reputation. We are really excited to partner with them!
Horizon Devices after the preorder window, will there still be a chance to purchase them?
As far as I know, it depends on a lot of extraneous factors. I think management is working on this!
+Horizon Devices when is the pre order cut off date?
Any chance the IR he used in LeCab can be linked / demystified?
what a fkn sweet tone
Just ordered one to go through my Mesa rectoverb. Can't fucking wait.
Sweet!
Hi, would i need to have a separate noise gate/supressor if example i’d be running an evh 5150 pedal and a precision drive in front of the clean channel of a 6505+112 combo?

where did you get your cab sim?
My gate bately works on the precision drive i got... it comes on late-ish... u guys said its not really a gate but a curtain... i was like ok... now running two gates. Good pedal tho
Misha, would u be so kind as to reveal which IRs ur using there?
Robert Haskin 2:25 some free Mesa cab IRs
Thanks benji!
I want to buy this pedal and play things like A Perfect Circle and Dance Gavin Dance and Chevelle and Polyphia and that’s where my musical direction is headed. any suggestions on the distortion pedal?
Mishap great video. One question about the pedal. Since it has a built in gate can the pedal be turned on and keep just the volume up and turn the rest all the way down (attack bright etc) to gate other pedals in the chain?
Who's your favorite Caps player? Love OVI but mines probably Alzner he is a workhorse and consistently brings every night.
Hey Jared!
It's not designed to be used as a gate only but you could hypothetically use the controls to flatten out the signal a little bit.
Misha will have to tell you his favorites Caps player!
If youre a student, soundtoys might have a cheaper reverb kit than the echorec. That drive sounds dam good tho.
Preordered. It would be great to know the exact cab sims being used though.
Man i really want one of these, can't afford it right now. Will i be able to get my hands on one later on in the year?
Sounds Really cool!
Hi - is it safe to boost a pedal? I have burnt one down back in days. Two distortions - fantastic tone but the later one in the series died were soon.
If I ran these through a Roland JC120, would it be essential?
I just got the EVH 5150 pedal and it's awesome. doesn't it have the same noisegate as the Precision drive?
The EVH also has a boost built in but it's not as tight as your pedal.
HI!
It is not the same gate. Ours was tweaked over 6 revisions to be tighter for modern metal.
Cool stuff. I really like the EVH pedal and with a 44 Magnum EHX power amp you have the ultimate pedalboard rig :D
I'm a complete recording noob. Please can you give me links for the cabs and interface you're using? Would mean a lot, thanks
so what was the names of the free cab sim?
Le pou vst4free.com/dev/258/
Yo Bulb! Sense you have the Apex now is that a better pedal than the 5150od in this situation..as in the set up your using in this video?
Hey, I see this is an old video but im very interested to know if the precision pedal would give me more meat and gain at lower volumes on my unmodded JCM 800 2203 from 1989?? I see someone mentioned the JMP-1.
Well this ever be available for sale in major retail stores (GC/Sam Ash)? I'd love to buy one but I'm the type to wanna try things before purchase (:
Just buy it and if you don't like it sell it. That's what I do but mainly because I don't like to go anywhere
EVH MXR 5150 overdrive $199
Precision Drive $220
Catalinbread Binson Echorec $239
Tone on a budget indeed
Exactly. This is more about being a minimalist then a poor average Joe.
Does anyone know which impulses he's using in this? I know he said some mesa cab he found online but there are quite a few out there...
Brendan McGeeney you can google "gods cab" its an IR of a 4x12 mesa cab that is pretty good imo
Hey Misha! I have question here. So i have an Orange Or15 and i play mostly metal/modern metal stuff, but my amp cant give me the right " tone".I love the vintage tone for metal but i need to boost it a little bit to sound more powerful and "gainy". Can i get that with this beauty? Keep with the good work man , periphery is love periphery is life \m/! (ps: I have a Boss MT-2 wich in my opinion is very bad for boosting).
Francisco Duarte I'm not Misha but you absolutely need a boost. oranges are very flubby for metal so a boost is needed to tighten things up
Hey thx man! I bought the Orange because of the versatility and for the boost. I just need to find the right pedal for that.
And i will buy a new guitar this year with good pickups. My guitar is a budget one that i had for 120 bucks 7 years ago. So trying to play good music with a good amp and a really bad guitar hurts a little.
I think the precision drive would do the trick for you man!
Yes haha it does
Which IRs did you use????????????
Could we see a quick demo of the Precision Drive through a Mesa Rectifier?
I own a dual rec and I feel a boost makes or breaks the modern mode on the amp, and finding the right Ballance of low end shape and volume is always tricky on this amp.
Ola Englund did one, just search for "Ola Englund Precision Drive".
I've admittedly done this with a Metal Zone and a cab simulator... it actually didn't sound that bad. Not great, but not bad.
What happen if Horizon Devices Connected to 5150 od then into mooer radar cab simulator? Is that a full rig?
Sweet video? I do have a question. I just ordered this pedal and it will be literally the first one I have ever owned. My setup I will be using is simply my guitar, to drive, to interface. I use bias amps, mainly a triple rec mesa sim or evh 5150. How well do you think that this pedal will work with that simple setup without having an extra drive pedal such as the evh 5150?
+theone1 The 5150OD, in this setup, is acting like an amp simulator, and not as an overdrive. Since you already use Bias for amp simulation, you don't need a pedal like the 5150OD.
Hope this answers your question!
Awesome demo.
Just krank the output button on the evh (3 o'clock) and it will be like a drive effect (more dynamics) and the button boost engaged will add more brightness but this demo remains the best on youtube to show how good a distortion can be with an overdrive pedal without spending too much money... powerful and clear, Nice job!
I bought both pedals, going into an evh 5150iii stealth 50w with an evh cab, copied the exact pedal settings, tried on the green and blue channels with eq at 12 o'clock and STILL can't get that stupid tight rhythm chug
Hey Misha how about behringer gdi21 + precision drive?
Are you plugging the guitar->pedals->interface?
Or is there an amp in between the pedals and interface?
Lads and ladies, any recommendations on audio interfaces? Want a nice home set up on a budget and this would be epic.
Jon Last I have no interface, but maybe one of those focusrite scarlets are good for you
if i want thy art is murder tone something like that
use evh 5150 and precision drive enough?
Hi guys. Ive got a question. I bought the evh 5150od and precision drive and goes into an ISP decimator 2, i still get a lot of hiss even though ive already set it to around 10-20thresh. Gain on 5150od is about 1oClock and 0gain on Pdrive. Whenever i dial in the brightness knob of the pd i seem to get more and more hiss and noise even when palm muted. Can you give me some advice?
So I have a Peavy 6505+ 60 watt combo running into a Marshall 1960a lead 4x12. Which pedal would be better to get a sylosis style tone with ability to play more djenty riffs similar to your playing misha?
The Horizon Drive would get you there easily!
I've purchased this pedal already (anxiously awaiting) would I get the desired effect, similar to the video, with just an orange micro terror or would you suggest getting the evh pedal too? I really like this tone. I do have an old ds-1 that I've had forever.
The micro terror is pretty thick so you'd stand a decent chance at evening that out with the PD and getting a pretty good tone as long as you have a good cab (not the 1x8 they sell it with).
Horizon Devices Thanks for the reply. Yeah I just ordered a PPC 212 and that head. I've been playing through an old carvin and a Korg toneworks, so I wanna experiment with some real pedals and effects.
Do you think it would sound good with a MXR Super Badass Distortion?
I'm a newb when it comes to gear.. what are you playing out of to produce the sound? lol no amp?
FYI this vid more than any other got me to take out my debit card lol I'd put this vid on your site...very good demo...I'm sold jaha I'm not even a "djent" player I just need that edge and this thing does some cool stuff up front.
substitute for the 5150 pedal to get such an epic tone? I have a pod 2.0 ill try using that, otherwise it's going to have to be a VST like the helix native... Any other ideas? Gonna test as my horizon pedal will arrive in a few days
SnakeHelah The Mooer Brown Sound 3 is pretty good.
watching this video now knowing that the caps did, in fact, destroy the pens is the coolest fucking thing. LETS GO CAPS!!
omg man when does this pedal come out man. I check my mailbox and look for tracking status. I don't read the website as I just look up what I need and buy so I'm not sure if it displayed a release date..
depends on when you ordered it. They have the estimated dates for the different batches on their website
All preorders shipped early! Please reach out to CS at help@horizondevices.com if your pedal hasn't arrived and you're in the US. International orders will take a bit longer to arrive.
Questions: maybe dumb one, but could I use a set up like this but with a real cab instead of going to an interface into a simulator? So basically guitar to pedals to cab.
Brandon Kyle yes if you use a pedal as a preamp like misha did with the evh 5150 od
Question; I am kinda a gear noob. So, If I am using this as a boost, does it transition well into a clean signal? That is, can I switch directly to my clean channel or would I have to turn this off to have a clean tone?
Depends on how you set the pedal and your clean channel! You'd probably want to dial in your clean tone extra fat since you'll have the pedal on pretty bright settings in front of a distortion tone.
Came to this vid thinking it'd make me want a Precision Drive, ended up wanting an Echorec
i have a marshall 1960's slanted cab and a solid state laney, would this work will with that?
Yep!
Hello misha you use ir cabsim ?
I know this is an "old" video and i hope i get an answer: WOuld the friedman BE-OD work the same as the 5150 OD?
Pierre-Claude Meriot yup
Is he using only the pedals or an amp too? I mean, all the distortion and tone comes from the Evh overdrive pedal?
LaloWolzzz did you even pay attention? Even if you miss the cues where he states when he turns what off, you can still see with your very eyes what pedal is on.
It's just the pedals, no amp.
what's the guitar? love it
Did you use the Precision Overdrive for the Deus Ex Soundtrack?
