It's nice but It sounds doesn't blow my mind.

For a distortion pedal with "Metal" in its name, it should Sounds pretty sweet!

Thanks for the demonstration!

I think it sounds pretty usable for a distortion pedal that's relatively cheap. Ofcourse it doesn't sound like a roaring tube-amp on 11, but I like that it doesn't sound like fizzy crap from the getgo. I've tried some distortionboxes in the past, and all of them had the angry bees until you turned everything down so far that it sounded like you put a blanket over the amp. This one has the potential to sound pretty thick without that shit it seems. Eventough it wouldn't be my choice for the mainguitars of an album, I could definitely see myself using this for cool effects or making a riff stick out for a moment.

I think it sounds pretty cool. I would test a tubescreamer in front of it

i dont have any speaker here to listen, but i had this pedal for a while, it was my prefered because it had nice mids, but finally i realized it sounded really plastic and thin. people in shows came and told me i need a new pedal because its sounds cheap... dunno.

anyway i am curious what sound you got out of it

 

[sinquestsound]

I tested it only with one impulse, the possibilities are really a lot, I'm most curious as to the true sound amplifier and microphones,
Stay metall,

on an amp its not as deep as a metalzone. and far away from a tube amp
