A tone shaping amp driver
I purchased this because I needed to push the front end of a Rocker 15 and shape the tone to give a more modern metal edge. The reason I plumped for this pedal over countless others is due to the excellent sound demo of the Rocker 15 given by Sonic Drive Studios. In this video he plays one song that goes from chimey cleans, though gradually more overdriven/distorted sections all the way to a modern metal tone. This was the pedal he used towards the end of the video (not endorsed) to drive the amp hard into modern gain territory. I thought for £90 it’s worth the gamble. I wasn’t disappointed! The magic of this pedal for what I required lay with both the insane amount of clean boost (30db) that will push the front of my amp more than any other pedal I own, but also with the bass and treble tone shaping controls… these are set flat at the halfway mark, so I can remove any bassy flub and add treble to taste.There is also a pre-mid boost/low pre-mid boost to help thicken tone if you need it, as well as a gain control you can use over a clean amp for different flavours. Silent switching, excellent build quality, lovely packaging too!The ONLY issue I have is the rubber feet on the bottom… they just make it a little fiddly to mount to a pedalboard.If you’re still unsure, Tom Quayle also has an excellent YouTube review, and that guy knows tone.

Beautiful sounds and textures
This is a beautiful effects pedal.The spring and plate reverbs sound great.The secret path reverb with the shimmer on is other worldly. You can create some absolutely beautiful textures with it.There is a good amount of control over the sound you can play, which makes the tones really usable. I can’t recommend it enough if you’re into ambient guitar or shoegazy type stuff.It’s also great in your rock lead lines too.5 stars!

Sounds Awesome
It is amazing how much you can push the reverb Size and Volume (mix) without getting any muddy. The audio quality and clarity is insane. I love the fact that there is a Tone and Pre-delay which help you go from very dark to pristine sound. Build quality is perfect.
