Re: Favorite Dual OD/Distortion Pedal?
Because the other 2 were posted, I will post this one too. It seems to be a little harder to find.

Favorite Dual OD/Distortion Pedal?

Re: Favorite Dual OD/Distortion Pedal?
Just a question, does the higher gain side go on the left or right side traditionally?

Re: Favorite Dual OD/Distortion Pedal?
The one I wanted to get when I still used pedals was the Visual Sound Double Trouble. Essentially two 808 circuits. Set one to drive the other or set the second one as a volume boost. Very cool pedal. The Jekyll and Hyde is still a good one.

Re: Favorite Dual OD/Distortion Pedal?
This one is good. Used it on my last record.
Everything from Overdrive to Distortion to heavy Fuzz attack and also has a dying 9 Volt potentiometer (Little Blue LED dial) for that Flaming Lips/Faust/Ween sound

Don't know if you want TS-9 overdrive - but here is one of my fave's:
Stamps Drive-O-Matic. TS9 and more TS9 with presence and tight/loose. Love it!

Originally posted by eclecticsynergy View PostAt the factory default settings it doesn't produce a whole lot of gain compared to most pedals. I've been running the Drives pretty hot, around three o'clock on the Brown and seven o'clock on the Red (which for the humbucker mode is full up). Mids usually feel right for me at about eleven o'clock - I know full clockwise is supposed to be flat, but the gain structure adds a fair amount of mids at high drive settings.
I haven't tried adjusting the internal trimpots or substituting caps. I've thought about upping the treble gain a bit but haven't felt it necessary so far. I agree that it'd be nice to be able to differentiate the channels more from one another. Still, I get that the box isn't intended to change the character of your tone a lot. It's only meant to be like adding an extra stage of gain to whatever amp you're using.
I know upping the internal master drive could alleviate some midranginess by letting me get more gain at lower drive settings. Still, I do like Church Of Tone style gain where you get extra upper mids when you kick it on - I'd thought that upping the treble gain trimpot inside the Blackstone might sort of approximate that. But I haven't played around with that yet.
At some point I'll dive in and experiment a bit; I think the little box might be more tweakable than it would appear at first.

Re: Favorite Dual OD/Distortion Pedal?
Also very fond of the Blackstone Mosfet OD. Doesn't mess with the inherent tone of your amp & guitars, just gives two extra channels of gain (either/or, not stackable). Extremely amplike response to touch/pick dynamics & guitar volume knobs. And it's small & inconspicuous, with recessed controls that resist accidents. Great option for those who like the sound of their amp already and don't want to remake it, just get a few more gain stages that feel and behave tubelike. Needs to be first in line before any buffers so it can interact directly with your pickups.

It’s definitely not the Waza custom mode.
I need to buy this and the Waza to play with.

It’s definitely not the Waza custom mode, someone did a video that compared them.
