I'm just curious about what everyone is using because I think overdrives are just as important as the amp. How do you use them; clean or gain boost? as boost or main distortion? what are your settings?
I'll go first. I'm using the mxr zakk wylde overdrive and I LOVE it. I use it as a clean boost. It really adds nice attack, doesn't color my tone, really tightens the low end and it doesn't really add any mids.
My prefered settings are output all the way, tone at 10 o clock (I like low end) and barely any gain. When I change channels in this setting it makes my cleans kinda dirty which I really like, idk I don't like my clean channel very clean, but if I add more gain it sounds like a low gain ds1.
your overdrive?
