MI Audio Tube Zone clip

[StrangeSound]

Hey there,

I did a test run with my new OD pedal. It's the first single overdrive pedal for me and it does NOT change the tone of the guitar, which seems cool but I have to get used to it.

The mic was placed almost at the speaker's centre which explains the more "upper mids" sound...I shouldn't have placed the mic too near of the centre.

Anyway, here is the clip..please excuse my sloppy playing!

Test run

I'm still learning how to use it :fingersx:

Sounds neat. What's it like for high-gain riffing?

Thanks for checking!

I don't know..didn't try it yet But I can imagine it will sound good because it won't sound muddy but transparent.

I'll try it later!

I hope I'll get some serious tone soon..otherwise I'd sell it and buy new tubes for the Screamer and will still have money left for good cables.

I bought this thing blindly...and some people on the Brett Garsed forum want to buy one..we'll see

The controls are very interactive on that pedal once you get the feel of how they interact its easier to dial in, I also thought the pedal sounded better with the Internal presence turned almost completely off!

I ended up selling mine because the Barber Direct Drive suits my needs better but the TZ is a very good pedal!

Thanks for checking! I recorded a new tune but with less reverb from the G-major (it was too much and the TZ produced too much "oomph") and I increased the internal presence a bit.

Is it normal that you have to crank the gain to, at least, 75% to get a nice tone with sustain? Less seems useless for solo..then it's better for rhythm stuff.

Thanks Mr. BBQ

I recorded a new one..TZ activated @ the end of the track

CLICK

In the end it almost doesn't matter what I use..it always sounds like me

I think your playing is great. Your technique and note selection are pretty much bang on! Very lyrical, but not boring . . . I really want to be able to play like this. . . and your tone is good too!

Those pedals caught my eye too. They sure look cool. The tone sounds good, but it's so hard to judge OD's from clips. I always like pedals that get their best sound when the controls are somewhere near the middle, so I'm curious about that presence control.

Your note selection reminds me of Satriani off his first album, Not of This Earth. Sounds great, bro!

Re: MI Audio Tube Zone clip

Thanks guys!

Yeah it's very difficult to judge a pedal this way. I played the TZ and well..it sounded like me nevertheless

I really thought there will come a new, fresh sound out of it but the player makes the sound...now I know for sure!
