I got the DC-II, it really shines in stereo. I wasn't convinced at all in mono. Also, for some reason, it's the best sounding chorus for distortion and lead tones. It's a very unique chorus.

I mean, literally the Guitar God of Japanese metal scene fixed this pedal for you, and you still complain??? I don't understand people. Also I do think the fact that this pedal is dark grey, makes it kinda unique. It's like ash color or something
@matheus.roling7 ай бұрын
I supose that its the amplifier model or something like that, that makes the pedal easyier or harder to get a nice tone... Just a theory, but even the worse pedal sounds nice in a Plexi, for example

I think an SD-1 (or a TS-9) when used as a booster needs to be last pedal right in front of the amp. Else it boosts the next pedal's input and looses some volume and some "mojo", doesn't sound and feel the same. I have a Line6 M5 in flanger or chorus mode going into a TS-9 into the front of an Engl Screamer 50 combo in crunch mode with gain at 12:00 o' clock to clean up with guitar volume. M5 has a DC-2 mode, it's nice but it needs two amps to shine.
