Slowly I get the grip on how the drive works.I still need a shaper to get there where I want in some cases.It is all about this "attack" thing for me..tube overdrive is just more responsive and "direct".In my ears.
Anyway..
I guess OD pedals for me will always remain "cheap distortion" and a thing of the early 80s.I can't change this.
what are you doing with the shaper? ive never bothered much with the ODs, but with these new additions i might pay more attention to it
