Sounds

Alberta is quite unique; she makes your guitar sing.
She provides instant access to the kind of warm overdrive and emotive distortion usually reserved for 30-year-old tube amps. Alberta delivers a creamy, yet crunchy sound with a smooth mid-range boost, reminiscent of the old Ibanez TS-808.

Recorded with a Neumann U87 into a Great River Electronics MP-2NV and Coles 4038, into a Chandler TG2, and finally a Lynx Aurora 16 AD Converter

Here’s a clip of the MXR Distortion + effects pedal in all of its ugly yellow glory. I recorded this when I was 16 with a ‘93 Stratocaster and a Behringer GM110.

Cool Cat Distortion – inexpensive, true bypass, metal casing. Great tone. The knobs are located in a somewhat awkward spot, but otherwise this pedal rocks.
Guitar used: Suhr Classic (single-coils) but it also sounds great with a humbucker guitar.

http://www.premierguitar.com PG’s Joe Coffey is On Location in Nashville, TN, for Summer NAMM ‘09 where he visits the Visual Sound booth. In this segment, we get to check out three of their newest pedals – V2 Vans Warped Distortion, Open Road Overdrive and Truetone Clean Boost.

The V2 Vans Warped Distortion is limited edition pedal that has three basic controls – Grind, Edge, and Loud (translation: Drive, Tone, Volume). The Vans Warped Distortion is definitely geared towards Warped Tour inspired guitarists. The Visual Sound guys were really proud of its grinding, low-end distortion, which is pertinent to a lot of the Warped Tour bands’ tone.

Based on Visual Sound’s Route 808, the Open Road offers that tone but with a more open sounding, amp-like overdrive with less dominant mid-range. It produces clear low end, sparkling highs and none of the mid-range hump. Open Road features a very interactive tone circuit, effecting not only high-end roll-off, but gain structure as well.

Truetone Clean Boost is a way to push the front end of your tube amp. Then again, it’s also a great way to push a good overdrive pedal a bit harder. If you like the tone you already have from another pedal, just put Truetone after that pedal for a volume boost as the Visual Sound guys said its great for a solo boost or to make a certain part stand out.The Truetone can get up to a 15dB boost, but it runs internally off of 27V. So, all of that boost is clean. They bump up the voltage inside the pedal, rather than requiring use of a special external power supply.

Here is a tone demo of the Bugera V5 driving the 12″ speaker in my Peavey Bravo 112, distortion sounds only. Dean strat copy. Stock Peavey speaker, nothing fancy. Just seeing how the Bugera drives it. Distortion sounds pretty good I think; it’s still new and the tubes need some more breaking in. It gets very, very loud when hooked up to a 12″. I am playing this on the .1 watt setting with the volume about 7.
