Sounds

www.ToneFactor.com – This video shows a few different settings on the Fullbore for classic metal riffs. . Stay tuned for Part 2, shich shows the Fullbore used for both rhythm and lead guitar in the context of a modern metal song. The MXR M-116 Fullbore Metal has many features but only one goal, to create to most punishing distortion known to man and pack it into a small bulletproof case. Mission accomplished!
The MXR M-116 Fullbore Metal features killer features for having such a small footprint. As with any distortion there is a Volume knob and Gain knob. In addition, there is a Frequency knob that allows you to sweep the mids based the distortion tones you are looking for. Speaking of Mids, there are separate controls for Low, Mid and High so you have complete control over the sounds you produce just like you will have complete control over the audience. Switches control Scoop which boost the Highs and Lows for that modern metal tone and Gate which activated a switchable noise gate for the ultimate metal sounds. The Gate has an internal threshold control you you can set the sensitivity of the gate feature. All this is packed into a cool looking unfinished die cast case. MXR has done it again.

Features:

Three Band EQ w/ Sweepable Mids
Switches for Gate & Scoop
Built-in Noise Gate
Small MXR size case
True Hardwire Bypass
Three LEDs
All Analog Circuit Path

Includes:

1 Year Limited Warranty

http://www.premierguitar.com PG’s Rebecca Dirks is On Location in Anaheim, CA, for the 2010 NAMM Show where she visits the Source Audio booth. In this segment, we get to see three of their newest effects pedals — the Multiwave Bass Distortion, Multiwave Distortiong (guitar) and the Classic Distortion.

The Soundblox Multiwave Bass Distortion features the same multi-band process that made the original Multiwave guitar pedal so popular, but this time, the Source Audio engineers adapted the process to compliment the unique frequency range of the bass guitar. Multi-band processing divides a signal into multiple bands then distorts them individually, giving musicians unprecedented levels of sound clarity and note articulation. Bassists can effectively combine complex chords and intervals with distorted tones—the Multiwave eliminates the mush and allows each note to ring clear and true.

Users have access to 23 distinct and modern sounding distortions that go far beyond traditional sounds. They range from normal, for a somewhat traditional distortion curve, to extreme foldback and octave settings for more aggressive and synth-like tones. Each distortion type is further customizable via the drive control, and separate clean and distorted level knobs. This advanced sound control alleviates the tendency for low-end reduction associated with most bass distortion units. The Multiwave Bass is also compatible with the Hot Hand® motion controller, adding even more expressive possibilities.

The Multiwave Distortion features 21 distinctive and modern effects not found on typical distortion pedals. Based on new proprietary algorithms, these range from basic overdrive sounds to aggressive synth-like, octave heavy and extreme foldback settings that go far beyond emulations of typical classic distortions.

The Multiwave Distortions unique Multi-Band mode divides the input signal into several frequency bands, which are distorted separately before being re-combined. Guitarists can play complex distorted chords and each note can be heard with absolute clarity. Several notes can feed back or drone simultaneously while a separate melody is played on top without the typical loss of volume associated with most of other types of distortion. The Multiwave Distortion is also compatible with the Hot Hand® motion sensor. When connected, Hot Hand controls the amount of gain.

The Soundblox Classic Distortion packs 4 tube amp and 8 fuzz box overdrive tones plus a Clean Boost/Tone mode into one compact and easy to use pedal. Unlike other products, which attempt to digitally clone, model or emulate vintage gear, the organic tones of the Soundblox Pro Classic Distortion are the result of a five-year listening study and iterative algorithm design process involving over 40 classic pedals and extensive artist evaluation. Plus, the Classic Distortion is Hot Hand® ready for even more expressive capabilities.

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.

Taken from Metal Hammer Sept 06:

What do they sound like?

This techno-minded industrial duo seem bent on the marriage of creepy, mechanised atmospherics with a furious dance sensibility that sounds like a shoe-in soundtrack for a robot fight-sequence. Pumping beats, machine-like samples and howling guitars combine to create an angry sound that’s both infectious and ever so slightly scary – in a good way. Short of a riot, it’s doubtful you’ll hear a more manic or angry sound this year.
