the sound I get from stacking my DS-2 into my SD-1, is insanely glorious, think Evolution by Pearl jam, the thing just screams like a broken megaphone in the best way ever
Use it driving an already dirty amp, you get those frequencies that start canceling each other….I love that. I set it right before that starts happening so when you dig…well, you know.
First time buying guitar pedals: What is the biggest difference between the SD-1 and the DS-1 in terms of sound produced? I assume the DS-1 is has more aggressive clipping?
It may be because people are not pushing the front end of their amp hard enough. What I mean is that having the level control really high and having the gain almost completely down, then you are getting more of the amp’s overdrive sound than the pedal. If you are talking about the tone in general, it might just be a matter of taste. I personally like the mids it adds to my tone. I like using it through a distorted amp that’s just before the point of fizzing up and falling apart, and it just sounds great to me. Better than the tube screamer IMO.
