Product Description
From the Manufacturer
The legendary Death Metal pedal is by far the most extreme distortion you will ever hear. Simply put, we have turned the gain up to "eleven" and ripped the knob off. Level, Low, Mid, and High tone controls provide flexible tone shaping, so even though this distortion is over the top, your guitar is guaranteed to cut through.
Technical Specifications
- Level boosts the output level of your guitar signal.
- Low adjusts boost and cut of bass frequencies.
- Mid adjusts boost and cut of midrange frequencies.
- High adjusts boost and cut of high frequencies.
- Dual Outputs. The Amp output is for connecting directly to a guitar amplifier. The Mixer output features Cabinet Emulation circuitry for a mic'd up amp tone when connecting directly to a mixing board or recording device.

WOW!,
This review is from: Digitech DDM Death Metal Analog Distortion Pedal (Electronics)
Ok I have been playing guitar for about 5 years. Electric Guitar for almost 2. I kinda got bored of not having a loud heavy distortion. Using any amp you can get heavy distortion by turning up the preamp high and the postamp down, but then the sound is barely audible. So when I got this I immeadiatly fell in love with it. The sound at first gave me too much feed back. So what you have to do is you have put your amp on clean. If you want to use your amp distortion for the entire song and then this pedal for the solo then you have to be playing from the moment you turn the distortion on til the moment you turn it off or else it screechs. The sugested settings (death scoop, smooth, knifes edge, and rectified) are good for getting used to the pedal, but after awhile you need to find your own settings. I love this pedal. I compared it to such pedals as the Metal Zone and The Boss Death Metal (digitech bought out Boss so they are the same, just the digitech has more crunch) and the Digitech Grunge.
My set up is a Washburn Dime 332 with light gauge strings and the factory pick-ups. My amp is a Peavey Rage 158. It's a 10 watt, but with this pedal it sounds like a 30. It's amazing. All those reviews you read that said you can't get softer sounds are wrong. You just need to use the volume setting on your guitar. If you turn it down low, you can get a blues tone out of it. Now this thing is built like a rock, I have a good size dent in my floor now from when I dropped it, but the thing still sings. It is a mini tank. Even though you get good battery life I would suggest you still get the AC adaptor. This pedal is perfect for any metal head! Don't waste you time on the other pedals. This one is the best you can get, and it's cheap too! Review: -Makes small amps sound huge, and huge amps sound... well just sound bigger. -Can get soft sounds out of it -Less expensive yet still as good -Built like a tank! -Gives you sounds of all good Metal Bands (Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Slayer, Metallica... etc.) -Excellent beginner/intermediate/advanced pedal.

The Grunge is Better,

This review is from: Digitech DDM Death Metal Analog Distortion Pedal (Electronics)
This pedal has it's place in metal, but I wouldn't use it for death metal, the Grunge, which I own, has a much more metal character that I would push tubes with. This pedal is decent but very thrashy in sound quality, shop around before you buy. Try other pedals at a local retailer, and bring your amp in to hear what you would REALLY sound like, then, make a decision, and come back.

Ok Distortion,
This review is from: Digitech DDM Death Metal Analog Distortion Pedal (Electronics)
I got this pedal a couple of years ago for my birthday, and, for the most part, I've been happy with it when I play it with guitars.
First off, you can't really produce much of what I would consider authentic "Death Metal Distortion", the distortion is kind of heavy, but is not much heavier than some of the stuff you can get from a normal distortion pedal. When I first got this pedal, it had an enormous amount of feedback, so much in fact that I had to turn the volume and master knobs on my amp to around 1 or 2. Thankfully, with time, the feedback was died out a bit. The sounds you can produce are decent, not great, but are good enough for $50. I'm not much of a guitarist (even though I fool around with it), I'm a quite experienced bass player, and I must say this pedal sounds terrible with basses. When you play notes in succession, its hard to hear whether you are playing a chord or whether you are playing separate notes as they all mesh together. Most notes are too low (especially when you play 6 string like I do) to decipher and end up sounding like garbage. I do not recommend for a bass player. Overall, its an okay pedal, kind of muddy though, good if you can't dish out for more expensive pedals, but it will do.
