No mentions of the Danelectro Cool Cat CTO-1 Transparent Overdrive!?
SUPER cheap, truly transparent.

This makes my head explode: With the amp's line out, don't bother going into the Pod. It'll just be another AD/DA conversion

my friend put a bigger output transformer and a master volume.
it sounds amazing cranked (pinched and fuzzy), or at moderate volumes (OG style).
The original sound and more- love it.

Could someone compare and contrast the standard off foot blast, the hyper blast, the bomb blast, and the double bomb blast? Or was he joking? one foot blast: blast beat using one foot, snare and kick+hat alternating, Napalm Death style. gravity blast: or one handed drum roll + blasting, Origin styl...
