The gain and volume sliders interest me none and I always have them set to standard, but if you're looking for a volume or gain boost feature, it's got you covered. I also recently started using 2 amplifiers and the 2 outputs on this pedal gave me not only the perfect opportunity to split the signal without having to buy additional gear but also apply the EQ to both signals.

To elaborate, not too many pedals have a full TEN band EQ and the fact that this one does makes a world of difference, you can adjust and tweak the EQ to perfection, no quality loss in the signal, no unwanted noise. I use this EQ for a mid boost and high pass filter on my guitar to cut through the other instruments and be clearly audible, and it serves its purpose well beyond my expectations. This is the one pedal that's in my signal chain no matter what. I'm very disappointed with the service offered by MXR. Obviously the quality of the components used by MXR there is not high enough in order to hold not even a year of light use (in studio, I didn't even tour with it!).Īfter doing some research, I discovered a lot of forums posts where multiple users were reporting identical or very similar problems with this very same pedal. They want 100€ in order to repair it! (60% of the price!). The response from MXR: the problem is caused by wear and therefore no covered by the Guarantee. As I still had Guarantee (one year left), I sent the pedal back to Thomann and they sent it back to MXR. Also 4 of the LEDs were not working properly. To my surprise, when I wanted to use it again I discovered that one of the bands (the 8k) was producing crackles and noise depending on its position. I bought it exactly 2 years ago, but for the last year I haven't used it at all as I have other EQs/Preamps. At the beginning, as long as it worked as it should, the pedal was actually great. I would advice everybody against buying this product. EDIT 7/OCT/ 2020: I just got the pedal back from Thomann and to my surprise MXR did indeed repair it without added cost, so I have to take my words back and say that I am indeed very satisfied!
