Good question, and sorry I haven't gotten....... Good question, and sorry I haven't gotten back to you.<br /><br />I didn't think so. I've used it as a standalone (pre effect), as a post effect boost, and stacked with a treble booster. It's bloody loud though.<br /><br />Standalone boosts:<br />https://scontent.fmel1-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/10806287_809008765828462_6912281348847980912_n.jpg?oh=00697dd16b907459dbd81870c007361c&oe=5989A420<br /><br />https://scontent.fmel1-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/10635733_809008825828456_875142163059547258_n.jpg?oh=ca6d1fc8b2c155b882bfa7a2d2895b97&oe=599A7189<br /><br />Brian May Treble Booster into Crackle Not Ok.

Then you can use the new pot to alter the gain of the stage, and the original 1M pot to alter the signal level going into the stage. Personally the crackle never bothered me anyway, I've never altered the level in the middle of a song.IvIarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08416945174853142251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6847048658257278783.post-40646247604332603692014-03-20T09:50:45.936+00:002014-03-20T09:50:45.936+00:00This is not an improvement on the SHO because even...This is not an improvement on the SHO because even on the minimum setting the amount of boost is too much for some people, even for me, and I play LOUD. Of course if the purpose is to punish an amp and everybody in the room then okay. But for just doing a simple boost in a dense mix of musical instruments on a rehearsal or live, it will be to loud, even with the pot on it's start position. Just so you guys know. That being said, it sounds great to me.<br />But nothing is quite like a SHO with a Zetex brand BS170.Cortexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09516907072718026623noreply@blogger.com
