Booster can be magic in pushing your amp or a dirt pedal. CTC has done is put their take in 4 classics in one pedal.
You get the pre from from the EchoPlex, the MXR Micro Amp, the DOD 250 Preamp which is a grittier take on the MXR and the ZVec Super Hard On which is a Rangemaster style, Tony Iommi , Brian May kind of booster.
The layout is volume, selector switch to chose which pedal clone you want. A button to give you 18v if you want more headroom and a button 2 choices of extra boost.
CONCLUSIONIt's a brilliant idea. You get a very clean sound you can use as an always on kind of pedal and 2 that are a real bonus to get the chime from a Strat or single coil and a real in your face sound for Metal or the the Brian May thing. Boosters are often
about feel and subtle tones that you have to actually play. Not like an OD
that can transfer fairly well on a video.
