I'd like to check it in the store. When I do it (if it is available there), I'll write a note.

BTW, welcome to GN.]]> From Here to There Nuno https://guitarnoise.forum/from-here-to-there/boss-dyna-drive/#post-263016 https://guitarnoise.forum/from-here-to-there/boss-dyna-drive/#post-263011 Thu, 06 Sep 2007 17:04:50 +0000 From Here to There bentley https://guitarnoise.forum/from-here-to-there/boss-dyna-drive/#post-263011 https://guitarnoise.forum/from-here-to-there/boss-dyna-drive/#post-262980 Thu, 06 Sep 2007 12:56:59 +0000
As for some distortions that are quite common: Electro Harmonix Big Muff if you are into the dry scratchy distortion is quite nice. The digitech or boss Metal distortions are supposedly decent if you like powerchordsy metal.
In terms of overdrive: Behringer TO800, Digitech Bad Monkey, Boss Bluesdriver BD-2 are all nice units going by reviews and general consensus (and my own opinion on the behringer).

As for which is best for you, it depends on what kind of distortion you are looking for. Generally overdrive would be a somewhat lighter in grit than real distortion and is more suited for rock or bluesy sounds.]]> From Here to There Steph https://guitarnoise.forum/from-here-to-there/boss-dyna-drive/#post-262980 https://guitarnoise.forum/from-here-to-there/boss-dyna-drive/#post-262965 Thu, 06 Sep 2007 07:44:07 +0000
I have the Boss DS-1 and it is a half decent pedal, it is very simple and is good for getting a basic distortion that is somewhere in between a metal distortion and a heavy ac-dc style overdrive (although with an E.Q pedal I can get very close to a heavy metal sound). I also have the Boss Chorus Ensemble which is a very good chorus pedal as well (it has both mono and stereo outputs, which is not common), but is alot less user friendly. It's harder for me to explain that pedal because I don't use it too often (I really don't use chorus too much), but it is very nice sounding.

If you're looking for a good metal sound, maybe try out the Metal Zone pedals. If you're looking for something alot bluesier, than try out their overdrive pedals.]]> From Here to There Steve-0 https://guitarnoise.forum/from-here-to-there/boss-dyna-drive/#post-262965 https://guitarnoise.forum/from-here-to-there/boss-dyna-drive/#post-262955 Thu, 06 Sep 2007 05:46:38 +0000 From Here to There bentley https://guitarnoise.forum/from-here-to-there/boss-dyna-drive/#post-262955 https://guitarnoise.forum/from-here-to-there/boss-dyna-drive/#post-27853 Wed, 05 Sep 2007 06:02:47 +0000 From Here to There bentley https://guitarnoise.forum/from-here-to-there/boss-dyna-drive/#post-27853
