MXR DISTORTION plus + handbuilt clone DIY used as an overdrive in front of a Marshall JCM900, Gibson with EMG

A little demo of a pedal I built. A Distortion + clone used as an overdrive on a Marshall JCM900 4100 with TUNGSOL 6l6 STR tubes. Played with a USA Gibson Les Paul Custom Showcase Edition with 81 and 89 EMG pickups

hey , when you use it with an already dirty amp does it hum/hiss??

thanks

@darrylportelli All OD's will hiss and feedback if used with the gain maxed out on the amps distortion channel. SO when doing this (if your amp has a lot of gain and you just want to push it a little) Use the OD pedal as a clean booster, Level maxed and just a bit of gain (maybe 9 oclock or 10) Tone to like. This way you'll get the gain boost with controlable feedback .

hola man te acuerdas de mi soy el que me compre un jcm tsl 60 ya tengo varias cadenas de pedales como unos 4 y empiezo a notar que mete un poco de hum el ampli es normal eso?

[malrato7]

Hola, bueno eso es obvio, a manera de que divides la senal (con los pedales) se anade la posibilidad de traer mas ruido a la senal. Tambien pedales de gain, como distorciones, OD, compresors hasta los mismo wahs, traen ruido pues amplifican el ruido ya existente. La pregunta es can molestoso es ese ruido... Si es algo grabe, consigue un boss noise supressor y n todos los pedales de gain en el loop de este pedal. Eso limpia mi senal sin problemas. Pero se es normal.

[malrato7]

tambien tienes que diferenciar entre ruido o hum... El HUM o conocido como 60hz cycle hum es causado por algunos pedales, Es normal pero en algunos casos es demasiado molestoso. Mi solucion, es conecta tus pedales uno a uno hasta que encuentres el que causa el HUM.
