Pedal to replace MT-2 Metal Zone

[RolloTomassi]

Can you please recommend a pedal that sounds like the MT-2, but without a blanket over it? I need that loud, ballsy heavy distortion, but the MT-2 does not cut through and it's thin sounding. I need something that just lifts the blanket off the sound so to speak

hardwire metal distortion
electro harmonix metal muff

 

[Magicpad]

MI Megalith
Okko Dominator
Wampler Triple Wreck

ask some DIY for a Dr. Boggie. is a rectifier simulator in a box. it's sounds crushing and heavy!

 

[RolloTomassi]

That Wampler Triple Wreck sounds nice and so does the Metal Muff, I'll check those out.


btw the pedal is running into a clean Fender style amp, a compressor is used as a boost

you arent using the compressor with high gain pedals are you?
I know that when I use high gain pedals, I have to kick the compressor off...high gain is already compressed enough...

Barber Dirty Bomb...check one out.

forget using a single pedal for high gain overdrive.

use 2. a fuzz + A booster to shape the fuzz

Don't get rid of it yet before you try my settings:

(knobs are out of 10)
Level: 5
Low: 7
Mid Freq:4
Mid: 5
High:5
Gain: 8

Let me know if you like how it sounds. I promise it doesn't sound like a blanket over the amp with my settings.

Might be worth waiting for the bogner uberschall pedal..

Budget = EHX Metal Muff
Bestish = Amptweaker Tight Metal

 

[Mr. Limbic]

Amptweaker Tight Metal or Tight Rock for sure

Yep I use compressors with high gain pedals cause I'm good

 

[RolloTomassi]

The Triple Wreck looks like the clear winner, thanks ya'll!

 

[wundergussy]

Mod it?

 

[FuzzFaceJ]

lots of good pedal suggestions here, if you aren't afraid of trying another Boss, check out the Power Stack

Nothing can replace my MT-2.

I'm serious.

 

[Eclipseall]

ANYTHING sounds better than a metal zone.
