Looking to get a cheap distortion unit to make my recordings (Firepod into Mac) and to also practice without annoying girlfriend and neigbors - ya know, those late jam sessions...
I tried many units that I ended up selling, not because they were thrashy but because I didn't like what I was getting with those. I tried GT-6, POD, Sansamp PSA-1 (it was the best of all), Chameleon and Voodu Valve. Now, I have a chance to snag a Pro GAP for real cheap and I'm just wondering if it's gonna sound just like the Chameleon or the Voodu Valve. I do not have an open budget for this since I will be using the unit for my "rough" demos and practice at night. I tried the Chameleon and Voodu Valve paired with a power amp and it was decent, not overwhelming but very decent. But when plugged directly into my Firepod, it wasn't what I was expecting. I don't need effects, I want good crunch/distortion.
So, what do you suggest and/or, what do you think of the Pro GAP considering how I will be using this thing?
Thx
