Why didn’t you guys tell me . . .

. . . that putting an SD9 in front of a (dirty) 2203 would be that nasty?

I mean, this is all happening digitally, in my HX devices, but, DAMN.

SD9 is such an under-appreciated pedal!

SD9 is such an under-appreciated pedal!

What’s it sound like? Or kinda sound like? I’ve been looking for a kickass distortion pedal. High gain?

I’m not a fan of the DS-1.

I've always wondered how the SD-9 is different from a TS-9 but all the YouTube videos I've watched about it are like "it's not mid-boosted and has a different flavour of clipping"... okay, but HOW? WHY?

Finding the right boost for a JCM800 is part of the fun.

Are we talking about the "digital" Land of Make Believe -or analog IRL?

How do you mean? I’ve only ever seen YouTube videos about the analog pedal; no experience with the pedal IRL personally.

Helix patches are not really representative.
You may like the results but it’s not the same and you can’t experience the analog devices via Helix models.

Not sure how you missed it, SD9 retired my 808 about 4 decades ago lol.
Still using it.

Notable users Landau, Scott Henderson.

Great to leave as always on boost, can get into fuzz territory, tone control mostly run off to it gets screechy fast. But it is a crunch better maker.

This will show the difference to ts9

I've always wanted to plug into a SD9 and try it for the Landau connection, but I've never come across one, except for playing a show with a band where the bass player had two set up on his board.
