Woozle’s Review:

This thing was a great addition to my old pedalboard. When all I needed was a nice clean boost for a solo, the left side did that nicely. When I wanted to dial in just enough OD to hit the front of my amp hard enough to distort when pushed, but not so hard that I could roll off the volume and ring out nice and clean, well, the right side of this pedal had me covered. A great 2-in-1 unit!

About this item:

MC402 Boost/Overdrive
Dynamic overdrive/distortion.
Sensitive and responsive to touch and picking dynamics.
Up to +20dB of uncolored clean boost.

The MC402 Boost/Overdrive offers the combination of a simple dynamic overdrive and an independent clean boost circuit all in one compact pedal. The overdrive section is truly "classic", adding warmth, sustain and punch, without colouring your sound. It can go from a bluesy, slightly overdriven sound to full-metal crunch with a twist of the gain knob.

The MC402 also cleans up nicely when you roll back your guitar volume, making it extremely touch-sensitive and responsive to picking dynamics, without becoming thin sounding. The boost circuit alone is a bonus, as it is the exact same circuit CAE has used for years to solve a wide variety of signal conditioning problems in major guitar systems.

The MC402's high-quality components provide quiet operation and trouble-free interaction with other pedals on your board. In keeping with the CAE tradition, the design is simple and straightforward, with a minimum of controls: only what is necessary to do the job.
