Digitech Death Metal vs Digitech Metal Master

Yeah, can pick out the amp noise in the background, wonder if the amp itself at fault...Hydesg said:

I'm a drummer.
And an electronics/electical enthusiast. Was doing some research on tubed distortion pedals that I could try putting together and stumbled onto the Demonizer. LOL
I like the sound of it, very much so. LOL
Currently modding my group's rhythm guitarist's Metalzone MT2, screaming clarity and pronounced tone coming right up!!

immaculate distortion comes from the amp itself.

Just a hobbyist here. Besides, there's not much electronics when it comes to drums so the next best thing... well... I just can't leave the guitarists stuff alone. LOL 
Also, regarding Demonizer's supposed "noisiness">> I believe this is because it's a mostly analogue system.
Most modern digital effects pedals tend to have a noise masking subsystem to "silence" itself and improve the signal to noise ratio. That's cool till it starts masking some of the signal itself, that's why 16-bit digital emulation systems tend to sound sucky.
While for the demonizer (in the video at least), the guy did a demonstration where the tone of the guitar still rings out even in heavy distortion mode while in the likes of an MT-2 where everything sounds nasal and muddled.

The hum seems to get a tad louder when the guy boosted the pedal's input level to drive the tubes, perhaps it's the guitar or the pedal itself?subversion said:
For amps, I found this nice page to guide amp owners on star-grounding conversion to silence the hum.

The guy who made the site seems to detest digital effects a lot and has the following link in his custom pedals page. LOL

I dig death metal a lot...
But that's like... literal... what with the coffin shaped packaging and all.
Maybe it was the recording equipment, but it didn't sound all that hard hitting to me.
Gonna scoot over to T-rex's site.

i find the demonizer's clips most impressive, especially sinc they changed the clips a while back.. the frist few were a bit unimpressive.. the t rex bloody mary on the other hand, is a tad too bassy and does not have the tightness.. it looks cool though and the coffin case thing is nice...
check out the demonizer's clips on pedalgeek and on the website.. will give u a better idea of what to expect...
