Perfect for home recording practice and live performances this pedal gives you realistic amp tone and feel right on your pedalboard. The DC30 also offers a switchable pre or post-amp boost with adjustable gain adding more gain to your tone to drive the amp harder boosting mids like using an overdrive pedal would.
