In this free video tutorial, Paul Drew looks at the Black Distortion 2 pedal plug-in from Brainworx and Plugin Alliance. The Black Distortion pedal is based on the highly regarded ProCo Rat 2 pedal. This excellent pedal has been used on hit after hit. Paul starts off dialling in the right amount of distortion and filters the eq from the filter knob to make it sit just right in the mix.

Guitar stomp boxes are great for their durability and simplicity. Dial-in your settings, stomp on the switch and add new dimensions to your rig’s signature sound. The RAT 2 from ProCo Sound is the epitome of this idea- three knobs and a switch are all that stand between you and the heady distortion that helped shape iconic sounds of some of the greatest bands around the world.
