Mt2 Metal Zone (BOSS)... Sing??

Sorry I'm going to buy a new distortion pedal for my voice. I want to know if the MT2 Metal Zone is made to sing with a terrfic voice or if it is only for guitar use. Oh and for those who have one, would you tell me what kind of metal band do you play (sing)?
Thank you

I'm pretty sure most,if not all distortion pedals are engineerd for guitars.You may do better to for a vocal specific distortion contained on multi rack units like tc-helicons or even behringers if your down on cash.

The only distortion box I could point you towards would be an electro harmonix muff pi.Its used often as a bass overdrive as well so I wouldn't be surprised if it suited vocals as well.But you may really want to look into vocal specific units.

try out some stuff at a local music store.Who knows,the metal zone might work really well...at least you would have a great guitar distortion pedal even if it sucked for vocals(I'm assuming your looking for a 'demon of the fall' voice?).

Mics output low Z signal and guitars output Hi Z.

SO running a mic into a distortion pedal is not a good idea.

You can stick FX processors over vocals buy using the insert points of Fx send and returns on a desk. This will bring the mics lowZ signal up to line level.

Some bits of kit are made to plug directly into a microphone.

You may be better checking out something like a Digitech Vocal processor . I had one and it is OK. There is also a newer more expencive version here . I think the differences is that the latter also has a USB port.

A guitar stomp box can be used in conjunction with a desk however the impedance will be mismatched which will mean the sound quality is sub-optimal.

yeah thanx,its cause I just went to a big music store and the guy just said to me to use this pedal to make heavy metal sound, and well of course I want to do a big brutal demon sound lol.

I that case Id defiantly go for the Digitech 300 deal.

With that you can pitch shift down an octave and add distortion.

I think there is even a preset called "Monster"

yeah thanx that's what I thought, the V300 from digitech is quite expensive though, but if thats the only choice I guess that I'll go fort it, thanx a lot for your hlep Dr.Simon I really appreciate

Check out eBay mate, I let a nearly new V300 go for about 100 bucks 6 months ago and I don't imagine they have gone up in price !!


Good luck !
