Need help deciding on which pedal to get.

Hello everyone,

Trying to decide which pedal to get the Boss Distortion DS-1 or the Boss Metal Zone MT-2, which one would sound more like say, a Mesa/Boogie Triple Rectifier's distortion. I have heard a Mesa Triple Rectifier with its distortion and I like the way it sounds, so im looking for something closer to that end of the spectrum. What do you guys think? Thanks!

I don't know a lot about kit (I'm poor and I've only been playing 9.5 months), but i bought a Zoom 505 II effects pedal and it is pretty wild... 36 banks (programmable) with like a zillion effects. It runs for under a hundred US$.
