No, there is no equalizer on the ME-50, though it does have the Tone Modify, but that's about it. I'll try to mess around with it some more, but what I meant was that it sounds really awful, like unprofessional. Of course distortion is "distorted"... thank you, Axl_rose. I hear Creed, P.O.D., 3 Doors Down, all my favorite bands on their distortion, and they don't sound anywhere near as horrible as mine does, to the extent that I think I might actually be missing something. Sure, studios have extra stuff to give it that sound, but isn't there something I can do with what I have? I'll work on it and see what I can find.
