- Love it or hate it, the Metal Zone has a place in many a chug masters heart. But don't take my word for it, try it out for yourself. Just don't plug it into the input of an amp, doofus..

Metal Zone needs either a Fuzz or Overdrive right before it. Or just run it in effects loop.
My ancient Metal Zone always has a place on my board, it's the 'Slaughter In The Vatican' tone in a box, everyone was always too much of a diptard to EQ the damn thing correctly.
The Metal Zone is not that bad, specially if you like that Panterish Solid State Randall kind of distortion.
It can definitely do that.
@@TaylorDanley it can only do that
The metal zone has been on some classic metal records.
That Preamp pedal just makes everything sound good, It brought new life to my valvestate 150.
Good on ya for the Valvestate. Such a great amp. I have used some emulations and want a real VS8100 someday. What a beast haha
I keep seeing the valve state come up in the comments, is there a revival happening?
@@TaylorDanley I'm not sure. I know they were hated on for a long time, they might be after that video that Kristian Kohle made. "The youtube effect" is crazy, before Ola you could find a metal zone for under 40 bucks used.
@@DarrenWaters75 I know. I bought a Desth Metal pedal for like 40 bucks, and now they’re at least twice that much
Metal Zone is the best pedal ever! All you really need is is just a cab, power amp, metal zone, and that's it! Should be enough for the rest of your life.
That's probably one of the best metal zone demonstration I have seen in a while
To me the 6L6 emulation really stood out on that Joyo. I’ve actually never had a Metal Zone but I’ve been GASsing for a Waza Craft model since they came out. Great demo, maybe I’ll just pick one of these up after all!
I'm pretty underwhelmed with mine compared to the regular one
Funny how that can beat some of the tones from other videos you have. It's still valid in 2021. For me using a tube crunch channel, boosting it with a metal zone, it sounds really good that way, much like Cannibal Corpse used to do. Use what works 🤘
Yeah, it definitely beats out some of the stuff I've tried! I'll have to try it as a boost, I don't think I've ever done that before.
@@TaylorDanley It could work great on your slightly lower gain Krank amps, I run gain on like 2 or 3, then use maybe 9 or 10 o'clock on the gain for the Metal Zone and it sounds pretty good! Makes me think back to the 90s and go.... Maybe we didn't sound all that bad?!
@@KPGuitarStudios that’s a good idea 🤔 I’ll have to try that at some point
@@TaylorDanley A quality mix of tube + solid state is literally what we all want, we just aren't willing to say it out loud 😜
A Ghost of TD noted inside the Nightmare on Elm Street poster 😲
I like to use mine as a parametric midrange boost in front of an already-distorted amp channel on something with medium/high-ish gain, like the OD2 channel on a Valvestate VS100H, a Mesa Dual Caliber, or the blue channel on a 5150 III. The active EQ controls make it extremely tricky to dial in the highs without getting too much fizz, and the pedal has an almost uncontrollable amount of gain on tap, but that's part of the fun.
I start somewhere around gain at 8:00, bass between 9:00-10:00 to taste, mids around 3:00, mid frequency wherever it meshes best with the amp's sweet spot, highs between 11:00 and 1:00, and the volume dimed. Back off the amp gain a little bit and otherwise dial it in as you normally would, and enjoy the gnarly chug-chuggas.
I think it's more than awesome that you can go with that small rig in your gigbag with your guitar and play directly to P.A. in most venues without needing to move heavy A.F. amplifiers and cabs.
4:48 Shit man you nailed ALL pinch harmonics
Open up the Metal Zone, take your snips, and clip that capacitor. Instant joy.
Wait.... what? How? Why? Please elaborate
@@turgis0n Snip the C35 cap and its more usable.
That intro man, always got me XD Great video btw!
Thanks! 🙏
Wow this is a cool demo. You managed to get some tones much more useable than I had ever gotten .
Nice job!👍👍
Wow, that sounds very good once you dial it in!
So the real question this brings up is Taylor just really damn good at dialing in tones or does the Metal Zone really not suck? :) Great video as always man. \m/
Haha, thanks! I think I always dial in a similar-ish tone and either the gear gets in the way, or just doesn't let me do it.
Both. It's really not bad at all if you use it similar to how he has it setup in here
Achievement unlocked: METAL ZONE RUclips video publicly posted.
All jokes aside, you got some pretty respectable tones going there.
It sounds brilliant as a preamp, that's the way I use it
I like the MetalZone sound a lot. It's not for everything but it has a place. I particularly dug when you turned the boost on. Damn those chugs are so saturated and huge.
Personally the EL84 emu sounded real nice there. There was some extra tube grit and coloration that I would probably use. Still need to grab that Joyo box of goodness.
THE MetalZone was one of the first dirt boxes I got probably 15 years ago and I still love it. Run one into a Marshall DSL combo with moderate EQ settings and a boost, you will love it!!!
And that 7 string is a monster here. Hot damn. :p
Cheers man \M/
Yeah, that little Joyo pedal comes in real handy sometimes! Thanks for the comment dude \m/
Put it in front of a dimed off two channel dual rectifier as a boost and enjoy the dry attack with the saturation, this will be my tone for ever, plug that Mesa into a Greenback cab for even more dry attack or even blend it with a v30 cab to balance out the fizz.
Is there any famous bands who did a record with a metal zone ?
Early Cannibal Corpse albums used it
I was looking for videos on the best budget amps and got distracted by the metalzone
I like running it in the FX loop and driving it with a Demon 2 or a GrindR
Great video man,I like the mt2...imo....just pull the gain back to 12 o clock...and dial it in..
Yep, I had a very similar approach!
The 7 string sounds like it could capture the tone of the Death Metal band Undeath if you set it a certain way.
I've used the medal zone for many years and I like it !! The secret to make it sound good is EQing it right to your guitar !! It takes time !!😁👍
if you use the metalzone in the loop on the NS-2, you can turn the gain down even more, and put that boost in front of an amp's clean channel, and then run the NS-2 in the loop, clicking the NS-2 to trigger the MT-2 in and out of the signal path and just always leave it on.
a good trick is to tone down the 5k frequency
What were the metal zone settings?
the first minute of the video has too much camera switching action...wow.
I luv my metal zone!!!
I love the M-zone on the axe fx. Maybe I'm weird.
Fx loop way to go
I PROUDLY own an MT-2-3A... 🤘
Poor metalzones are so misunderstood.
Another mistake made by guitarists over the years it was trying to run this pedal into a clean channel of an amp. This pedal sounds awesome plugged into a power amp.
People hate everything on the internet. You cant please them. I think the pedal is bad ass.
Put the Metal Zone into the FX loop
Did you watch the video?
@@MetalZoned (I'm being silly. The first thing anyone says about these pedals is "But the FX loop!")
@@michaelfrancisco7238 👍 didn't get the sarcasm.
do what ola did the other year and put in the effects loop of your amp and use it as preamp
That's exactly what he did, mate. 😁 He ran it into the Joyo, which was loaded with an EL34 amp model. Well, sort of. Take it as an alternative to what Ola did. After all, we're all roaming in the digital realm, aren't we?!! 😉
the mt-2 really needs more credit than it currently gets! The damn thing rocks when you know how to use it,
I have a 3 piece Prog Metal band doing the 26 tunes I wrote usually I change my sound for every part of a tune ... intro, verse, chorus, mid 8, bridges, solos etc. I use 2 boards linked with a total of 72 pedals. My approach is simply ...why not treat my live presentation with the detail and variation one would present with a Post produced recording. I come from a straight Prog Rock background but have adoptive and blended all modern Metal approaches as well. There is no reason modern styles can not be applied to the approach Yes, King Crimson etc. used. Without a keyboard player things like a Doom pedal thing for a bridge followed by using a high gain shred pedal for a double time part where I am playing triplets at 220 bpm make sense. The Metal Zone and even the Metal Core can be very effective. It is all about using them where they fit. They are musical colors. A pedal used to shred may be hopeless to play a flat picked part of a tune and the reverse is true. One needs a selection of dirt pedals, low gain, medium gain, high gain and extra (Metal) high gain. You should add a few fuzz pedals as well. Why get boxed in ..to one tone, one Metal genre ..take the best of all and do what every great band did. Create your own.
Wow, kudos. That's a lot of work, but if you can pull it off more power to you!
I purchased a metal zone online last few days , but I got scammed by the seller . I get brick instead of peadal .
Bummer bro..assholes
That's mega shitz man. :( Scammers should be the object of Cannibal Corpse's first 3 album's lyrics
That sucks dude, sorry to hear!
Sounds really good in the fx loop..I think its more of a preamp..got my revv g3 and the boss went back to the box..but love my metal zone..I have had 3 of them over the years
They're great!
Put compressor in front, boss super chorus and delay after your metal zone, turn on all at once during live gig and you will never se your band again. I promise it work. You will be laughing or crying and your band will hide under stage in shame..
Sounds good with my bass.
Where can I find more about TMD pedal that you use?
And btw, say hello to your Kelly, you're not showing her enough lately.. is she ok? 🤔😃
Kids, this is how a IR can f*cking SAVE YOUR TONE.
They need to know!
Nice Vypyr.
Boss MT2 My 1st Distortion Pedal 1994 ' At That Time All Pedal Always Set In Front Bcoz Combo Amp no send return so the 1st Y2K I Try My Cousin Setup Metalzone Boss MT2 As Preamp *Return Marshall JCM800 Half Stack And Sound Pretty Good.... Nice Setup And Review With New Modern Setup " Joyo I.R Pedal.... Congrats T.D
Wheres your ltd ec 256?
Unleash the black metal bees!
The ns-2 was a mistake need to hear the bees
The internet mostly gives the mt2 a bad name. I can only assume these opinions come from the impatient amd tone deaf. I slam the front of my 6505 mh on low gain crunch and eq the fx loop. Sick metal tone that makes the hair stand on my neck! Get the waza and take some time to dial it in. Dont listen to the negative hype!
I've had my metal zone since 1996 and it sits in my draw of crap. You can get some decent tones out of it... But it still sounds like a pedal and can't compete with high gain amp distortion.
I bought my Metal Zone in 1996. But I got rid of it years ago. Not to knock it. I loved it for many years
Nissssssssssssssssssce 🍻
Metalzone is million times better sounding than a HM2! You need to do a Boss Metalizer vid!
🤔 It's like it was sent here from the future by someone of the past!🧬
I love my Metal Zone pedal.
👍👍
All the video make me made me shame that I used this pedal
Se nota que no sabes controlar el pedal metal zone 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Awesome!
