Blackstar Dept. 10 2ch Valve Distortion/Preamp FX Pedal with USB&DI out

The Dual Distortion is the "most metal" model in the Dept. 10 lineup, capable of dishing out fire-breathing high-gain sounds. But it's not just a versatile distortion pedal, it's also a world-class valve recording preamp that can act as the tonal centrepiece for your pedalboard! With 2 footswitchable channels and 3 crunch/overdrive voices alongside a crystal-clear clean mode, there's also Blackstar's patented ISF tone-shaping control, a 3-band EQ, low-latency USB & XLR outputs and Dept. 10’s proprietary 'Cab Rig' simulator technology. It does a lot!
