Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
MXR’s EVH Modern High Gain is a distortion pedal with dedicated Gain and Output controls, three-band EQ, selectable bass cutoff, boost, and adjustable noise gate. Set Bass Shift to 80Hz for the stated tighter low-end option or 55Hz for the alternate lower cutoff, then refine the rest of the response with Bass, Mid, and Treble. The Boost affects the front end and final gain stage, while the Gate control lets you set its threshold for high-gain rigs and louder setups.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Setting separate bass, midrange, and treble controls around a high-gain distortion sound.
- Choosing between the 80Hz and 55Hz Bass Shift cutoff settings.
- Using an adjustable noise-gate threshold with high-gain pedal or amplifier setups.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Users who need a 9V DC center-negative power supply included with the pedal.
