UPDATE
that was one hell of a day but beside work and jogging i also got the 3 shootout videos done cause so many of you wanted to see this. ;-)
Here we go with Overdrive VS Barbershop, Fuzz VS Pink Flesh and Distortion VS Seventheaven.
i tried to use neutral settings with less eq and filter action.

Re: Empress - Multidrive is SICK!!!
How do you think it compare to the other high gain distortions you have reviewed in the past, I'm thinking about acquiring one and am def having a hard time deciding.

Its not a brutal pedal (from my point of view) but it has alot of rock n roll going on!

Sounds awesome!
You don't think it could do really high metal gain though?

So do you recommend the dominator for that type of sound? I think i'm gonna wait to see how Dr Sci Elements turns out but I'm def in the market for such a pedal.

AFAIK The Elements wont be an über brutal pedal aswell! On the brutal sound:
Toneczar Openhaus - Most brutal and over the top
Okko Dominator is a bit warmer and amp like
Triple Wreck - Best low end and also a doom fuzz side
Seventheaven - Best highs cutting without sounding fizzy...

Yeah Tweakers Galore, but keep in mind i tried to get them close sounding and there are many differences depending on pick attack running the pedals into an already driven amp or the SAG control on the fairfield barbershop for example...

Re: Empress - Multidrive is SICK!!!
of course, i'm not saying Multidrive can really replace them, BUT it could work as a cool substitution sometimes
or at least it sounds like it could
