This pedal is amazing. If you are looking for a great overdrive this is your choice. Simply awesome. Good construction, nice playability, great desing and colour....Sounds fantastic. Whatever is your style you Will love it. Probably because Keeley must pay to Mr. D. & Mr. M., this amazing pedal is expensive...but WTH...you Will have the best overdrive pedal in the market.

Two Characters

Nice idea allowing you to stack two totally different drives in one pedal. Dan's fuzz is nice and silicon bright, not germanium squelchy, cleans up nicely when you roll back and goes full grunge when you push it. Micks is of course more of a tubescreamer with way more middle presence and outrageous volume but not as much drive-gain. In series they react very nicely and being able to toggle their order ( DtoM or MtoD ) gives you plenty of scope. I put mine before a plexi-like OD which gives me six distinct drive sounds. Drivetastic.

Great Boost/Drive Combo

Bought this after seeing on TPS and to save on my board. Whilst on the expensive side for drive pedals it makes up for the price by giving great versatility and can easily do the job of multiple drives with some tweaking and using different combinations.

The boost side gives a nice push to mids and could be pushed to take clean to a solid overdriven sound though this is not how I use it. Though again this highlights the versatility of this pedal.

The Drive side offers a wide array of overdrive, distortion and even a fuzz like element. I use it to get somewhat RAT like tones but with a bit rounded and through some noodling you can get a slew of great rhythm/lead tones.

Using both sides is where the pedal really shines as they compliment each other perfectly. A great means of getting a solo boost or just a solid drive sound depending on your settings.

Overall, greatly satisfied with this, no real drawbacks, if I were to say anything it is that the switches can be a bit close at times but that saves space on a board.

Dan here, Mick here, hello!

The D&M Drive is even more than I expected. The Boost side is way better than my Archer Ikon (klon) so I sold it. The Drive side is versatile with a huge range of overdrive to distortion. I use the Drive side set with the gain pretty low for rithm OD and kick Mick's side into it and works awesome! Recommended!
