Zvex Box of Metal Vexter Series Owned by Ian D'Sa of Billy Talent

This Zvex Box of Metal Vexter Series is Owned by Ian D'Sa of Billy Talent.

The Box of Metal is an aggressive high-gain pedal with a highly-effective built-in switchable gate which dramatically reduces noise and unwanted feedback. Its gain and tonal characteristics are somewhat similar to high-gain tube amplifiers that have been the staple of hard rock and metal sounds since the 80’s.

On the right, there is a true- bypass switch with an indicator LED to bypass the entire effect. On the left is a gate switch which is only effective when the pedal is on (the gate cannot be used separately). When the gate’s LED (on the left side of the pedal) is ON, the gate will be active whenever the pedal is turned on.

VOLUME: Sets the output volume of the pedal. Note that the LED on the RIGHT is for the BYPASS switch and the LED on the LEFT is for the GATE.

BASS: Sets the bass / sub-bass level.

MIDRANGE: Adjust to accentuate or scoop out mids.

TREBLE: Adjust for treble content. Use this in tandem with your amp’s presence and treble controls to get the precise top-end texture...the presence control is very important on your amp, if you have one.

DRIVE: Sets the amount of distortion. The Box of Metal™ does NOT clean up. This control goes from hard to very hard. It may crackle when turned...this is perfectly normal.

GATE: Adjust for your playing style. When fully clockwise, palm-muting will create an audible thump and bumping the strings will open the gate. Turn down to make the gate tighter. Gate is unaffected by other controls.
