Description

The Megalith Delta high-gain distortion is a design like no other. All of the tone of the MI Amplification Megalith Beta 180W amplifier distilled down to stompbox form by none other than the designer himself. The Megalith Delta contains all of the tightness and heavy bottom-end giving you that complex and sophisticated signature Megalith tone.

From Michael Ibrahim:

“So many amp-in-the-box designs leave so much behind. It takes years of R&D to truly understand the variables behind great high gain tones. But by designing the amplifier from the ground up, I was able to really grasp how to make a complex, sophisticated high gain sound that kept all the nuances, huge bottom end and the clarity and character of the top end. Without this knowledge, it is very hard to capture all of the feel and tone that, as a guitarist, we come to connect with in our amplifier. Factors such as operating points, dynamic range, scaling of clipping thresholds, output impedances, and intrinsic capacitances due to things like the miller effect etc. all went into the design of the Megalith Delta. It is not a standard JFET copy of a preamp circuit, but for a design that captures the power of the Megalith Beta amplifier.”

the highest gain! super pedal!

it's a great pedal. It's not only great for pedal, but in conjunction with other tone shaping pedals like eq, compression etc. it shines through brilliantly. rest assured, the solo will always come out on top. I experimented on it a bit to see if I can get a big distortion wall of sound, somewhat like Linkin Park had in Hybrid Theory and Meteora, I got pretty close. Very solid pedal. The price isn't too low. But trust me, this is a must have in your pedal arsenal specially if you are a music producer!
