With high gain tones derived from the HD147® and Vetta II™ - the Line 6 Uber Metal has a tasteful array of brutal high-gain tones right out of the box. Forgot those other metal pedals that sound like a can of bees - the Uber Metal has real tone, like a hot-rodded tube amp being overdriven past 11.
Model Switch- Give this a flick to reconfigure the destructive power of Über Metal.
- Metal - creates screaming distortion, from heavy grind to molten metal! Bow down, infidels.
- Pulverize - gives you a distortion similar to a high-gain tube amp. Mmmm, it's warm and meaty!
- Insane - has more skin-peeling gain and sustain than anything else available. For the inner Samurai-shredder in all of us.
Level - This sets the output level. Higher levels will hit the amp or effect fed by the Über Metal will more signal level, giving your more volume.
Mid & Scoop - Mid chooses a frequency from 250Hz to 4kHz. Scoop then removes sound at this frequency, with maximum scoop at the fully clockwise setting. Turn it fully counter-clockwise for a slight mid boost.
Drive- This controls the amount of distortion created within your Über Metal. Especially when you've got it set high, you may need to use the Gate to tame unwanted noise.
Bass & Treble - Bass and Treble are controls for your low and high frequencies.
Gate:
- Off - Disables the Gate.
- Gate 1 - A soft and mild noise gate, self-adjusting to your current Drive knob setting.
- Gate 2 - A heavy, fast-clamping gate. Great for those aggressive metal chords and palm muting.
