I know with a sound processor you can overcome other uncommon parameters like the exact amps metallica used, or exact pickups... i have gotten close to the sound, but not close enough... it's either something with the preamp choice or the gain. Equaliser settings may hold the answers too

In what order should I place my zoom multi-effects pedal and my Boss Distortion pedal on stage to produce the best sound?

Distortion before the zoom. Unless you want to use just the compressor and noise reduction from zoom then to distortion pedal, but then any modulation effects will sound weird.

What Distortion Pedal does Mick Thomson Use?

I'm not 100% sure on this, but i know he uses mainly boss pedals...., and that on the "all hope is gone" album he uses Boss metal zone, and MD-2 mega distortion. He may use others, but I'm pretty sure he uses these two.I'm not 100% sure on this, but i know he uses mainly boss pedals...., and that on the "all hope is gone" album he uses Boss metal zone, and MD-2 mega distortion.

Does the Boss DS-1 pedal work good with a Peavy amp?

The Boss DS-1 Distortion Pedal is an all-around good piece of equipment. Although it is on the inexpensive side, it still produces a solid tone that can be dialed-in with your amp to get everything from a lightly crunchy overdrive to a higher-gain distortion. Kurt Cobain and many others have used the orange pedal as an additional overdrive box to supplement their amplifier distortion. It will work as well with a Peavey amp as it will with anything. What it really comes down to is your own taste. As with any pedal, it will combine its own tones with the amp's sound to produce the final distortion tone. Either way, it's a good pedal (especially for the price) and it's worth experimenting with.


When i turn the gain up on my amp full it produces lots of static but when its down on 20 percent it produces hardly any static at all why is this?

Do you mean turning it down to 20% overall gain or 20% from full gain? Well, either way the answer is that gain is distortion. Distortion is amplifying your signal until it clips/distorts. Whenever you have a lot of distortion, it is amplifying the ground noise on your guitar that you wouldn't hear normally without it being amplified by distortion. Just get a noise gate, like the Boss NS-2 or MXR Smart Gate and you can have all the distortion you want with no hissing noise because it eliminates the sound below a certain decibel that you set.

What is a good guitar pedal to get a good metal sound with an echo super heavy distortion and a long lasting sound?

A digital distortion pedal will sound better with analog delay than an analog distortion one because of too much warms added to the sound making it mushy and not crunchy enough. A sustain pedal adds a long lasting sound by squeezing down the sound and adding further crunch to your notes/cords. Distortion pedals: digitech, boss and danelectro make good metal type pedals. stay away from fuzz or "big muff" type pedals. any analog delay pedal: boss or cheap pedal will work. compresssor/sustain pedal: boss, frantone, alesis, sqeezer, miranda. you want more of a hard-knee type that is more extreme, not like electro harmonix or bbe. spend money on this!!
