One of the most anticipated aspects of the "new pedal release" circuit is hearing what our buddy Andy has done with the unit in question. The answer to that for the ZIO Analog Front End + Boost is, well, everything. Listen to the intro track to hear the ZIO's effects on both guitar and bass in a recorded mix. That bass got punchy! Following the introduction, Andy proceeds to place the ZIO in virtually every possible location: directly pushing an amp, in front of an overdrive, behind an overdrive, in front of a distortion, behind a distortion, and even after a fuzz. Each time, he selects a preamp circuit that is a perfect fit for the application.
