Well, since you're asking us to guess, either not very at all or really retartdedly loud. It sounds loud though, and the feedback is pretty awesome. It has a cool texture to it- it sounds large and unfriendly.

Re: Metal Muff as a boost.
Loud enough to totally drown out the monitors. I could just barely hear the click. These Yamahas get pretty fucking loud too for nearfield monitors. The Metal Muff does some pretty fucked up things to the overall tone. Fucked up things that I like. It turns the characteristically smooth Recto into an abrasive bastard with intent to maim. Which the ONLY thing I dislike about the Recto is how mellow and smooth it sounds. Fixed that.

Re: Metal Muff as a boost.
Excellent excellent. Now, I have no experience with the Metal Muff. I'd figure a normal Big Muff into a Recto would be a smooth, bassy thing- just a big wall o' fuzz, basically. What channel/mode was the Rec on?

Vintage Red.
The Metal Muff isn't really related to the Big Muff. It's a standard metal pedal. Like an MT-2 but without the things that make an MT-2 an MT-2. According to some dude on HCAF (like 4 years ago), the Metal Muff actually contains the entire Digitech Grunge circuit but with a whole bunch of extra shit around it.

Re: Metal Muff as a boost.
Totally random, not really related question for you, Curtis- how are you doing your reamping? Do you have a "proper" reamp box? DI in reverse? Running from the line out on your inyourface and damn the consequences?

Re: Metal Muff as a boost.
Sounds pretty gnar, a bit midsquashy on its own, but doesn't come across as powerfully so with the rest of the mix. I always meant to check out the MM circuit, but still haven't gotten around to it.
