The MXR Distortion+ is straightforward to operate, allowing you to quickly dial in a variety of distorted tones.

• Classic Blues Tones: Set the DISTORTION control low (e.g., 9 o'clock to 12 o'clock) and adjust the OUTPUT knob to drive the front end of your amplifier. This will produce a warm, overdriven blues tone.
• Early '80s Hard Rock: Max out the DISTORTION knob (e.g., 3 o'clock to full clockwise) for a powerful, saturated hard rock tone. Adjust OUTPUT to match your desired volume.
• Subtle Boost/Overdrive: For a cleaner boost with a touch of grit, set DISTORTION very low and OUTPUT to unity gain or slightly above.
