| Wich one is do you think is the most underrated pedal? The one that you love to hate or just realize after a while is a really kick ass and useful pedal? For me it´s the LM-2 who works both like a linedriver and compressor in my pedalboard. |

Hi Shoegazers Anonymous
By Linedriver do you mean booster?
Or like an Hi-to-Low impedance buffer, to drive longer leads with less signal & treble loss?

Hi Dr.Bob!
I meant the second. I put it first in chain after my TU-2 with tone at 12 o clock and release and threshold at maximum - 5 o clock. With this setting it just let everything pass thru nicely without tonal loss or distortion. Off course after a short a/b test with my guitar straigtht into amp and after that thru my pedalchain to set level to the same level as if there was no chain - level around 2 o clock. The LM-2:s sweet spot is: the LM-2 allows little tone quality deterioration and low noise. (kopied from bossarea about the lm-2). After my first LM-2 there is another one. But it works as a compressor with settings: Level: max 5 o clock, tone 12 o clock, release 9 o clock and threshold at 9 o clock. With that setting it works like a soft compressor with a transparent and not too compressed sound. This pedal really kicks ass!

I'm with Shoegazers on this one. I've really been getting into my LM-2 a lot lately. But be careful how much praise you give it. PQ-4s were going for $100 boxed before they started getting the praise they deserve. Now look at em. 
Also I'd like to mention the MD-2. I think it gets passed over a bit too often. |

CS-2 incredibly useful compressor for keyboards, yet seems to get more attention from guitarists
LS-2 my favorite current production pedal which seems to be underrated |

| PH-2 Super Phaser- a lot of people don't like it because it's not a traditional sounding phaser, but I've always dug it. |

Most underrated BOSS-pedal?
