Our Take:
The MC401 Boost/Line Driver is an incredible utility pedal; simple, yet highly effective in mitigating any signal issues you happen to come across in your rig. A collaborative effort between CAE and MXR, the MC401’s circuit has been tried and tested, and delivers up to +20dB of volume, whether your sound needs a little facelift, or you need to kick your effects board up a notch.
MXR’s Take:
The Boost/Line Driver is simple in design but superbly effective in solving a variety of mismatched line level and signal conditioning problems that can occur when combining effects. The MC401’s circuit design has been used for years by CAE in the world’s best guitarist’s rigs to remedy these problems and rejuvenate the sparkle, punch and brilliance that can be lost. It can also be used as an ultra-clean boost (up to +20dB) for solos or to drive effects for more dynamics and sensitivity.
