I bought this pedal because I wanted a distortion tone that sounds like a fuzz stacked with an overdrive, but I also wanted to control the tone using the guitar volume knob. I haven’t used another pedal that does it better than this.
The Filter control at 7-9 o’clock give a gritty overdrive and 4-5 o’clock gives a muffy fuzz tone.
If you’re wanting something that is a harder distortion, but not heavy metal, then this is a good generic distortion that sounds great across the spectrum.
Rolling back the volume on your guitar cleans up the tone keeping the output at near consistent volume.
I play generic rock cover songs and church music, and this overdrive into a tube amp sounds great. You can’t not like it.
For church lately, though, I use a direct injection setup and I find that the highs come in a little too harsh for my taste. Still sounds good, just different.

I’m a bassist who owns 30+ pedals, and Pro Co RAT is one of my favorites. It’s a magnificent distortion that you can effortlessly transform into an exceptional bass distortion. If you’re a bassist looking for a really good distortion sound, this might be what you’re looking for.
