I was considering picking one of these up because I can get it really cheap. My question is. can you drive the tube to the point of distortion for metal vocals like you can with other tube units? Since it only has one knob I wasn't sure.
Overall would it be a good buy for $300 cash out the door? In my tracking sessions I was going to use it for the following:
-Kick w/D112
-Acoustic guitar
-Bass DI
-Guitar cab
-Vocals
Then I was going to use my on board pres for the rest of a drum kit. What do you guys think>?

I don't think I would do it that way though. Instead I would use an stomp box or a guitar amp to distort the vocals. I use a Mesa-Boogie V Twin to do this and it works very well.

I agree with Kurt. get yourself a Proco Rat II for $65 and have Robert Keeley give it the 3 way mod. this will give you a versatile od/distortion for guitar, bass or vox
I was told that you will need a pad if you want it to distort. I
I was told that you will need a pad if you want it to distort. I'm looking to pick one up myself. I'm assuming that you must know someone who works at a music store to get The Brick for $300.
if not... would you mind telling me where?
