Overdrive

Overdrive

Overdrive units distort the tone of an instrument by adding "overtones", creating a "warm" sound. To create a "dirty" or "gritty" sound, a unit further alters the tone by re-shaping or "clipping" its sound-waves so that they have flat, mesa-like peaks instead of curved ones. Distortion effects differ from overdrive effects in that that the former produces roughly the same amount of distortion at any volume. Overdrive units, on the other hand, produce “clean” sounds at quieter volumes and distorted sounds at louder volumes.

  1. Earthquaker Devices - Zoar Dynamic Audio Grinder
    Earthquaker Devices - Zoar Dynamic Audio Grinder
    Zoar is a medium-high gain discrete distortion (using only transistors; no opamps or diodes in here!) that has that touch sensitive amp-like quality to it that everyone craves. It has been finely tuned to create a highly tweakable hi-fi and modern sounding distortion, but with the ghosts of old school circuitry to deliver a grind that is both instantly familiar and delightfully unique.

  2. Kingtone - Blues Power
    Kingtone - Blues Power

    The Blues Power is a true transparent overdrive. It produces a full range, amp-like tone with responsive bass and treble controls, wide range drive control, internal switches for middle frequency adjustments, and a volume control with enough output to drive even the most stubborn tube amp. This is a mighty overdrive indeed.
