Which would be meaningless if it didn't sound great. It's extreme WYISIWG for a pedal, and it's brilliant in its simple way. Need to tweak it? All the controls are right on the top, no tiny twiddly toggles or hold-this-press-that voodoo. The current status is visible at a glance. The importance of this feature (which seems at first a gimmick) is so self-evident it's easy to overlook until you play with it awhile: you just never have to guess or remember where the knobs are set.

And then there's its two-fold headline trick: you can (ridiculously easily) save 30 presets (hundreds if you connect MIDI, which you totally don't have to do), AND the sliders are motorized so they instantly jump to the active settings when you change patches. The spaciousness of the layout keeps all the controls big enough and far enough apart to access quickly. Then it gets deceptively complex, with four pushbuttons for further options (complexity dramatically eased by backlit rings to indicate active mode): midrange pre- or post-gain, 3 bandwidths for midrange "Q", a silicon or germanium clipping diode to add dirt to whatever else is going on, and an open/full fuzz or a gated/sputtering fuzz. It's big, and it's deceptively simple, with six big sliders for infinite variations of gain, bass, parametric midrange, treble, and volume.

(See the Anderton demo for living proof.) But it may actually be a good value proposition, if the proud new owner divests himself of other drives it can demonstrably replace. So at the moment, it's the Chase Bliss Preamp MkII Automatone - which, on the face of it, is Too Much Money. Inevitably, my favorite is always the most recent I've acquired. It is a bunch of the overdrives you mention all in one with programmability.Not cheap but continuously satisfying! 3 I got the Chase Bliss Preamp MKII recently. Looking for my next drive, what's your poison? 2
PARAMETRIC MIDRANGE PEDAL DRIVER
Conspicuously missing, I've never tried the Blues Driver or the Timmy. Klon (DIY), Electras (Earthquaker and DIY), Bluesbreakers (King of Tone and DIY), Nocturnes (Brain and Atomic Brain), FET amp-alikes (Box of Rock, Formula 5, and DIY), et al (Deco, Fuzz Face, and various other DIY pedals). It can also be used in eliminating extraneous noises.This device also offers feedback prevention, tonal enhancement, and output frequency correction, as it can be used to boost or cut the peaks and dips to flatten frequency response.I've tried most of the major OD families: Tubescreamers (Fulldrive and DIY), Rats (DIY), "Boominess" reduction, this device can be used to precisely remove excessive resonance that can create a ''boomy'' sound.

This Parametric Equalizer offers a wide range of applications. P160KN-0QC15B10K variable resistors are used to control the equalization of the device. We also used three TL074CN is a quad low-noise JFET-Input general-purpose operational amplifier, 14-Pin DIP. MAX1044CPA+ is a voltage regulator, switched capacitor, and voltage converter in one, TL072CP is a JFET-input, low noise dual op amp. This parametric equalizer is mainly comprised of voltage regulators, op amps, resistors(fixed and variable), and capacitors. The amplitude of each band can be controlled, and center frequency can be shifted, widened, and narrowed. This devices allow audio engineers to control the parameters of the internal band-pass filter sections. Parametric Equalizer is an electronic multi-band variable equalizer device used in sound recording and live sound production.
