This pedal is perhaps one of the most hyped ever – which is why it was the first in our list to turn into a plug-in using our neural network tech. Is it worth paying nearly $10k for an original pedal? The debates will rage on, but in the mean time, you can download the next best thing, for free to use in your DAW.
What we can say is that this pedal sounds absolutely amazing, with a „transparent“ overdrive that starts off subtle and then turns into crunchy but crisp distortion when pushed to its limits, that manages to preserve the original characteristics of the sound thanks to a very clever circuit. It’s right at home as part of any guitar tone stack, but also adds character to synths, drum machines, or even vocals.
