USED GREAT EASTERN FX / DESIGN-A-DRIVE (Parallel import) [08]

Op-amp based classic overdrive

The Design-A-Drive is based on a classic op-amp based low or medium gain overdrive. The unique "Width" and "Edge" controls allow you to reshape (design) the frequency response of the circuit to suit any setup, allowing you to intuitively create a wide range of sounds.

We often hear users complain that they want a little more fatness or too much low end depending on the guitar or amp they are using, but we recommend this overdrive to those users who are feeling a little bored. Edge" is an overdrive with a wide range of tones!

The "Edge" controls the top end of the frequency spectrum, simultaneously adjusting two separate filters (a gentle treble roll-off and a more powerful cut in the high presence region) that affect the aggressiveness of the hard clipping diodes in the circuit. Together, these three functions do exactly what their names suggest. They allow you to adjust the exact amount of byte, grit, and brightness you need.

The "Width" does exactly what its name implies. This six-position rotary switch reshapes the midrange response of the pedal, gradually lowering the midrange peak and adding bass as you move from "Thin" to "Fat." This control allows you to instantly create a tone while specifying the frequency spectrum in which the amp will be pushed.

The "Gain" and "Level" controls are designed to be equally useful and versatile. With the gain turned down, there is still enough level to allow the pedal to function as a powerful tone shaper and clean boost, either on its own or in combination with other drives and fuzzes.
