Hot Mode: A special dual boost section placed both before and after the overdrive section, transforming it into a two-channel TS-based pedal. Space-Saving Design: Replace two to three pedals on your board, conserving valuable space while enhancing your sound capabilities. The new Antique Classic Drive takes customization to the next level, allowing guitarists to tailor every aspect of their pedal. Beyond the 61 combinations of color, faceplate, and knobs, even the smallest details are meticulously designed to reflect your personal style. One such detail is the intricate Greek key pattern engraved on the faceplates, adding a touch of elegance and sophistication. This level of customization ensures that each pedal is a unique masterpiece, perfectly matching the aesthetic and personality of its owner. Unlike many pedals that offer a boost function and some that allow choosing its position, the Antique uniquely positions the boost both before AND after the overdrive section simultaneously. Each boost is independently controllable, providing unparalleled flexibility and tonal shaping, effectively making it a dual-channel overdrive pedal. The switch between Normal and Hot mode can also be done with an external latching footswitch. This is ideal for use with looper switchers or when the pedal itself is not easily accessible, such as with multilevel pedalboards. WHAT'S BETTER THAN HAVING A BOOST? HAVING TWO! The new Antique Classic Drive introduces the innovative Hot Mode, a special boost section that transforms the pedal into a dual-channel overdrive. This feature consists of two independent boost sections: one for gain and one for volume, allowing for unprecedented control and versatility. Hot Gain: The gain boost in Hot Mode activates a boost before the overdrive section. This aspect adjusts the gain, providing a significant increase in distortion and saturation. It allows for a more aggressive and driven sound, ideal for solos and high-energy playing. Hot Volume: The volume boost in Hot Mode activates a boost after the overdrive section. You can adjusts the overall volume, giving you the ability to enhance the output level without affecting the gain. It is perfect for lifting your sound in the mix, ensuring clarity and presence during performances. This section is also capable of a volume cut. This ensures that you can maintain volume parity between the normal channel and the Hot Mode channel, even with different gain levels. Needs: 9VDC 50mA Center Negative
