➍ ERNIE BALL HARNASSES THE
POWER OF EXPRESSION WITH
THE EXPRESSION OVERDRIVE
➍
The Ernie Ball Expression Overdrive comes in a
beautiful gold enclosure and features a full-featured
overdrive pedal in a handy expression-type format.
Three knobs sit on the front face of the pedal—
Drive, Tone and a handy Boost control that kicks the
pedal’s dirt into high-gear. The footpedal controls a
Mix parameter, for easy integration into any rig. The
pedal is also housed in a smaller pedalboard-friendly
format so it fits on the most crowded boards.
➎ JUPITER FX GETS HEAVY
WITH THE GAINSAW DELUXE
➎
The Deluxe version of the Gainsaw invokes
two Gainsaw circuits in one, drastically
opening up the pedal by adding Tone, Gain
and Feedback controls, as well as the option
to engage feedback separately. Having two
high-gain fuzz pedals in series makes for an
ultra-saturated fuzz experience that makes
mincemeat out of any amplifier in its way, while
the Feedback control adds in some interesting
textures not normally associated with fuzz.
➏ COG EFFECTS GETS DOUBLELOW WITH THE T-70
➏
The future of analog octave effects is here,
courtesy of the Cog Effects T-70. Featuring two
separate circuits (two T-35s), the T-70 features
two individual parallel effects loops for each
channel. The desired channel is selected via
footswitch, while a third footswitch engaged
speaker-pummeling sub-octave tones. Each
channel, including the Sub channel, features its
own set of controls and filters to maximize the
speaker-quaking goodness.
