This is one that was totally under my radar. It was highly recommended by @szukalski so of course I always listen to my enablers and I grabbed the board.
Really neat overdrive with a very wide range of gain that sounds good all across the range.
It excels as a low gain drive though.
It's got a lot of controls and I'm still kinda figuring it out. There's a "Dynamics" control that sounds like it adjusts available voltage and headroom.
Then there are both Mids toggle and "Body" toggle switches that can add or reduce a more pronounced "hump".
It's also capable of pretty high gain distortion as well but to me it sounds best in the lower gain range settings.
Really neat overdrive/distortion. This is on my list to demo.
Oh and just a warning, the toggle switched are very close to the lower pot legs and can easily short the pots. So some insulation is called for.
I decided to build this one with relay switching, just......because.....![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
I used some of the leftover backing from a sheet of silicone feet to insulate the toggle switch bodies.
