Figure 4: The Flat/Bright switch, offering two distinct overdrive voicings.
  • GUANY: Start with the GAIN knob at a lower setting and gradually increase it to achieve your desired level of overdrive. Lower settings provide a subtle boost, while higher settings produce a more saturated, distorted sound.
  • TO: Adjust the TONE knob to brighten or darken your sound. Turning it clockwise increases treble, making the sound sharper, while turning it counter-clockwise reduces treble for a warmer tone.
  • NIVELL: Use the LEVEL knob to match the output volume of the pedal to your bypassed signal, or to boost your signal for solos.
  • FLAT/BRIGHT Switch: Experiment with this switch to select between the two distinct overdrive characteristics. The "Flat" setting offers a more neutral, balanced overdrive, suitable for rhythm or subtle lead work. The "Bright" setting adds more high-end presence, ideal for cutting through a mix or for a more aggressive lead tone.
