If you're looking for an extremely sonically flexible overdrive pedal that gives you the tone, feel and dynamic response of a real tube amp and you don't mind the crown, then you should definitely look for overdrive effects from Origin Effects.
The RevivalDRIVE Hot Rod Edition is a "more polished version" of the RevivalDRIVE two-channel overdrive effect. In this case, the vintage Marshall Plexi drive replaces the hi-gain with the sonic character of the famous "eight" (Marshall JCM 800). Using purely analogue components, it replicates all levels of tube amp circuitry, i.e. Class A preamps of both channels, phase inverter, push-pull end stage, rectifiers (tube and solid state - Valve and Silicon Rectifier channels) or built-in reactive load, i.e. the pedal models the interaction between the tube amp and the speaker. The term "amp in a box" thus takes on a whole new dimension.
Describing the functions of the individual controls is completely unrealistic and unnecessary, this pedal needs to be tried and "touched". However, we can certainly mention the built-in mid-boost for asserting yourself in the mix (live and in the studio), the dual function of the MORE/PRES control, where in the setting from the neutral position (12 o'clock) to the right it functions as a classic Marshall presence control, by setting to the left you work with negative feedback - you get more overdrive/distortion (faster onset of distortion), or the unique GHOST control, which replicates the "double tone" or "ghost note" effect (creating aliquots/higher harmonics) of melted tube machines.
The wide range of drivers and switches also make it easy to solve the problem of many pedals only working optimally with certain types of instruments. Thus, an overly bright or dark amplifier sound, or a "weird" sound when the pedal is plugged directly into the soundboard, are echoes of the past - simply adjust the EQ to the chosen circuit.
The Revival Footswitch (not included) can be connected to the effect to control the MID ENGAGE and BLEND OVERRIDE functions. The pedal works in buffered bypass mode. The power supply is provided by a 9V DC center negative adapter.
The English brand Origin Effects represents another interesting concept in the field of contemporary manufacturers of hand made pedal effects. Unlike many other products, Origin Effects pedal effects do not refer to the past and boutique design, but reflect the needs of contemporary musicians in terms of functionality and durability. Each product undergoes a complex process (from hand soldering and assembling the individual components, calibration with an audio analyzer, fitting them into a durable brushed steel chassis, testing the final product with a real instrument, i.e. guitar or bass, to an output check confirmed by a handwritten serial number on the box). You can therefore be sure that you will only receive a product that meets the brand's high standards.
