Death By Audio Interstellar Overdriver

Death By Audio Interstellar Overdriver

Throw away your Tube Screamer. Truck loads of sweet creamy overdrive have arrived. The more you turn it up the better it sounds.

The Interstellar Overdriver is a real overdrive pedal blasting your amp with your sound. The knob works giving a slight boost all the way counterclockwise to a beautiful harmonicly rich overdrive maxed out. It is designed to work the same way as old tube amps - the more you turn it up, the better it sounds. For more control kick back the output volume with the MASTER knob while keeping the sweetness.

Catalinbread Dirty Little Secret DLS Overdrive Distortion Pedal

Catalinbread Dirty Little Secret DLS Overdrive Distortion Pedal

In essence, the DLS is a ‘foundation’ pedal – a sonic platform to build the rest of your sound upon. It reacts to your playing dynamics and respects the character of your guitar’s pickups just like the classic British amplifiers it emulates. Use it to set your base crunch rhythm sound into a clean amp, roll your guitar’s volume back for cleans. Notice how treble boosters sound like shards of brittle glass or how fuzzes sound cheesy & thin into clean amps?
