Mozztronics AC-1 Acti-Clamp Drive Pedal

Mozztronics AC-1 Acti-Clamp Drive Pedal
Active clamp circuit (industrial signal conditioning). Continuous clamp control replaces multiple diodes. Active Bandaxall Bass & Treble. Hand made in Australia.
 
 
This is NOT your normal diode clipping overdrive. Mozztronics used an active clamp circuit—a standard building block in industrial signal conditioning electronics—and adapted it to a guitar drive pedal. An active Bandaxall Bass & Treble control is added to perfectly dial in the EQ.
 
GAIN controls the amount of gain from the first stage, from clean to a nice drive.
BASS and TREBLE are an active Bandaxall EQ circuit. These controls offer cut when turned anticlockwise from centre, and boost when turned clockwise from centre.
CLAMP adjusts the active clamp control voltage. Clockwise is high voltage (like an LED), anticlockwise is low voltage (like a Schottky diode). The CLAMP control is like having a full range of clipping diodes in one unit, easily adjustable with a single control.
 
VOLUME adjusts the overall output.

Controls
GAIN – first stage gain (clean to drive)
BASS – active Bandaxall (cut anticlockwise, boost clockwise)
TREBLE – active Bandaxall (cut anticlockwise, boost clockwise)
CLAMP – active clamp control voltage (continuous diode emulation)
VOLUME – overall output level
 
Key Features
Active clamp circuit adapted from industrial signal conditioning
Not traditional diode clipping overdrive
CLAMP control provides continuous range of clipping characteristics:
Clockwise = high voltage (LED-style)
Anticlockwise = low voltage (Schottky diode-style)
Replaces multiple clipping diodes with single continuous control
Active Bandaxall Bass and Treble EQ
Bass/Treble controls offer cut and boost from centre
Gain from clean to drive
