Mozztronics BOD-1 Bass Drive Pedal
Mozztronics BOD-1 Bass Drive Pedal
Split-path design. Dry blend retains low end. Double clipping stage. Contour switch. Hand made in Australia.
Most guitar overdrive pedals tailor the sound before and after the clipping stage. This results in a loss of bottom end, as too much bass in an overdriven sound can make the sound "flabby".
This is the Mozztronics take on a pedal especially for bass players. The solution is to take the signal from the bass guitar and split it:
One path goes straight to the output via the DRY volume control
The other path goes through a high pass filter (to remove the flab from the overdrive) and then to a double clipping stage—as the signal level increases, each different clipping stage contributes accordingly
This signal then goes to the CONTOUR circuitry and to the WET volume control. By changing the levels of DRY and WET you can easily vary the balance between the two signals. By keeping the original signal, you retain a warm bottom end and add in as much dirt up top as desired.
