The EBS MultiDrive is an ultra-compact and robust overdrive pedal designed for bass instruments. It is capable of producing sustain, overdrive, and various tube amp distortion sounds. The pedal features a Class A overdrive engine with a wide gain range, emulating a classic vintage style preamp tube. The MultiDrive offers three modes: Standard, Flat, and Tubesim, allowing users to select different overdrive sounds. The Tubesim mode activates a second tube simulator, adding extra harmonics with compression and slightly less high-end attack.
