The RevivalDRIVE Hot Rod by Origin Effects is a high-gain overdrive pedal designed to deliver aggressive tones suitable for lead, chords, and palm-muted riffs. It features two channels, each with a selectable valve or silicon rectifier, and a range of controls to modify the overdriven tone. The pedal is designed to replicate the signal path of a vintage valve amp, including the preamp, phase inverter, power amp, and rectifier stages, as well as a synthesized mains power signal for an authentic amp-like response.
Key Features:
- Two channels of aggressive high-gain tone
- Selectable valve or silicon rectifier for each channel
- Intuitive controls for adjusting overdriven tone and response
- Mid boost control for modifying overdriven tone or providing a solo boost
- Blend control for adjusting the mix between the dry input signal and the
overdriven signal
- Ghost control for introducing "ghost tones" by varying the amount of
capacitance in the pedal's virtual amp-style power supply
- Re-amp EQ controls for compatibility with a wide range of amplifiers
- Optional footswitch for remotely triggering the mid boost or blend override
