Thorpy FX's The Dane is a signature pedal designed for Peter "Danish Pete" Honoré. The Dane gives you a low/medium gain overdrive with boost that cleans up very well with your guitar's volume control. Boost side is in front of the overdrive side, so activating it gives you the ability to get more gain out of the pedal.
MKII version shrinks the pedal to about half of the original size and adds a switch to the boost side. The switch allows you to choose between clean and dirty boost.
- Controls:
Volume: Sets output volume level.
Tone: Tone control for the overdrive. At around 7 o'clock you will find softer tones, towards 5 o'clock the tones get brighter and "bitier".
Drive: Sets the amount of gain.
Boost: Sets the amount of boost in the boost side of the pedal. You can use the boost also without the overdrive engaged, when it gives you a high headroom clean boost. If the overdrive side is active at the same time, the boost drives the overdrive side into higher gain.
Lows: Sets the amount of low frequencies produced by the Boost side. - Power Requirements: 2.1 mm 9V DC centre negative power supply, about 30 mA.
- True Bypass
- Handmade in England using the best available components, including WIMA and Panasonic capacitors, 1% metal film resistors, Burr Brown opamp, etc.
