6. C
This models the “script logo” distortion which was famous
for fueling the tones on “Crazy Train”. These “bud box” dis ‐
tortions are sought after for their large signal gain which uses
LM741CN op amps to drive germanium clipping diodes.
You will find the soft ‐ clipped distortion sounds classic. Mix
in a splash of reverb and push the distortion higher to pro ‐
duce drive and fuzz.
Knob Parameter
EDIT GAIN* Adjusts the gain.
7. TUBE OD
This model is based on an overdrive pedal that’s housed in a
garish, “seasick green” box and is considered an all ‐ time clas ‐
sic due to the wonderfully warm tones it produces.
Knob Parameter

the classic overdrive sound of a cranked vintage tube amp.

9. GOLD DRIVE
This models an overdrive unit named after a half ‐ human half ‐

switch and turn the EDIT knob to make more detailed set ‐
tings (EDIT 2).
