Overdrive

Distortion

200-series drive with 12 algorithms including analog simulation and hybrid tones.

The OD-200 Hybrid Drive combines digital modeling of classic drive circuits with an analog signal path, aiming for the best of both worlds. Twelve drive algorithms cover everything from vintage overdrive to modern high-gain distortion.

Twelve algorithms recreate classic drive circuits: clean boost, blues drive, mid-boost OD, turbo OD, distortion, metal zone, fuzz, and more, plus original hybrid algorithms. The 'hybrid' approach uses digital processing for the drive algorithms but maintains an analog dry path for signal integrity. 127 user presets with MIDI recall.

Dedicated Drive, Tone, and Level knobs plus a parameter control. MIDI in/out for preset switching. Stereo I/O. At 220mA, proper power is required. The preset storage and MIDI make it viable for players who switch between multiple drive sounds in a set.

The OD-200 isn't trying to be a single great overdrive. It's a drive library: twelve different flavors of dirt in one presetable, MIDI-capable unit. For players who currently carry three or four drive pedals and want to consolidate.
