To ensure you get the absolute best out of your new pedal, we strongly recom-
mend you take some me just playing with it to get to know the controls and
how they react. Yes, that is right, we want you to play with it as much as possible!
Drive the front end of your amp cleaner to at rst, geng more of its natural
character, and then at higher gain sengs, kick the overdrive in for a crushing
midrange push that takes your tone to a whole new level.
With a higher output than a typical OD pedal, with addional headroom and an
irregular style of clipping, this pedal gives an outstanding blend of both boost and
overdrive - all wrapped up in one easy to use pedal.
BYPASS - True Bypass footwitch.
LEVEL - Adjusts the output of the pedal. The higher you have this, the louder your
signal will be and push the input of your amp harder.
GAIN - The amount of gain, or overdrive, is applied to your signal. The rst part of
the sweep is prey clean, you really noce the gain coming in past about 11
o’clock. You should spend some me with this, trying it lower and then higher, as
more gain is not always what is needed!
TONE - Not a regular tone control! Feeling more like a mid range punch control,
at all the way o, it’s aer, more natural - at half way you are in the realms of a
regular mid boosted OD, and at higher levels, that mid is pushed right forward
while taking some of the low, abby bass out making the Hexdrive the ghtest
OD pedal available today
POWER - 9-12vDC center pin negave (fully regulated) external adapter/power
