Gig-FX VOD Variable Overdrive Pedal Released

Gig-FX VOD Variable OverDrive Pedal

Gig-FX definitely had the number three on the brain when they released the VOD Variable OverDrive pedal. The VOD is a three position pedal with three separate channels for gain and level so you can switch from clean tone to ultra-distorted lead and anywhere in between.

Each gain channel has its own dual function dial. The main knob controls the amount of gain while a turnable outer ring adjusts level. On the other side of the pedal, a 3-band EQ helps preserve your desired EQ or add interesting cuts or boosts.

Other features include:

  • All analog signal circuitry with digital control, crystal clear sound, no coloration.
  • Easy to use. Just press the pedal and will click into the required position.
  • Transparent bypass achieved by a FET switch.
  • Open frequency response same as a true mechanical bypass, but more reliable - no signal drop or harmonics suck-out and noiseless, pop-free switching.
  • Reliable, wear-free, noise-free optical operation. Bypassed when pedal is all the way back.
  • 9V operating voltage, 20mA current consumption (AC adapter recommended).
  • Will accept standard 2.1mm AC adapter supply plug, center negative.
  • Green / Yellow / Red LED’s indicate level of distortion selected.
  • Compact Size: 9” x 4” (228mm x 103mm).
  • Lightweight, high-quality aircraft aluminum casting and rugged construction, only 2.3lbs (1.1kg). Patented ergonomics.
