  • Octave: This blends in the analog octave as you turn it clockwise.
  • Distortion: Turn clockwise for more distortion, counterclockwise for less. This provides about +60dB of gain.
  • Filter: This is a low pass filter with a frequency response from around 500Hz to 30kHz. Turn counterclockwise for more high-end, clockwise for less.
  • Amplitude: Output volume for the octave distortion side. Clockwise for more hearing loss, counterclockwise for a healthy life in old age.
  • Clipping Switch: 
    • OpAmp: No diodes to allow for full, grinding OpAmp assault at maximum volume. 
    • Asymm: Utilizes two silicon diodes and one LED in an asymmetrical clipping configuration. This delivers a slightly compressed and smooth crunch, similar to a valve amplifier. 
    • Symm: This is the stock double silicon diode configuration which provides that classic tone you know and love.
  • Magnitude: This is the output volume for the booster. Clockwise to blow up your amp, counterclockwise if you are a baby. Unity is somewhere right around noon on the dial.
  • Amplitude Footswitch: Distortion Activator 
  • Magnitude Footswitch: Boost Activator 
  • Octave Footswitch: Octave Activator 
  • Octave EXP: Con(more...)
