12 1345681079REMEMBER: The Cinnamon Drive is not a dual, independent channel overdrive pedal. The Boost section is not a cleanboost - even though it can serve as one - it’s a second gain stage that gets stacked with the main overdrive circuit.Even though there are independent volume controls for each stage, the “Gain” knob will always affect the “Boost” setting.BYPASS FOOTSWITCH: Engages the unit and letsthe signal flow through the Cinnamon Drive clippingcircuit. It also light up the LED above it.BOOST FOOTSWITCH: Activates the second gainstage (Hard Clipping) and will light up the LED above it.GAIN: Controls the amount of gain in the first clippingstage (Soft Clipping). In the counterclockwiseposition it acts as a clean preamp, and as it isincreased it builds into a light crunch to finallyproducing a rich and dynamic overdrive.VOL: Sets the volume of the soft clipping section.Tip: set the Gain knob at minimum and adjust theVolume knob to get a fat and nicely colored boost.This is really useful if you want to add some characterto a flat-sounding amp or to push your tube ampinto its sweet spot. Be careful! This pedal can beEXTREMELY LOUD.BOOST: Set the amount of signal boost beforereaching the hard-clipping circuit. This way the guitarsignal is affected by the two circuits (Soft and HardClipping) at the same time and you can control howmuch of each type of saturation you want.At minimum setting it adds a subtle effect to the firststage, but as you increase the knob it starts to addcompression and distortion, a desirable effect whenyou need a defined and tight tone to cut through forriffs or solos.VOL BOOST: Sets the volume of the Boost section.Its purpose is to have separate levels for each gainsection so for example, you can pre-set a rhythm toneon the first stage and a more aggressive sound witha volume increase for solo work or parts where yourguitar needs a bit more of presence.TONE: A simple but super effective passive treble cutcontrol affecting both sections. Turn it clockwise tosoften treble frequencies.49105678 |
