I went to www.google.com, entered the text "EHX Overlord", clicked Search, and the link below was at the top of the resulting page. The answer to your question will be revealed when you click the link (or even just look at the link title ).

Electro-Harmonix Overlord Overdrive Pedal

 

[Driven Crane]

Overdrive? OH yeaAH! and how it works with bass? a kind of Soul Food?

 

[Crater]

Making some assumptions here, but generally an "FET" overdrive uses field effect transistors in an preamp-like circuit emulate amp overdrive. The Soul Food and a lot of other op-amp based overdrives amplify the signal and then have diodes 'clip' the signal. Not better or worse, just different. The Boss Blues Driver is an FET overdrive, so is the MXR EVH overdrive.

I haven't heard of this pedal before, but it's got some cool features for bass players, methinks the "input level" control will help this unit work well with ACTIVE basses.

Stereo overdrive.

This will be like an EHX Hot Tubes with added features, color me very interested as I do adore what Hot Tubes does to my rig.

I looked at the EHX demo today, looks very interesting, although I must admit I don't really like like their stock demos. I would be very interested to test it out. Between this, the Blurst and the Canyon I have a feeling I may purchase all three.

I'm convinced that song is about ice cream sandwiches.

"So the company went about adding even more guitarist-friendly features, such as an independently footswitchable boot"



I hope they did that on purpose but I bet someone was just too stoned while editing...

 

[Flabass]

The Electro-Harmonix Operation Overlord overdrive effects pedal originated from the idea of giving keys players a way to add great-sounding grit to their sounds. But the guitarists at EHX quickly realized that the Overlord's FET-based overdrive delivered the tube amp-like tone and feel that guitarists clamor for. So the company went about adding even more guitarist-friendly features, such as an independently footswitchable boot, a dry blend, and more. No matter how you intend to run your EHX Overlord, it's sure to deliver the warm and gritty tones you're after.

There's an EHX video with bass either...

At minute 3:00

It's a brand new box. Not much bass data in the world.
