NAM 2017: Electro-Harmonix Operation Overlord Stereo Distortion

I actually just disassembled the huge messy breadboard I started the project with, but it went through a lot of changes as it morphed into its final form.

Sounds like the creative process.

No, sorry. That's a great idea, I might look into it in the future, but in general it's easier to just add a dry-out jack to a mono pedal (see: nanoPOG, etc.)


None of those, actually... it was more a open-ended design process. I started with some JFET amplifier stages that worked pretty well, and strung them together in tube-preamp style schematic (this is pretty common with JFETs lately), but did a variety of tone-shaping throughout the signal path. It was sort of an iterative thing... I actually just disassembled the huge messy breadboard I started the project with, but it went through a lot of changes as it morphed into its final form.

Thanks, very interesting, will definitely have to check it out at my local shop.
