Electro-Harmonix OD Glove Guitar Pedal with Mosfet Overdrive and Distortion
The Electro-Harmonix OD Glove provides a rich,
overtone-laden sound that doesn’t get muddy. Responsive controls that take you
from sparkling, clean boost through brown crunch and to thick, saturated
hi-gain. It has advanced features like Tone Shift and selectable 9 or 18V
internal voltage for surgical sound sculpting.
Controls
The GAIN Knob controls the amount of input gain and overdrive. As you turn this
knob clockwise, the OD Glove ranges from sweet cleans to full-power distortion.
The TONE knob on the OD Glove filters out high frequencies. When fully
clockwise, the full tonal range of the overdrive comes through. As the knob is
turned counter-clockwise, high frequencies are rolled off. Use this to achieve
a smoother tone or to reduce any high-frequency harshness. VOL knob sets the
output level of the OD Glove. The TONE SHIFT Switch controls the mid-frequency
emphasis of the TONE knob. Setting this switch to OFF creates a flatter EQ,
with some emphasis on low mids. Setting the SHIFT switch to ON emphasizes mids
and high mids. There is also a small increase in volume when the switch is set
to ON. The Footswitch selects whether the OD Glove is engaged or in true bypass
mode. When the effect is engaged, the LED is lit. The OD Glove includes an
internal slide switch to change its internal power supply voltage from 9V to
18V. Operation at 18V results in a less compressed, more open tone that may
work better for some guitar and amplifier combinations. Operation at 9V results
in a tighter sound, and reduces the current draw to 5mA. Experiment with the
voltage setting at full volume to find the best sound for your playing style.
Please remember to not exceed 10VDC at the 9V Power Jack. The OD Glove
generates the 18V internally.
