Frequently Asked Questions
➤ What is the difference between buffered and true bypass on the Tumnus Deluxe?
Buffered mode enhances signal clarity and helps maintain tone over long cable runs. True bypass provides an uncoloured, direct signal path when the pedal is off, preferred by players seeking absolute tonal purity. Switching between the two is quick via the side toggle.
➤ Can I use the Tumnus Deluxe as a standalone overdrive or only as a boost?
Yes, the Tumnus Deluxe excels in both roles. Its versatile EQ and gain controls allow you to shape your tone as a full overdrive or a boost pedal to complement other effects or amplifiers.
➤ How does the active EQ affect my guitar tone?
The active bass, mid, and treble controls let you boost or cut specific frequency ranges, giving you precise control over warmth, midrange presence, and brightness, so you can tailor your sound to your rig and playing style.
➤ What power supply do I need for the pedal?
The Tumnus Deluxe operates on a standard 9V DC power supply, ensuring compatibility with most pedalboards and power sources.
➤ Are the input and output jacks easy to access on a pedalboard?
Yes, the pedal features top-mounted ¼" input and output jacks, designed for easy connection in tight pedalboard setups.
