Since the first Diablos hit the market 15 years ago they found a permanent place on thousands of pedalboards all over the world. The Dual adds some often requested features to the classic Diablo circuit.
The DIABLO DUAL offers exceptional dynamic qualities and super-clear, amp-like sounds. Unlike many other overdrives it works perfectly with clean amps. What makes it so special is a set of controls that affecst the "feel" of the pedal, the way how it reacts to your playing.
DYN(AMIC) adjusts the internal voltage from about 6 to 18 volts. Increasing the headroom results in less compression, tighter bass and more punch.
FEED controls low frequencies in the input signal allowing tight and transparent sounds even with the fattest sounding neck pickups.
BODY control is a bit different from the older Diablo (and also from the GH model). It adds bass and low mids for a fat sound and different gain structure.
INPUT 3-position-miniswitch (normal/lowgain/top boost) sets the sensitivity of the input gain stage for best interaction with your guitars. MIDS changes frequencies in the tone control. Perfect for matching pedal and amp tone.
Each of the two channels is adjustable in GAIN and LEVEL. You can change during playing or pre-select the channels when in bypass mode.
Constructed with a Feed control for contouring the bass in the signal and taming unruly humbuckers, a Body knob for sculpting mids and adding just the right touch of compression, and a headroom switch which automatically doubles voltage and increases dynamic range, the OKKO Diablo Overdrive is much more than meets the eye. Still sporting standard overdrive controls like gain and volume, the expanded functionality on this model make it an excellent choice for guitarists who have a lot of sonic ground to cover in a set.
