The key feature of the Eras is undoubtedly its 5-position rotary knob, which unlocks five times as many distortion modes as the average pedal. You'll love the grabby, bright, and responsive nature of Mode 1's LED hard clipping and slight mid-cut, perfect for crisply and accurately mimicking amp overdrive. Mode 2 unveils the Eras' silicon clipping, and added compression maintains a dialed-in but heavy sound — you'll want to turn up the bass for this one! Meanwhile, Mode 3 is a dual-clipping element that produces the Eras' fullest sounding distortion — it's great when sharped with gain and a little treble. Your first rhythm setting is exposed in Mode 4, which favors midrange but stays nearly as clear and responsive as Mode 1 — this is a good spot to really engage the blend and let your other controls rest at noon. Finally, Mode 5 arguably gives you the Eras' most impactful sound. You'll find it incredibly full with long sustain, and its piercingly deep tone can be altered to make this rhythm mode commandeer any lead spot.
