Dueling rhythm section tracking on the dual-channel VDP. The definitive all-tube Preamp and DI from Hazelrigg Industries.⁣
⁣

Caroline’s new Aaron Graves Overdrive represents the company’s long-awaited return to the drive realm, with a fresh design that encapsulates the renowned preamp section from its Parabola tremolo & Météore reverb pedals, while taking that sound in exciting new directions. ⁣
⁣
A bass voicing selector (for those neck pickup and humbucker people), enhanced gain staging, and a low-compression “power amp clipping” option impart this OD with an inspiring range of tones, and a gnarly side that might surprise you. ⁣
⁣
The Aaron Graves Overdrive is also a tribute to its namesake, dearly departed friend and Columbia, South Carolina scene legend, Aaron Graves, founder of Fork & Spoon Records, and leader of Those Lavender Whales. ⁣
⁣
As such, a portion of all sales proceeds from the Aaron Graves Overdrive will go to Fork & Spoon to continue Aaron’s work and legacy.⁣

The new EXPL 2, or Exploration 2, from Fish Circuits is the second design in the company’s limited Exploration series, bringing a very mid-focused approach to a legendary fuzz that is known for its lackadaisical mid content. ⁣
⁣
Fish Circuits stripped this classic stoner fuzz circuit down to its clipping section, removing the underwhelming tilt EQ, and rebuilt the whole thing from the ground up with total midrange dominance in mind. ⁣
⁣
The Form control is the key to the EXPL 2, selecting from three available voices with varying degrees of midrange, from slightly subdued, to quite forthright, to rather over-the-top. ⁣
⁣
Between these you can go from thick and stoner-y, to full-on mix stiletto, or anywhere in-between. And of course the Fish Circuits EXPL 2 has plenty of output for driving an amp or other pedals any way you please.⁣

The latest iteration of JAM pedals’ ultimate 808-style overdrive pedal, the Tubdreamer mk.2, delivers on the promise of its predecessor - sweet, finely tuned midrange, loads of low-gain resolution for maximum sonic flexibility at the cleaner end, and rich, amp-like clarity - while upping the sonic ante considerably. ⁣
⁣
The mk.2 features a no-diode mode on its CLIPPING toggle, removing diodes from the signal path for an open, dynamic feel and sound. In addition, the high-gain stage is now accessible via a dedicated footswitch, making the Tubedreamer a powerful live performance companion. ⁣
⁣
A pair of trim pots under the hood allow for precise tweaking of output for the high-gain stage in each clipping mode, for nailing the perfect level, and a selectable power-on state lets the user choose whether the pedal starts up engaged or in bypass. ⁣
⁣
Like all JAM pedals, the Tubedreamer mk.2 is made by hand, and features industry standard 9v power and true bypass switching.⁣

The new Franklin Audio DI-80 is an industrial strength direct box that combines eight channels of pristine, passive, high headroom direct injection with a unique I/O matrix that allows you to keep all your daily studio workhorses plugged in on the backside, while the corresponding front panel inputs are always ready for something new, automatically overriding the rear connection as a new instrument is plugged in. This inventive arrangement minimizes setup hassles while maximizing your music making. ⁣
⁣
The DI-80 is housed in a sturdy, clean single rack unit for minimal footprint, with eight TS inputs, eight balanced XLR outputs, and eight squeaky clean throughputs for routing untouched copies of the original signals out for parallel processing or reamping. ⁣
⁣
The Franklin Audio DI-80 is 100% analog and 100% passive, requiring no external power, and it is built for dead quiet, straighforward operation in any setup, whether rack or desktop.⁣
