Each Octonaut Hyperdrive features germanium diodes rigorously tested for optimum tone, an IC3 that converts voltages giving the player more headroom, a gain pot that expertly blends the clipping & clean stages, a selectable true/buffered bypass operation, and a refined circuit design for ultra-consistent performance from pedal to pedal. Pair this little guy with any guitar rig and the resultant tone will lead to massive planetary destruction!
