Overview

The bx_yellowdrive distortion pedal from Brainworx is an exacting plugin emulation of one of the most popular overdrive pedals ever made: The Boss SD-1. Guitarists love the warm, smooth tube amplifier-like distortion and overdrive this pedal produces while responding authentically to picking technique. Unique, asymmetric overdrive circuitry delivers a genuine overdrive effect for a classic guitar sound. The tone control allows for different distortion flavors.

From subtle warming of clean tones to smooth overdrive effects, the bx_yellowdrive delivers classic sound to your DAW. Download the full function 14-day demo (no dongle required!) today to add this iconic overdrive to your tracks.

Through the 15th of October 2015, the bx_yellowdrive will be available as part of the Brainworx Classic Guitar Tones Bundle. Save over 62% on this amazingly versatile collection, which includes the bx_bassdude amp simulation and three other classic stompbox emulations.

The best plugin version of one of my all time favorite overdrive pedals. Unfortunately most SD-1 based plugins, which I know, do not sound very much like the real pedal in my opinion, this one does.
