EarthQuaker Devices Palisades V2 Overdrive/Distortion Effects Pedal
This is a new Palisades from EarthQuaker Devices. The Palisades is an overdrive based on the classic TS808 circuit, but with expanded features that expand its versatility. It features 6 different clipping voices, 5 bandwidth settings and 2 gain channels. The clipping voices determine how transparent and open or tight and crunchy the distortion is; the bandwidth sets the frequency response of the distortion and goes from thin, light and clean through fat heavy and crunchy; and Gain A is a lower gain channel with a wider range of grit that is great for strumming open chords while Gain B is a higher gain channel with a tighter range that is great for palm muting and/or shredding solos. The Palisades also has a foot switchable volume boost with adjustable level, a normal/bright switch to mix and match the overall tone to different amps and guitars, and a buffer on/off switch to tighten up the tone and make it sparkle when set to “ON” or warm it up and make it sag when set to “OFF”. This is the V2 of the Palisades with Flex-Switching. This device features Flexi-Switch Technology on the Gain and Boost switches! This relay-based, true bypass switching style allows you to simultaneously use momentary and latching style switching.
