Nobels ODR-1X Natural Overdrive
Nobels ODR-1X
The new Nobels ODR-1X is the next generation of this now legendary overdrive, heralding a new chapter in the Nobels overdrive legacy. Due to popular demand, a convenient external bass cut pot has been added, as well as the option to change between true bypass or buffered bypass. For hi-gain aficionados, a new switchable hi-gain boost is also now available. This is capable of transforming ODR-1X into a true hard rock monster. With the ability to control both the gain boost and on/off remotely, along with the unique SPECTRUM tone control, fold-out Mounty-P mounting plates and knobs with fluorescent ‘Glow in the Dark’ pointers, the ODR-1X adds worthwhile flexibility and utility to a time-tested favorite.
Adjustable Bass Cut
For extended ease of use, the internal Bass Cut feature originally included in the ODR-1BC is now available as an external variable control right on the face of the pedal. This allows for complete opti- misation of the pedal’s bass response on the fly, at the simple turn of a knob. The flexibility of this new additional control compliments Nobels’ unique and renowned SPECTRUM tone control, which alters the proportion of both the low-mid and high frequencies simultaneously. At midday, the frequencies remain almost untou- ched. However, moving from the minimum to maximum positions will deliver variations in frequency response that are suitable for a wealth of musical tastes and styles.
Under the hood...
ODR-1X also now features the ability to switch between True Bypass and Buffered Bypass via a mini switch that is located within the top loading battery compartment. True Bypass gives the maxi- mum tonal purity. While players who are using longer cable runs, can switch to Buffered Bypass mode to preserve high frequencies.
Gain boost switch
This switch turns the ODR-1 X into a real monster with extra gain. It is suitable for powerful hard rock sounds or gives a solo the right assertiveness. This function can also be operated remotely!
