Thanks to Origin Effects' proprietary Adaptive circuitry, this pedal responds to every nuance of your playing. The Halcyon Gold Overdrive's Adapt switch enables its subtly mid-forward character to gradually fade at lower volumes, supplying you with classic transparent overdrive with your volume wide open but revealing the full spectrum of your clean tone as you roll back your volume knob. The Origin Effects Halcyon Gold Overdrive's Dry knob allows you to blend your dry signal with the overdriven signal. This not only gives you extra body and definition when you use the pedal to boost a low-gain amplifier, but it also lets you dial in the perfect sound when you approach high-gain territory. You'll find this feature useful when stacking the Halcyon Gold with other drive pedals, giving you access to a massive salmagundi of distorted textures.
The Halcyon Gold also includes a 2-position Voice switch with KLN and MOD settings. KLN yields classic transparent drive, while MOD delivers a more mid-forward sound with extra compression.
