But making a FET stage behave like a particular tube stage is actually a very complex affair and is not a simple substitute like most other FET-based preamp circuits. Our experience in designing valve amplifiers at MI Audio has seen us obsess over every minute detail of the \u003cb\u003eCross Over Drive\u003c\/b\u003e’s circuit from operating points, dynamic range, scaling of clipping thresholds, output impedances, intrinsic capacitances due to the Miller Effect… you get the idea! This obsession has led to an original pedal design like no other that becomes a natural extension of your guitar, amp and playing style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eThe most coveted guitar tones are those where the guitar, player and amplifier work as one. Every attack on the guitar string, be it by plectrum or finger pick, legato to down-stroke, neck or bridge pickup –all provide a different tone and feel that traditional overdrive pedals can struggle to capture. This response has been the driving force behind the design of the \u003cb\u003eCross Over Drive\u003c\/b\u003e and this attention to detail is what sets it apart from the pack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eControls are:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGAIN –\u003c\/strong\u003e  The \u003cb\u003eCross Over Drive\u003c\/b\u003e is a boost\/enhancer adding some extra sparkle to the guitar’s natural tone. Mid gain mode gives some nice, complex, tube-like overdrive but allows clean-up of the signal via the guitar’s volume knob that A\/B’s well against a standard clean. Add a bit more gain for a smooth, harmonic-rich, sustaining lead sound from 70′s rock to jazz-fusion and crank it to enter loose fuzz territory for those big stoner-rock riffs! Due to the nature of its design, every player will make this pedal sound their own – responding to every nuance and attack of your style and genre.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eThe two knob EQ of DETAIL and BALANCE helps maintain the full drive sound whilst allowing for refinement of the top- and bottom-end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDETAIL\u003c\/strong\u003e – provides the body of the overdrive tone with lower settings perfect for bright amplifiers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBALANCE\u003c\/strong\u003e – allows for the adjustment of the amount of top-end harmonics for either a smooth, round lead sound or turned up for a tone that will cut through a mix.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHand made in Sydney, Australia with 5 Year Warranty\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBypass:\u003c\/strong\u003e Heavy Duty 3PDT footswitch with True Bypass\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePower:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9V Battery or 9VDC power supply ONLY 2.1mm jack, negative centre\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCurrent draw:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5mA\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInput Impedance:\u003c\/strong\u003e 500kΩ\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOutput Impedance:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026lt;25kΩ\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eControls:\u003c\/strong\u003e Volume, Gain, Detail and Balance\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEnclosure:\u003c\/strong\u003e Durable powder coat and screen print.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.2″ x 4.3″ (55.9mm  x 109.2mm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ciframe width=\"690\" height=\"388\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/uBmT473xI0w\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\n\u003ciframe width=\"690\" height=\"388\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gH8ObkllGx0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\n\u003ciframe width=\"345\" height=\"194\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Q9rITA85mIo\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"345\" height=\"194\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/KwJ6FwCb7dQ\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e","brand":"MI AudioMI Effects","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54332183773468,"sku":"crossoverdrive","price":179.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0732\/1983\/4140\/files\/crossoverdrivev2-jrr-edit.jpg?v=1784604159","url":"https:\/\/jrrshop-3235.myshopify.com\/products\/mi-effects-cross-over-drive","provider":"jrrshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
