Prescription Electronics RX OVERDRIVER

The Prescription Electronics RX Overdriver is a recreation of the Color Sound Overdriver that was a pedal of Jeff Beck's. The pedal is an analog one that is pretty standard in make up, consisting of 1/4" connections for input and a power supply jack. It's not rack mountable as it's as foot pedal. It comes in a few different looks and styles since all of their pedals are home made.

UTILIZATION

The make up of the Prescription Electronics RX Overdriver is straight forward and easy to understand. It has four knobs to control the different parameters for volume, drive, and both bass and treble. It's nice to have independent tone control as these are the parameters you'll usually see on an overdrive pedal but usually there's only one tone knob. No use for a manual here since it's very simple.

SOUND QUALITY

The sound of the Prescription Electronics RX Overdriver is extremely milky and rich. I really like it has a silky and smooth overdrive for both lead and rhythm guitar parts, but mainly for lead parts. There are a lot of overdrive pedals out there that are great for rhythm, but not as many for lead, so it's nice to see that here. It definitely has it's own sound which I like very much. I don't own one of these but it's a great tool to have in the studio.

OVERALL OPINION

The Prescription Electronics RX Overdriver is a unique overdrive pedal and is one that I didn't know about until recently. I'm glad I've experienced it now as it's perfect for lead guitarists looking for a milky, rich, and smooth sound. The price is more than reasonable considering that it's hand made like all pedal by Prescription Electronics. Although it's definitely aimed at professional or more experienced guitar players, it's worth a look for anyone looking for a top end overdrive.

UTILIZATION

The rglage Graves is correct but is quite limited for those
apprcient that "serious donf" n'tant not a fan of sound
serious charges, this does not impede me from it!
The treble is well thought out and effective with good range
of rglage.
Gain acts more towards the end of the race so its rglage is quite sharp.
As for the volume, it provides a power output enough thunder
Exceeds that a lot of my other distos.

SOUND QUALITY

Tests with single coils, the saturation is fairly low.
I use a compressor enters with more volume rglage levbr /> the guitar to compensate for the weak and simple,
saturation becomes more convincing.
So do not hsit place a small "boost" in between the pedals
so that it is fully expressed with simple microphones.
Not yet tested with Humbuckers for now!
The sound possde a grain trs interresting, a little also vintage,
I find it nice and shuffled trs well with the rest.
Personally, I prfre a lamp Metal Monster! it sounds
more real, more "musical"

OVERALL OPINION

In short a trs good analog pedals as I apprcie, musical, effective
interresting with grain, that stands out in the "mix".
This Rx Overdriver and my Blues Devil are the two pedals that I find most
interesting among my collection and those sold ...
Personally, has nothing do with a Jackhammer, MT-2, Guv'nor, Rat and co ...
which are nice but not quite "alive" for me.
10 Thus, it largely MRIT for me!
