We invented Augmented Analog.
Kernom invented analog morphing core, a new and unique patent pending approach to electronic clipping circuits. It controls the nonlinear elements of the clipping stage (traditionally diodes) by changing in real time their threshold, making them behave like a new kind of diode. Use the mood knob to select the personality of the pedal, from the ultimate clean boost to a fully compressed and characterful overdriven sound.
Chameleon eq trio.
Change the way the pedal reacts to your guitar with the PRE knob, how it interacts with your amp with the POST knob, how you cut through or blend in the mix with the MID knob.

The pedal provides an impressively diverse array of tones and is versatile enough to be used in any context. Its three EQ controls are particularly potent, with the Mid control standing out for its ability to highlight solos without emphasizing any harsh elements.
I am able to achieve all the tone variations that I love, ranging from a clear and sharp sound with a slight hint of roughness when I really dig in, to a velvety or rough distortion. Brilliant!
