Tiental
The Tiental is our take on the now legendary P*avey D*cade combo from the early 1980s, whose sound became extremely popular in the last couple of years. The DIY community massively embraced it and we couldn't resist giving this bad boy a try ourselves.
The pedal features a two-channel circuit with an overdrive channel and a distorted/fuzzy one. The Pre and Post-Gain Controls enable fine-tuning of the overdriven sound, while the three-band EQ helps you further shape the tone.
Among the juiciest features of this pedal is its internal voltage boost to 24 volts, which adds a massive amount of headroom.
Controls
Gain – This is a pre-gain knob which controls the signal volume going into the pedal. It goes from "a lot" to "even more".
Tone - This Big Muff style tone control keeps a good amount of midrange while cutting the highs and lows.
Level – This one sets the output volume of the pedal. There is a lot of headroom on it!
Blend – Splits the input signal and blends the clean signal into the dirt circuit. Set it to the middle position for a 50% clean and distorted signal. Move it to the right to completely remove the distorted signal.
