The Maxon PDS1 Distortion pedal uses a hard-clipping circuit to generate its gain, with a Distortion control that sets the amount of overdrive by adjusting the input level into the clipping stage. A Tone control filters the distorted signal, shifting the high-frequency content from dark to bright, while the Level knob adjusts the output volume to match or boost the bypassed signal. The pedal is housed in a compact, rugged metal enclosure with a standard 1/4-inch input and output jack, and it is powered by a 9-volt battery or an optional DC adapter. Its true-bypass switching ensures that when the effect is disengaged, the guitar signal passes through unaltered, preserving the original tone.
