SANSAMP & TECH 21 EFFECTS PEDALS

DOUBLE DRIVE (DDRIVE)

Class A & Class A/B-style Distortions

DRIVE A controls the amount of Class A power amp output stage distortion (like Vox AC30®-style amp), rich in even harmonics. The amount of harmonics is dynamically controlled by the input level. Therefore, you will influence the ratio of harmonics by how hard you pick. At minimum, the circuitry has no tonal effect on the sound and is clean.

DRIVE A/B controls the amount of Class A/B power amp output stage distortion (like Fender®/Marshall®-style amps) rich in odd harmonics. At minimum, the circuitry has no tonal effect on the sound and is clean. The signal path of Drive A runs into the signal path of Drive A/B. This results in an electronic multiplication, rather than addition, of the amount of distortion to achieve a cascading effect. The interaction of the two Drives with the Tone control yields an immeasurable number of variations.

DOUBLE DRIVE 3X (DDRIVE3X)

PROGRAMMABLE

This unique pedal design captures the lush, muscular power amp
distortions of both Class A and Class A/B tube amps. The tones can be
used individually or you can feed one into the other for massive ‘cascading’ distortion and limitless tonal variation. The 100% analog Double Drive 3X is a 3-channel, fully programmable version of its single channel predecessor and features active 3-band EQ. The expanded tone section gives you even greater flexibility to create incredible and original tones. You can store three custom sounds, even on the fly, by simply tweaking the knobs and double-tapping on a footswitch. How easy is that? And, with both Drives at minimum, you can program a clean boost up to 10dB for blazing solos.

DRIVE A controls the amount of Class A power amp output stage distortion (like Vox AC30®-style amp), rich in even harmonics. The amount of harmonics is dynamically controlled by the input level and their ratio by how hard you pick.

DRIVE A/B controls the amount of Class A/B power amp output stage distortion (like Fender®/Marshall®-style amps), rich in odd harmonics.

The signal path of Drive A runs into the signal path of Drive A/B. This results in an electronic multiplication, rather than addition, of the amount of distortion to achieve a cascading effect.

AMERICAN WOMAN (AWI)

With just the right balance of odd and even harmonics, the American Woman recreates the cascading effect of two different amplifiers, including pre-amp and power amp stages. This effect is typically only achieved by running two guitar amplifiers into each other. For versatility, the American Woman pedal can also be cleaned up for semi-dirty and warm blues sounds.

Controls include:
- Drive for the amount of overdrive
- Gate to reduce hiss & noise when you’re not playing
- Tone shifts the high cut from 10kH to 1kH, allowing you to
remove the high end without losing mids or getting muddy
- Level, which is capable of extremely high output - 10dB

Other features:
- 1 megOhm high impedance ¼ “ input (same as traditional tube amps use)
- 1Kohm low impedance ¼” output
(drives long cables without loss of signal integrity)
- Smooth, silent-switching custom actuator
- Heavy duty, all metal housing, removable battery compartment door

GT2 (GT2)

Build your own rig

Sansamp GT2’s streamlined design allows you to “architecturally” create your own rig in seconds by choosing amplifier type, modification, and speaker cabinet/mic placement configurations. We’ve taken the best parts of the most wanted tube amplifier set-ups and broken them down into individual, user-accessible “components”. You can easily mix and match specific sound characteristics in ways that would otherwise be physically improbable, probably impractical, and definitely not cost effective.

For studio and live applications, SansAmp Bass Driver DI is engineered with three outputs: an effected XLR, and effected ¼“, and a parallel, unaffected ¼”. The footswitch activates the Tube Amplifier Emulation circuitry. Disengaging the circuitry enables you to use SansAmp Bass Driver DI as a standard active transparent direct box.

BASS DRIVER DI (BASSDRV-P)
PROGRAMMABLE
Always thinking of our fat-stringed brethren, we had to make a 3 channel, programmable, ring-in-a-box for bassists who can’t get enough of a great thing. Like the TRI-AC for guitar, you get there hot tones right at your toetips. The all-analog circuitry features the same controls as its single channel predecessor: Drive, Bass, Treble, Presence, Blend and Level. Digital only in its programmability, you just tweak the knobs until you find a tone, double-tap on a footswitch, and it’s saved in that channel. It’s thats simple. Three of your faves -- to go!

Its built-in speaker emulation encompasses all aspects of multiple mike tube amp rigs. When you select one of the 3 pre-voiced amp styles, every dimension of each individual personality changes. It is not merely a difference in EQ or gain structure.
