THE DETAILS:

The RevivalDRIVE contains a complete valve amp-style signal path with dedicated class-A preamp, a long-tailed pair phase inverter, and a push-pull output stage. Each part has been designed to reproduce not one, but many different amplifier sounds, putting incredible tone-shaping power at your fingertips. Recreate your favourite vintage amps or get creative with new and exciting combinations.

Amplifier tone starts with the preamp, and this stage can fundamentally re-shape your signal. Select from a range of voicing and bright-cap options to configure the RevivalDRIVE’s Class-A preamp stage. Use the LOWS control to sweep effortlessly between fatter or tighter vintage tones.

Origin Effects’ Reactive Drive Technology adds another level of realism, replicating the frequency-dependent effects of a loudspeaker on the non-linear performance of a valve power amp. We’ve applied this to our push-pull, high-voltage output stage, built with meticulously hand-selected discrete JFETs, to achieve sound quality unmatched by conventional pedal designs.

The MORE PRES control is a hugely powerful tool when designing the perfect vintage amp tone. By affecting negative feedback, this control lets you adjust the breakup characteristics and dynamic response, as well as functioning as a classic presence knob. This is where the real character of an amp’s tone is created. Gradual touch-sensitive breakup, rough and raucous overdrive, percussive hard-edged distortion or bright searing leads. It’s all down to how you set this control.

Have you experienced the other-worldly overtones of a cranked Twin or an early Plexi? The RevivalDRIVE is the only pedal to recreate the subtle “ghosting” effect heard when the guitar signal interacts with mains hum from a struggling power supply. Increasing the GHOST control not only brings out these elusive “ghost notes” but also increases the rectifier “sag” in the RevivalDRIVE’s power supply. Get tight, modern chord definition from the Silicon channel, or switch to the Valve channel for smooth, natural compression.

The built-in Re-Amp EQ means you don’t have to compromise your favourite amp settings to get the perfect drive sound from the RevivalDRIVE. This proprietary filter lets you tailor the output of the pedal to work with just about any amp, as well as flat-response power amps, cabinet simulators and recording interfaces.

Housed in a hand polished, brushed stainless steel enclosure and furnished with aluminium controls, Neutrik^® jack sockets and heavy-duty footswitch, the RevivalDRIVE is at equally home on the road and in the studio.
