BASED ON "REAL DEAL" DUMBLE ODS AMPS!
The R&D for the Ultraphonix pedal took over four (4) years, and almost a half-dozen Dumble amplifiers! From 2012 to 2016, we got ahold of five (5) Dumble Overdrive Special (ODS) amplifiers to most accurately voice the Ultraphonix pedal, comparing to "real deal" Dumble amplifiers - many of these amps were owned and/or used by world famoud Dumble users. Knowing that these Dumble amps were customized to the player, our goal was to find the "X Factor" among a variety of Dumble ODS amps and distill the "D-Style" essence into the most authentic sounding and feeling "amp in a box" pedal.

VERSATILE CONTROLS TO SHAPE YOUR TONE
To help you create your ultimate tone, the Ultraphonix has extra gain-shaping controls beyond the original MKI version with Master Volume, Input Gain "Level", and Distortion/Saturation "Ratio". Players can fine tune their pickup outputs with the input gain "LEVEL" control to get the same reaction from the overdrive irrespective of using Single Coil or Humbucking pickups with up to 8dB of level compensation available. Plus, get additional presence and harmonic saturation using the "FILTER" knob for sculpting the upper-mids from 800Hz to 1.6kHz. Once you get the perfect mix of overdrive and EQ, use the "MASTER" volume control to set your final output level. No matter where you set it, this pedal will sound "wide-open" and "amp-like" at all volume levels.
