Maxon TOD9 True Tube Overdrive Guitar Effects Pedal

Real tube overdrive for that distinctive classic sound.




The Maxon TOD-9 Overdrive Pedal doesn't just sound like
a real tube amp—it gets as close as you can to that sound with real
tube, making this the True Tube Overdrive. The TOD-9 pedal features a US
Military spec subminiature tube at its core. Subminiatures are the
final frontier of vacuum tubes, as the supply of quality vintage tubes
is rapidly dwindling. Used extensively during World War II,
subminiatures were largely abandoned by 1955 in favor of transistor
technology, leaving a healthy stock of quality NOS product behind.

To
create its lush overdrive tone, the TOD-9 overdrive pedal blends this
subminiature tube stage with a solid-state distortion circuit. Unlike
other tube overdrives, the TOD-9 employs a unique "pre-tube" circuit
configuration, where the tube comes before the solid-state distortion
circuit in the signal chain. By cascading the tube stage into the
distortion stage, a more realistic tube-amp tone is achieved. The result
is a warm yet powerful guitar tone that is extremely interactive with
the player's performance and responds exactly like a hard-working
tube-amp.

Both the tube and solid-state sections of the circuit
are fed with 30 volts DC thanks to the TOD-9's internal voltage
regulators. Running the circuit at higher voltages provides a more
consistent tone with increased headroom and dynamic response.

The
performance of the tube is kept stable and reliable thanks to Maxon's
unique heater inrush current control, which feeds the tube with a lower
startup voltage to extend tube life. The complex multi-voltage operation
of the TOD-9 overdrive prompted Maxon to develop a unique power supply
for this model—the AC2009. The AC2009 provides very consistent high
current that is regulated and filtered to provide stable, noise-free
power to the TOD-9's circuit. The AC2009 is auto-sensing, so it can be
used anywhere in the world by simply changing out the detachable plug
cord on the output side of the power supply.

Like all Maxon Nine
Series models, the TOD-9 guitar pedal features mechanical true bypass
switching for direct, unaltered signal in bypass.
