Paladin Distortion is a solid state distortion pedal offered by Fearsome Sound.
High frequency Charge Pump power supply technology means the on-board solid state chip circuitry is provided with dual (positive and negative) voltages - the optimum environment for audio applications.
Distortion's high impedance input is designed to accept your instrument or pedalboard signal chain output.
Two independent, level controls are provided:
Drive - controls the distortion level impressed on your guitar signal.
Volume - low impedance output level control designed to drive the input of an instrument amplifier or the unbalanced input of an audio board or computer recording interface.
The Tone Stack
The passive tone stack provides control of treble and bass boost and cut. The Tone Stack has essentially no effect on your signal when the controls are in the 12 o’clock position.
The Enclosure
Paladin Distortion is housed in a Hammond 1550C cast aluminum box. Dimensions are stompbox typical: Length 115mm (4.53in) x Width 90.0mm (3.54in) x Height 55.2 mm (2.17in).
Distortion Power Requirements
Distortion requires a typical Stompbox 9vdc center negative voltage supply - either a dedicated wall wart or a power line from your multi tap pedal board power supply. Preamp is not battery powered.
