Transparent Overdrive & Clean Boost
The Soul Food uses boosted internal power rails for increased headroom and definition.
Keep Drive low and raise Volume for a clear boost, or increase Drive for progressively stronger overdrive and extra midrange presence.
The internal bypass switch lets you choose true bypass or buffered bypass, making it easy to suit different pedalboard setups.
