Origin Effects | M-EQ Driver | Mid Booster & Overdrive | w/ Mid Switch & Adaptive Circuitry | Inspired by Pultec EQ

Heavily inspired by one of the most legendary equalizer units in history, the Origin Effects M-EQ Driver Mid Booster and Drive pedal is teeming with analog warmth and tube-style harmonic saturation. This transformer-equipped stompbox sports overdrive-standard Level and Drive controls — capable of everything from a slight rasp to roaring crunch tones. However, the real star of the show here is the 3-way KCS switch. What does it do? Well, after all, the M-EQ driver is a “Mid Booster,” but the KCS switch unlocks an even greater level of fine-tuning, allowing you to choose between three midrange frequencies to boost for enhanced sonic flexibility. Moreover, the Cut knob utilizes Origin Effects’ cutting-edge Adaptive Circuitry to reduce high-end roll-off when the M-EQ Driver cleans up. This feature is ideal for dynamic transitions between rich, warm overdrive and shimmering clean tones. Looking for an overdrive with incredible tone-shaping potential and a healthy dose of vintage vibe? Look no further than the Origin Effects M-EQ Driver!

3-position mid-shaping control

While the M-EQ driver’s deep, harmonic-rich overdrive is sure to win over many a guitarist, the feature that really sets this stompbox apart from the pack is the endlessly versatile KCS switch. This 3-way switch is the key to the M-EQ’s mid-shaping abilities, further enhancing the M-EQ’s precision by allowing you to choose where your midrange is boosted, in addition to the level of boost. Plus, the M-EQ is directly inspired by one of the most monumental studio equalizer units in recording history, with a highly musical EQ curve that beautifully captures the feel and sonic magic of the original unit. From classic mid-hump overdrive to sharp cocked wah distortion, the ME-Q’s extensive tone-sculpting power delivers a massive range of fierce overdrive tones!
