General

The Finnish brand Mad Professor Amplification have been making amplifiers and pedals of exceptional quality since 2002. Their Factory Series produces the same class at an affordable price. The Royal Blue Overdrive is a stylish and rugged stomp box that produces a wide range of distortion. At the drive potentiometer's lowest setting, this Mad Professor pedal can even be used as an equalizer.

Mad Professor Royal Blue Overdrive Factory: high dynamic sensitivity

The Royal Blue Overdrive has a very high dynamic response; the more powerful you strum, the more overdrive you'll get. Play softer, and the sound of your guitar will get a mildly rough edge. This kind of high-grade dynamic response really lets you put your heart into your playing. The core sound is determined using the volume and drive potentiometers. Drive sets the level of distortion, while volume adjusts the output level of the pedal.

Traditional and modern overdrive

The two other potentiometers allow for the difference between a traditional or modern overdrive sounds. The bass and treble controls allow you to adjust the low and high tones. Turn the treble up and this potentiometer will become a presence control by adding more sparkle to the sound. Do the same with the bass control to add a resonance that simulates the sound of a standard 4x12 speaker cabinet.

Sinds kort ben ik een grote Mad Professor fan. Dit is een top pedaal. Geweldige sound, goed instelbaar en zeer aanslag gevoelig. Niet van de goedkoopste,maar zeker zijn prijs waard. Een echte aanrader. Groetjes Pat

Dit pedaal is een mooi en goed gebouwde overdrive. Ik gebruik het pedaal (met de drive op 12u, de volume, bass en treble rond de 9u) met een Boss superoverdrive, dit vind ik echt een aanrader. Door de aanslaggevoeligheid kan je met meer 'gevoel' spelen, en dat vind ik een groot voordeel. Verder is de behuizing erg stevig en dus makkelijk te vervoeren. De kwaliteit/prijs verhouding is prima. Je krijgt veel voor je geld!

Zeer tevreden met dit paarse (!) overdrive pedaal.

Het voelt stevig en degelijk aan, met idem knoppen en on/off switch.
Net zoals in de productinformatie staat is dit pedaaltje heerlijk touch sensitive. Wanneer je de snaren van je gitaar zacht aanslaat of je volumeknop op je gitaar terug draait, kan je een bijna clean geluid laten klinken.
Het pedaal is ook zeer transparant. Zeker met de treble en bass knoppen op 12 uur. Maar je kan net zo makkelijk een mid boost of een heel vol/vet geluid creëren door deze knoppen respectievelijk helemaal terug of juist vol open te draaien.
Zelf gebruik ik het pedaaltje voor mijn buizenversterker (die net op het randje van breken staat) met de drive op iets voor 12 uur, bass op 2 u en treble iets over 12 u voor vol overdrive geluid zonder veel sustain.
Ik kan de Mad Professor Royal Blue Overdrive zeker aanbevelen!

Bestellen bij en bezorging door Bax-Shop ook weer helemaal naar tevredenheid verlopen.
