Description

The TD-Y Version 3 by PastFx is a versatile low to medium gain overdrive, boost, and equaliser capable of rich, complex tone-sculpting characteristics.

Now with 3 way diode clipping switch, mids control and a new push button switch which reverts the pedal back to the original 4 knob circuit.

The PastFx TD-Y is a faithful reproduction of the now discontinued Buffalo FX TD-X Equaliser and Gain Booster pedal.

The PastFx TD-Y is a clean or dirty boost, or as a satisfyingly rich and complex overdrive.

There is plenty of headroom on tap to allow players to generate great tones from the pedal alone or by using it to push their amplifiers over the top.

The PastFx TD-Y can go from beautiful, blooming low gain creaminess all the way up to medium gain distortion and early British amp characteristics, especially working in tandem with an amplifier’s character and playing environment.

Specs:

Controls for Gain, Level, Bass, Mids and Treble to shape the sonic character of the effect. True bypass operation.

New external 3 way toggle switch to select symmetrical V1 (factory default) or new V2 clipping option

and a middle position, which removes diode clipping, resulting in less compression and a slight volume boost.

New Push Button switch. When depressed, the mids control is removed from the pedal and the circuit returns to the original V1 4 knob design.

Dimmable LED, internally adjustable.

Requires a 9vDC centre negative tip power supply, drawing only 5.5 mA current.

Dimensions: 112 x 60 x 31mm / 4.4" x 2.36" x 1.22" (enclosure only)

Input impedance: 1 MΩ

Neutrik Instrument jacks, with audiophile grade parts sourced from MMK, Wima, Epcos, Vishay, Panasonic, Nichicon, etc., just like its predecessor.
