The ICE SCREAM overdrive pedal is designed to push higher gain amps into meltdown. It features a mid boost stage before the gain circuit, allowing you to tune the voicing of the mid boost with the MID knob. The pedal also includes variable low and high cuts to further sculpt your tone and help it cut through the mix.

The inspiration for the ICE SCREAM came from the desire for an OD pedal with the flexible midrange control of the ST9 and the warm drive characteristics of the TS808. The result is a pedal that can push the front-end of a medium gain amp into a tight and punchy high-gain sound.

The ICE SCREAM has rich lows, warm mids, and a sprinkle of cool highs. It offers control over the cutoff frequencies inherent in this style of OD, as well as switchable clipping modes.

The controls on the ICE SCREAM include:

– TONE: Active boost/cut of frequencies above the threshold set by the internal FREQ trimpot.
– DRIVE: Sets the gain in the drive section, ranging from clean boost to high gain saturation.
– LEVEL: Sets the output level of the pedal.
– SW1 (HCC): Internal DIP switch with 4 clipping configurations.
– MID: Shifts the focus of the mid boost stage.
– HI CUT: Sets the amount of post-gain treble cut.
– LO CUT: Sets the amount of pre-gain bass cut.

The pedal also includes internal controls, such as the IMPED trimpot to set the input impedance and the FREQ trimpot to set the cutoff frequency of the boost/cut for the TONE knob.
