Description

The Kernom Ridge Augmented Analog Overdrive Pedal is In stock available now for fast UK delivery online for £269 + Delivery. This excellent piece of kit is manufactured by Kernom and in New condition and comes with a great warranty.

The Kernom Ridge is the word's first augmented overdrive, boasting an unlimited number of 100% pure analogue clipping options in one circuit. Built on Kernom's unique patented "Analog Morphing Core" technology, the Ridge features powerful pre and post clipping EQ sections and full MIDI compatibility, giving it all the potential to replace any number of different overdrive pedals in your rig! From transparent clean boosts, to mid-punchy "screamer" style overdrives, thick, chewy fuzzes to searing high gains, the Kernom Ridge can do it all with devastating accuracy. Think of it like an amp modeller, only for your overdrive pedals!

The secret to the Ridge's infinite drive options lies in its "Mood" knob, a powerful control that drastically alters the clipping style of the overdrive. Whether you prefer symmetrical, asymmetrical, high headroom or heavily compressed clipping, the Ridge is a never-ending journey through overdrive flavours! Turning the "Mood" knob from left to right unlocks the following overdrive options:

  1. Very clean and open sound, zero to light, soft clipping
  2. Transparent and highly dynamic overdrive
  3. More pronounced, coloured overdrive
  4. High gain monster
  5. Almost fuzz like, characterful sound

The Ridge's Chameleon EQ section puts a host of tone tweaking options at your fingertips, letting you chose between complete transparency at any gain setting, and colouring your sound to suit your playing. The "Pre" knob determines how Ridge interacts with your amp while the "Post" knob controls how much you cut through or sit in the mix. And if all of that wasn't enough, the Ridge comes pre-loaded with a heap of super-useable presets, accessible via MIDI! Simply plug in an external MIDI switcher and recall 128 different presets to cover all of your overdrive needs. Take things even further by connecting an external controller and change the Ridge's internal parameters in real time! The possibilities really are endless!

Analog

Analog guitar pedals are known for their warm, organic, and often slightly “imperfect” sound characteristics. They can add harmonic richness, subtle saturation, and musicality to the guitar signal, which many players find appealing. Analog pedals often have a more straightforward operation and tend to interact more dynamically with the player’s touch and guitar’s volume and tone controls.

However, analog pedals can also be more prone to noise, have limited control options compared to digital counterparts, and may lack features like preset storage or advanced modulation effects. Nevertheless, many guitarists prefer analog pedals for their vintage tone, simplicity, and the tactile experience they provide.

Examples of popular analog guitar pedals include the Ibanez Tube Screamer (overdrive), Electro-Harmonix Small Clone (chorus), and MXR Phase 90 (phaser).

Guitar Effect Pedal

Overdrive

Overdrive is a type of guitar effect that simulates the natural distortion that occurs when a tube amplifier is pushed beyond its clean limit. Overdrive pedals achieve this by boosting the input signal of the guitar, causing the amplifier to saturate and produce a warm, saturated, and crunchy sound.

Overdrive pedals are commonly used in various styles of music, including rock, blues, and punk, to add grit, sustain, and harmonic richness to the guitar’s sound. They are versatile tools that can be used to achieve a wide range of tones, from subtle breakup to full-on distortion, depending on the settings and the amplifier being used. Some classic examples of overdrive pedals include the Ibanez Tube Screamer, the Boss OD-1, and the Fulltone OCD, among others
