VALVENERGY COPPERHEAD DRIVE
Iconic amp sounds for your pedalboard. The Copperhead valve distortion pedal recreates the classic full stack amp tone, used for the powerful sound of hard rock in the 80s. Use it for lightly overdriven tones or thick distortion.
Three output modes - standard pedal, line-level preamp, and direct amp-sim with built-in analogue cabinet simulator - offer versatility for transforming your sound. Use STANDARD mode with your guitar rig or PREAMP or CAB-SIM mode for recording into your audio interface and dial in the perfect sound with the all-analogue design and active EQ.
The Channel Link feature allows you to chain two or more Valvenergy pedals together, through the Link jack of each pedal. Using a with a standard 1/8” stereo cable will link 2 pedals, and using a stereo 1/8” splitter will link 3 or 4 pedals. This allows you to turn one pedal on while bypassing the others, as if you were switching between channels of a guitar amp.
These pedals are equipped with a high-contrast OLED display showing an oscilloscope, a visual indication of how the waveform is affected by the knob settings. This display allows shows which mode you are currently using.
