Venus is a real tube overdrive that brings the magic of a legendary tube-driven circuit into a modern, compact format. Inspired by the most iconic tube overdrive pedal in history, Venus delivers everything from smooth, bluesy breakup to fully saturated distortion. Equipped with a high-quality ECC832 tube, Venus offers exceptional dynamic response and tonal flexibility. The three-band EQ provides precise frequency control, while the tube bias knob allows users to shape the compression and saturation of the overdrive. Whether used as a transparent boost or a full-bodied drive, Venus delivers the warmth and harmonic complexity only a real tube circuit can provide.
A switchable line driver/buffer ensures a strong, clear signal throughout the chain, making Venus a reliable choice for both live performances and studio applications. The power-up preset function for the footswitch lets users set their preferred bypass/engage state when powering on the pedal. Designed for players who crave the richness of a tube-driven circuit without the bulk, Venus is the perfect companion for any setup—from vintage amps to modern pedalboards.
