Looking for classic tube-amp-style drive? The TC Electronic MojoMojo overdrive pedal is your ticket to dynamic tube-style bliss. From bluesy breakup to screaming solos and chunky crunch, the MojoMojo covers the spectrum of overdrive boost. Just like a real tube amp, the MojoMojo responds naturally to your guitar's volume, allowing you to control the character of your drive by simply riding the volume knob. With all knobs set at their detented 12 o'clock positions, the MojoMojo provides a perfectly transparent drive with a wholly natural breakup.
What's really cool about this overdrive is that you can tap into the full travel of each control to create excellent-sounding and totally usable overdrive characteristics. Turning up or down the Bass and Treble knobs does more than affect the overdrive tone - it affects the MojoMojo's overall response to different frequencies. More importantly, adjusting the MojoMojo's Drive changes its threshold, rather than arbitrarily adding or removing distortion. This attention to detail is what sets the TC Electronic MojoMojo apart from the majority of overdrive pedals out there.
Designing MojoMojo Overdrive was both very simple and very complex. We knew what we wanted from the start: A pedal that sounds like an amp, with a very open character and little compression allowing even the most subtle of your playing to shine through. We basically set out to capture lightning in a bottle with a clarity that even allowed for complex chords to stand out - did we succeed? Well, plug it in, play one lick, look us in the eye and try to tell us we didn't!
One of the reasons why we've achieved such a dynamic pedal is the fact that we use a special circuit that ramps up the voltage to more than 3-4 times the amount of your typical drive pedals. However, we don't use this added gain to squeeze more overdrive/distortion out of the pedal, but to dramatically increase the headroom and dynamics.The result? The most alive overdrive you have ever heard and a pedal that defines all that is magic about overdriven sounds.
MojoMojo is a very musical pedal, but it needs direction. It'll be up to you to integrate it into your gear via the tone controls. Luckily, MojoMojo sounds great right off the bat and dialing in what you want, from added punch or body to added beef on your leads, is fun and easy.
In essence, an overdrive is something you get from a fully cranked tube amp working hard. Simple, but so dastardly hard to capture. MojoMojo actually succeeded doing this in the most natural and musical of ways and is in fact so 'fat sounding' we added a voicing switch for backing off the bass a bit when used with dark sounding guitars.
