Guitar effects question. What is the difference between distortion and overdrive?
Well? Also any recommendations?
Distortion is an important part of an electric guitar's sound in many genres, particularly for rock, hard rock, and metal. A distortion pedal takes a normal electric guitar signal and distorts the signal's waveform by "clipping" the signal. There are several different types of distortion effects, each with distinct sonic characteristics. These include regular distortion, overdrive (or vacuum tube-style distortion), and "fuzz".
Although most distortion devices use solid-state circuitry, some "tube distortion" pedals are designed with preamplifier vacuum tubes. In some cases, tube distortion pedals use power tubes or a preamp tube used as a power tube driving a built-in "dummy load." Distortion pedals designed specifically for bass guitar are also available. Some decent distortion pedals include:
Boss DS-1
Pro Co RAT
Marshall ShredMaster
Line 6 Dr. Distorto
T-Rex Engineering's Bloody Mary
Overdrive
Some distortion effects provide an "overdrive" effect. Either by using a vacuum tube, or by using simulated tube modelling techniques, the top of the wave form is compressed, thus giving a smoother distorted signal than regular distortion effects. When an overdrive effect is used at a high setting, the sound's waveform can become clipped, which imparts a gritty or "dirty" tone, which sounds like a tube amplifier "driven" to its limit. Some good overdrive pedals include:
Ibanez Tube Screamer
Boss SD-1
Line 6 Crunchtone
