Impact Soundworks Deputy Distortion (Digitales Produkt)

Deputy Distortion

Experience the classic hard rock distortion of the ’80s with Deputy Distortion. This pedal delivers a brash, punchy sound that is perfect for heavy guitar riffs, smashing drums, and thick synths. With the ability to push from a pleasant crunch to extreme circuit-blown aggression, it captures the essence of the British roar.

Living, Breathing Tone-Shaping

The frequency response of Deputy Distortion is dynamic and interactive. At its core lies a passive three-band tonestack (Low, Mid, High) that emulates the behavior of iconic British hardware. Unlike a clean digital EQ that boosts isolated frequencies, these controls interact to shape the saturation profile as you adjust them.

• Low: Adds foundational weight and warm thickness without muddying the low frequencies.
• Mid & High: Provides an aggressive midrange voice and crisp edge to bring sounds forward.
• Deep: Injects low-end resonance and structural girth for an acoustic thump you can feel.
• Sizzle: A custom post-clipping exciter that generates new harmonic content from 2kHz and above, adding premium edge, air, and bite.

Enhanced Controls to Tame the Beast

Drive Deputy Distortion as hard as you need, then use the onboard Mix knob to achieve seamless parallel saturation. The Volume Link option allows you to experiment with tone without drastically changing the output volume. Enjoy natural compression and hard clipping from the tube circuitry, while the adjustable Dynamic Follow helps preserve hidden details, keeping punches and spikes intact without sacrificing saturation and harmonics.

The True Sound of British Tubes

At the heart of Deputy Distortion is a legendary Marshall tube circuit, neural-modeled for an authentic experience. Enjoy dynamic sag, range, response, and immediate attack that all sound and feel like real analog hardware. Dial it back for a crunchy overdrive sound or push it to unleash a full, fire-breathing roar.
