The Halcyon Green Overdrive features Origin Effects' new "Adaptive" circuitry. This unique design allows this simple yet exquisite-sounding stompbox to adapt its voicing in response to your picking attack and volume changes — making it one of the most dynamic and interactive overdrives out there! Origin Effects used the legendary Ibanez® TS808 Tube Screamer® as a starting point, but their Halcyon Green pedal is much more than just another clone.

Mean, Green "Adaptive" Overdrive!

The Ibanez Tube Screamer® is an all-time classic for a reason. Its mid-forward voicing, low-gain drive, and a touch of clean signal make it a great choice for pushing an amp — allowing players to jump out of the mix for a solo. But when you turn down your guitar's volume pot or play softly, then that mid-pushed drive tone becomes a thin, nasal clean tone that's not very musical. It’s the "all or nothing" nature of classic drive circuits that have us stacking numerous pedals for various shades of saturation.

Origin Effects' proprietary 'Adapt' switch allows this mid-forward voicing to gradually fade away as the pedal cleans up; giving you classic TS808 tone with your guitar cranked, but revealing the full spectrum of your clean tone as you roll back the volume knob. Essentially, you can directly influence how "on" the pedal is by adjusting your guitar volume or playing dynamics. Neat!

Extra Tone-Shaping Functions

Despite Origin Effects labelling their Halcyon Green Overdrive as their "simplest" stompbox yet, there are still plenty of features beyond those of the original pedal — with two 'Adapt' settings, a 'Dry' level control for adjusting the clean signal, and a choice of 'Voice' settings. Select '808' for the classic TS808 mid hump, or 'Mod' for a brighter and more focused presence peak, which works great when tightening up high-gain tones or adding extra bite to humbuckers. Of course, all the sounds of the stock TS808 are available too, should you want them, recreated with Origin-level accuracy!

Effects — An effect is a modification applied to the instrument’s sound to alter its tonal characteristics, dynamics, or spatial properties. Effects can be achieved through electronic devices such as pedals, processors, or built-in effects units, and they offer a wide range of sonic possibilities. Musicians use effects to enhance their sound, create unique textures, and expand the expressive capabilities of their instruments across various musical genres.. Green. Guitar Pedals. Halcyon. New. Overdrive — Like a golden layer of melted cheese — warm, gooey, and just put it all over. It adds just the right amount of richness and grit, turning a clean signal into something smooth and savoury. Designed to mimic the natural breakup of a tube amp pushed to its sweet spot, overdrive delivers the flavour of classic rock and blues in every bite. From creamy mid-gain warmth to crisp edge-of-breakup sparkle, it’s the comfort food of guitar tone — simple, satisfying, and endlessly versatile. Whether it’s a mild crunch or a full-bodied roar, overdrive is where good taste begins.. Pedal — Your pedal is like a signature dish for your sound — a flavour-packed creation that transforms the bland ingredients of your guitar into something unforgettable. Each one adds its own seasoning, texture, and heat, turning a simple meal into a feast of tone. These tasty little boxes sit in a row, like plates on a buffet, letting you mix and match flavours as you play. With one tap of your foot, you can swap sweet for spicy, subtle for smoky, and serve up something completely new.

Collecting, trading, and discovering new flavours soon becomes part of the joy of being a tone-loving gourmet geek with a guitar..
