Overdrive Pedals
Overdrive uses soft or moderate clipping to add harmonics and compression while retaining more of the original note shape than heavy distortion. Some circuits emphasise the midrange and trim bass before clipping; others remain broad, transparent or amplifier-like. Gain, clipping arrangement, headroom and tone filtering decide whether it supplies a light edge, a saturated drive sound or extra push into another gain stage.

Distortion
Clips the waveform firmly and adds a dense series of harmonics with compression and sustain. The clipping devices, gain stages and tone filters determine whether the result is tight, smooth, mid-focused, scooped, grainy or deliberately abrasive.
