The Boss SD-1 Super Overdrive Pedal with Power Supply is the essential overdrive for pros and beginners alike. Earning itself legendary status based on 40 years of peerless performance – this is easily the most unique overdrive pedal on the market. All thanks to clever asymmetrical clipping. Most overdrive pedals clip symmetrically giving a slightly thinner sound – thats because asymmetrical clipping creates more harmonic overtones. This gives a richer thicker sound overall. Its a design feature which is patented by Boss (Roland) meaning the SD-1 is the only overdrive pedal that can offer this incredible tonal secret. And all this iconic tone comes included with a Boss PSA-230 too. So you not only receive a pedal with serious sonic attitude and versatility but an official Boss Power Supply with almost 10 feet of cable length giving you immense performing freedom both tonally and physically.

Pedal Power Supplies

A pedal power supply converts mains or battery power into the regulated DC outputs required by an effects board. True isolated outputs break ground paths and reduce interaction between pedals, while daisy chains share a common supply. Each output must match voltage, polarity and current demand; switchable voltages, high-current sockets, IEC or external adapters and mounting dimensions affect compatibility.

Overdrive

Uses moderate clipping and gain-dependent compression to add harmonics while retaining much of the original note contour. Bass filtering, mid emphasis, clipping symmetry and available headroom decide whether it sounds open and amplifier-like, tightly focused or heavily saturated.
