The M-EQ Driver from Origin Effects is a mid booster and drive pedal, drawing inspiration from vintage Pultec® studio EQs from the 1950s. Known for their highly versatile and musical EQ curves, Pultec® EQs can be heard on thousands of hit records. The M-EQ Driver is a reimagined version of the classic studio EQ and has been optimised for guitar, all the while capturing the harmonically-rich magic of the original!

This M-EQ Driver offers a range of mid-focussed tones, from a subtle mid boost to thick, resonant overdrive, making it a versatile addition to your rig. It also comes loaded with the Adaptive Circuitry found in Origin Effects' Halcyon Green Overdrive. This unique technology allows for a smooth transition from warm overdrive to bright clean tones and responds nicely to volume changes and playing dynamics.

Continuing with Origin Effects' tradition of vintage, studio-inspired tones in modern guitar pedals, the M-EQ Driver is hand built in the UK using premium components.

EQ Pedals

EQ pedals allow you to boost or cut specific frequency ranges, giving precise control over the shape of your guitar or bass tone. They can brighten a dark amp, tame harshness, add midrange focus or tighten low frequencies before a drive pedal.

Although they are less flashy than many effects, EQ pedals are powerful problem-solvers. They can help different guitars work with the same amp, make solos stand out, or fine-tune a pedalboard for different rooms, recordings and live mixes.

Guitar Pedals

Guitar Pedals is a useful category for players looking to shape their guitar or bass sound in a more focused way. Products in this area can help with tone, control, routing, performance or creative sound design depending on the exact type of gear involved.

For anyone building a pedalboard, guitar pedals options can help fill a specific gap in the signal chain or open up new sounds that are difficult to achieve with an amp alone. They are worth exploring when you want a more personal, flexible and practical setup.

Guitar Pedal

Guitar Pedal pedals and related effects are commonly used by guitarists looking to shape their tone in a more focused and creative way. Different designs offer their own response, feel and tonal character depending on the style of music and the type of amplifier or guitar being used.

Many players build pedalboards gradually over time, combining different effects and utilities to create a setup that suits their own sound and workflow. Guitar Pedal related gear can play an important role in both live performance and studio recording.
