The World’s Most Infamous Overdrive, Controlled From Your Guitar’s Volume Knob
The Halcyon Gold Overdrive is an adaptive overdrive pedal featuring proprietary Adaptive Circuitry. This unique design allows it to adapt its voicing in response to pick attack and volume changes, making it one of the most dynamic and interactive overdrives out there. While it is inspired by a certain rare and sought-after pedal, this is by no means a clone. Origin has gone to great lengths to recreate the exact characteristics of unobtainable vintage diodes and also built in some innovative features that go beyond the capabilities of the original.
Origin based this pedal on the Klon Centaur because it’s an all-time classic. Its clarity, dynamics and unique clean blend make it an excellent choice for players who like their overdrive pedals to have a more natural quality, capable of pushing the front end of any great amp. The all-too-frequently used term “transparent overdrive” really started with the Centaur – and it thoroughly deserves that reputation.
The Halcyon Gold Overdrive picks up where the Klon leaves off, adding even more playability to this players’ favorite. The signature mid-hump now responds to playing dynamics and volume knob changes, and Origin has even included their own smoother, more neutral voicing too. Add in an adjustable DRY control and you have an undeniably classic sound with way more variety.
BOOM!
BOOM!
