"Little Diddy Blues" Matt Marshak used his Ethos TLE and recorded this piece directly into a MAC computer. No guitar amp was used. (See our Links Page for more info on Matt.)









The Ethos Overdrive
was inspired by one of the most sought after boutique guitar amplifiers
ever made. Extensive time and attention to detail were required to
emulate the tone and responsiveness of this amplifier.
The
key to the Ethos tone, is its ability to transition from clean to
overdriven tones just by the articulation of the guitar pick or guitar
volume control. The Ethos not only offers great tone and touch
sensitivity, but also provides a high degree of flexibility in one
compact package. It provides two independent channels with an integral
boost function resulting in 3 different foot switch selectable sounds.
Ethos Overdrive Excels in Many Applications:
- 2 Independent Channels added to your guitar amp
- Direct Interface for PA, Studio, PC, Direct Recording
For more details please refer to the Ethos Overdrive User's Manual.
- Preamp for a power amp/speaker combination
