The OD-200’s next-generation hybrid design seamlessly brings analog and digital clipping circuits together for the best of all worlds` putting a universe of expressive drive colors under your fingers. Twelve modes offer a variety of premium overdrive` fuzz` and distortion sounds` including a high-gain Brown mode derived from the acclaimed Katana amplifier series. And with the three high-performance “X” drive modes powered by BOSS’s cutting-edge MDP tech` you’ll experience enhanced definition` clarity` and dynamic response that’s perfect for modern playing styles.
While each of the OD-200’s 12 main drive modes sound fantastic on their own` you’re able to craft tones even further with 15 switchable boost circuits. Placing the boost in series lets you create traditional stacked drive voices` complete with post-gain level to balance with the bypassed sound or kick up the volume for solos. The boost circuit can also be used in parallel with the main mode` enabling side-by-side blending for an unlimited range of unique drive textures.
With its integrated gate circuit` the OD-200 always keeps your signal clear and quiet when you’re not playing. The default setting is a great starting point` providing gentle` transparent gating that works well for general playing styles. The decay and threshold controls can also be adjusted for super-fast gate performance when needed` perfect for bringing tightness to heavy modern styles that combine full-throttle gain with precision staccato riffing.
The OD-200 offers a ton of advanced capabilities` but remains as simple to use as any regular distortion stomp. With dedicated controls` you can quickly dial in the gain and overall level for any selected mode` then sculpt the tone with wide-ranging low` mid` and high EQ. There’s also a multi-function parameter knob` which changes operation based on the group selected with the panel’s parameter switch and LED status indicators.
After perfecting your tone with the drive` boost` and gate parameters` simply save the entire setup to one of four onboard memories for quick recall while performing. There’s also a Manual setting that reflects the current panel status` giving you an additional drive setup to choose from on the fly. You can scroll through memories with an OD-200 footswitch` and it’s also possible to limit the scrolling range or assign memories directly for even faster access.
By default` the OD-200’s multi-function footswitches control bypass` boost on/off` and memory scrolling` but you can easily reassign them to alternate functions as needed. External control of nearly any parameter is possible using footswitches or an expression pedal` and MIDI I/O is even provided on space-saving mini TRS jacks. Via MIDI` you’re able to chain multiple 200 series pedals and select memories on all of them at once` and also control various functions from MIDI devices like the ES-8 and ES-5 effects switchers.
