We're now offering a mini version of our steel-friendly overdrive pedal, the Earth Drive. Same sound, same circuit, but no internal battery, runs on a 9v power supply. MUCH smaller.

Brad -
Where would the Earth Drive/Earth Drive mini be placed in a signal chain that utilizes the Sarno Black Box?
Thanks for any input/suggestion! |

Hey Greg. It would go after the Black Box, and depending on the type of overdrive effect you want, you can place it before OR after the volume pedal.
Placed before the VP, you get a consistent and even amount of overdrive and have total control of the volume with the VP
Placed after the VP, you get more overdrive the louder you move the VP. You also lose a lot of volume control this way since the VP becomes more of a controller of the amount of overdrive but not really a master volume control. This effect is more like what you'd get by overdriving an amp, the louder you play, the dirtier the overdrive.

| Yes! I can’t see on the two pix on page. Please tell me the power input is in a better spot and I’ll buy one! Great pedal. Set it up every gig for steel. But if inputs still on side bated breath that at least the power input more convenient? |
