Advanced gate circuit for ultra-tight high-gain tones
Few things feel as empowering as cranking up the gain and chugging some palm-muted riffs on your guitar at high volume — and few things sound as sloppy when you're not gating your signal. Thankfully, the BOSS OD-200 Hybrid Drive Pedal that eliminates noise and tightens your sound without deadening your attack transients, eliminating your need for a dedicated gate pedal.
Boost function with your choice of pre- or post-gain operation
Guitarists at Sweetwater know the value of having a boost pedal or two on your pedalboard, and thankfully the BOSS OD-200 offers a boost function with flexibility. Want to boost your volume going into your overdrive or distortion to push it over the edge? Set the boost to pre-gain operation.

These settings are saved with your custom presets, so you can tailor the boost function to every custom patch you create.
