Wampler Plexi Drive Deluxe overdrive effectpedaal Wampler Plexi Drive Deluxe quick reference guide

Deluxe
The Plexi-Drive Deluxe, is a direct descendent of the Plexi-Drive Standard but with a few upgraded features. Like the original, the Plexi-Drive Deluxe's unique gain structure can cover everything from Vintage '68 style Plexi tones to the all out massive rock tones of a JTM-45®.
With the addition of an all-new active 3 band Bass/Mids/Treble EQ stack – you can now have even more tonal control. With the bass boost option, you can emulate the feeling of the low-end thump of a 4x12” cabinet (or two) at the flick of a switch. The bass boost will allow you to dial in your low end at lower volume gigs or at bedroom volume levels. Along with the bass switch, we added a bright switch to add highs – which makes changing from bright to dark guitars a breeze. The Plexi-Drive Deluxe also features a one knob, pre-gain boost that is voiced like that "famous overdrive with pronounced mids” – to help push your leads in to overdrive.
The Plexi-Drive Deluxe will fill your Marshall® void and give you the crunch, response, boost, and feeling that your rig begs for. Whether you are playing sold out shows or rocking out by yourself – the Plexi-Drive Deluxe will take your tone and allow you to create your own flavor of rock!
To get the most out of your new pedal, you'll want to become very familiar with the controls. The Plexi-Drive Deluxe has a straightforward control scheme, and doesn't take a great deal of time to understand, but there are some subtleties to how it works its magic that should be explained. There is a volume (level), main gain (post gain), 3 band EQ and boost (pre gain) - with the two switches (bass boost and bright boost) you can get almost any Mar­shall® tone through your rig!
It is worth spending a little time playing with how the EQ reacts to differing gain levels as well as what effect the switches have... It’s all good fun!
Volume: This control adjusts the output level of the Plexi-Drive Deluxe.
Bass: Adjusts the amount of bass applied to the effected signal. If you are using a Stratocaster® style,
single coil guitar rather than a humbucker loaded instrument, you may _nd you need more bass to “fatten” up the tone. When in the fully counterclockwise position, the tone will be much thinner and brighter and when fully clockwise it will be fuller, darker and heavier around the low end.
Mids: Adjusts the total amount of midrange that is applied to the effected signal. You have more control over how much or how little you choose to dial in.
Treble: Works in the same way as the bass and mids knob, but controls the amount of treble on the effected signal. Again, fully counterclockwise the treble is reduced considerably and clockwise brings it forward.
Bass Boost Switch: This switch offers an added level of control over the lower frequencies of the pedal by allowing you to kick in a niece low end “thump”. Great for fattening up single coils, making small cabinets sound big, or getting the most from the higher tone knob setting.
Bright Boost Switch: Opposite of the bass boost switch is the bright boost switch. This switch will allow you to add higher frequencies “brighten up” otherwise seemingly dark pickups or amps.
Post gain knob: this knob saturates the circuit with a lovely warm overdrive designed to give you those famous powerfull tones that you love.
Pre gain knob: this knob will allow you to dial in that famous “mid-range” overdrive boost to hit the front end of the main gain channel. (Note – 3 band EQ will not effect the boost channel)
Suggested Settings

Post Gain switch: This bypass switch is used to engage the main Plexi-drive gain stage of the pedal. We use a true-bypass relay because it utilizes a quieter and smoother switch that is more reliable than traditional bypass switches. Your original tone/signal will remain unaffected when the pedal is not engaged.
