MixWave have released 1981 DRV, available at the intro price of £38.20 / $49.00, increasing to £61.58 / $79.00 after the promotion. The offer ends November 18th.
Born from a meticulous design process spanning over three years, the 1981 Inventions DRV pedal has earned reputation for its clarity, warmth, and versatility. In partnership with 1981 Inventions, we bring that unmistakable tone to the digital world.
Utilizing our component-level modeling, the distinct sonic character of the iconic DRV has been faithfully recreated in plugin form.
At the core of the DRV is a dual-circuit design, combining a distortion circuit and a preamp boost for ample headroom and smooth distortion. These circuits capture the pedal’s signature midrange push and thickness, evoking a vintage feel reminiscent of classic ribbon mics. The DRV’s tonal flexibility and added digital features make it a versatile tool not only for guitarists but also for various tracks and busses within a mix.
DRV’s highly interactive DRV and CUT controls provide a wide range of tones. The DRV knob allows you to adjust the distortion level, from lower gain drive to aggressive, fuzz-like saturation. The CUT knob shapes the high frequencies, letting you fine-tune the treble and balance the overall tonal character. These controls work together seamlessly, shaping your tone with ease and precision.
Exclusive plugin-only features enhance this overdrive for modern workflows. Get instant parallel processing with wet/dry mix controls, and use the input and output filters to high-pass or low-pass before and after the signal.
1981 DRV.is available to PC and Mac users (VST3, AU and AAX) and requires an iLok account.
