The Sunn O))) Life Pedal circuit has been meticulously tweaked from the original to squeeze every last drop of heavy crushing tone available. The octave section has been fine tuned to make it more pronounced without losing the bottom end and we added a third footswitch, utilizing Flexi-Switch Technology®, for the octave to allow an additional method of quick and radical tone shaping. We are excited to have this back in permanent production, it is a true labor of love.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul style=\"\" sans helvetica sans-serif revert\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong style=\"\"\u003eOctave\u003c\/strong\u003e: This blends in the analog octave as you turn it clockwise.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong style=\"\"\u003eDistortion\u003c\/strong\u003e: Turn clockwise for more distortion, counterclockwise for less.
