The Twin is a dual gain-stage pedal built around how gain stages interact, not just how loud they get, but how they shape feel, compression, and breakup.
Each side is a complete gain stage in its own right. One is voiced for cleaner boosts and low-gain overdrive. The other introduces bias-driven gain and compression, adding texture, bite and a touch of instability as you push it.
In this new version, the two sides can run in series or parallel, which fundamentally changes the response:
Series: one stage drives the other, increasing saturation, compression, and harmonic density. This is where it starts to feel thicker, more driven, and can edge into fuzz-like textures.
Parallel: both stages run alongside each other and are blended together. This keeps more clarity and dynamics, with a wider, more open feel and less cumulative compression.
Used individually, each side can act as a subtle lift or a characterful drive. Used together, they move from articulate gain shaping to complex, interacting breakup depending on how you set them.
A cut switch helps tame high-end harshness when stacking gain or running brighter setups, while the added attenuator lets you push the internal gain stages harder at lower output levels, shifting the Twin from a pure boost into more controlled overdrive territory.
