The Pigtronix OFO Disnortion features three elements: a touch sensitive Overdrive, a Fuzz with 6 different filters, and a frequency doubler named Octava. Each effect is an original design and can each be used independently or in combinations to forge a tremendous range of musically responsive distortion sounds.

The Octava is wired in series before the Overdrive and Fuzz, allowing the pedal to produce a unique type of gated, gnarly grind that is absolutely devastating.

An additional buffered output provides a clean signal for parallel processing, direct recording or a side-chain trigger source for the Pigtronix EP-1.

• Overdrive – The Pigtronix Overdrive responds to the dynamics of your playing using a proprietary, 6-stage gain architecture that retains the natural tone of your instrument, adding tube-like breakup as you play louder. This circuit is so touch sensitive, it has been described as “...more tube than tube.” You must hear it to believe it! From Clean or Gritty Boost right up through Plexi roar, the Pigtronix Overdrive is truly musical Overdrive.
   
• Fuzz – Massive Gain, Full Bodied Sustain and Flexible Tone Shapes define the Disnortion's FUZZ effect. Pigtronix’s unique diode-clipping architecture provides plenty of compression and controllable feedback while preserving the dynamics of your playing style. The rotary tone control switch provides 6 musical EQ curves: Bass, Scoop, Treble, Smooth, F.A.T., and Full Range. The Pigtronix Fuzz can go from clean pre-amp duty to Hair Raising, Shred Fisted, Freak Out Pandemonium!
   
• Octava – This frequency doubler effect makes the notes you play sound one octave up. A Filter control allows you to achieve singing octave up tones without adjusting your guitar’s tone control. Stable intervals such as 4ths and power chords result in knarly, tweezed out grind, while other intervals create ring-modulator textures in all registers. The Octava is wired in series with the other two effects for harmonic filled lead tones and outlandish bizarre crunch.

Because of the complex switching that is necessary to make the OFO do all that it does, true bypass was not possible in this design. The OFO must be powered up for audio to pass through the pedal. When the unit is bypassed, there is no degradation of the audio signal.
