Special Cranker Video Manual “An Overdrive You Can Trust“ | EarthQuaker Devices

Hello EarthQuakers, We are back with a deep dive into our latest pedal, the Special Cranker, an all-discrete analog distortion enhancement device. Some pedal lovers out there may wonder why anyone would need a manual for an overdrive. “Aren’t all overdrives essentially “Turn it up to make sound louder!“ Well, Special Cranker isn’t just any old overdrive. Instead, it’s a versatile stompbox that works to boost and enhance your instrument’s signal with a bit of grit while not obliterating your amp’s natural tone. A unique feature is the diode selector switch allowing you to choose between the softer and rounder germanium or the brighter and edgier silicon tone. In either mode, you’ll get an enhanced version of your signature tone that you can control. The Special Cranker is a medium-gain drive designed not to dominate your sound. Instead, it acts as a sonic tool in your pedal arsenal, offering more options for tone sculpting. Also, it can flat-out rock. So, please nod your head approvingly as we walk you through a few ways you can use the Special Cranker to augment and refine your already killer tone on any instrument.
