TRIPLE DECKER

€490.00

TRIPLE DECKER is an overdrive, evolution of the famous Double Decker. Our goal is to offer the best sounds in a compact format and size. The great experience and knowledge of Guglielmo (The Guru) decide to create not a simple “re-edition” of that fantastic “Overdrive” but an improved and more complete evolution.

3CH MIDI GUITAR PREAMP

Triple Decker maintains the same principles of Double Decker while offering even greater performance. It is inspired to the Plexi overdriven
sounds and offers: Three Channels + Boost and Mute in a compact pedal size. It’s fully analog sound and is “easy to use” thanks to the internal “midi relay switcher” which allows you to recall and store some important functions. You can store on your favourite presets: 3 Channel, 3 Boost (one for each Channel) and the Mute.

Triple Decker can be used as a Pedal by connecting it to the amp-head input, or as “Preamp” connecting it to the final power amplifiers. You can also use it without amplifier, simply connecting the “Rec/Out” output to mixer or external recording devices.

ATTENTION! The peak current of the tube in the preheating phase can exceed 1A (1000mA). This product is equipped with an internal voltage doubler circuit. For this reason it’s necessary to use a stabilized power supply capable of guaranteeing a maximum working voltage of 12VDC with 500mA continuous.

3 Channels + solo in pedal or preamp mode; 3 Channels + solo in “Rec. out” mode.

Extreme Audio Quality: great linearity of the signal designed with a a new valve preamplifier combined with a professional hi-Z IC. The sound has excellent benefits.

It’s equipped with midi switcher controller and may be possible to store: Ch1, Ch1+Solo; Ch2, Ch2+Solo, Ch3, Ch3+Solo; Mute.

Triple Decker has increased the gain stages on Channel 2 in order to offer distortion typical of the best tube amplifiers with surprising dynamics. The choice to use a higher number of stages was chosen not to have greater gain but to get a greater wall of sound and better headroom.

There are seven midi functions that can be recalled and stored: Ch1 (or bypass), Ch2, Ch3, Solo for every channels and Mute. The functions are storable to infinite presets. The midi RX is “omimode” modality in order to simplify interfacing with other external control devices. If requested by the external device, the RX channel can be assigned the Ch1 or Ch16.

The selection and storage procedure is really easy: select the preset from the midi pedalboard (external device) example “Preset1” > select the Channel, Channel+Boost or mute from TRIPLE DECKER > Press Store. You can repeat the memorization on your desired presets. Any preset already stored can be re-stored simply by repeating the same procedure.

The button logic was designed for demanding guitarists and follows this mode: Press the foot switch once to select the desired channel; pressing it again for activate and turn off the “Solo”. This is possible on all three channels. For the Mute, in order not to activate it accidentally, a time of two seconds has been necessary (continuously pushed) and it can be activated with all three foot switch.

" I really love the Triple Decker; it's a versatile pedal with great features. I can go from slightly overdriven sound to Rock Metal saturation with an incredible sound quality and warmth. The boost available on each channel is a very useful feature. "
