Question Hi. Whats the difference between distortion and overdrive?
Answer Hi Pratik,
Distortion is what it is, distortion. Distortion provides a dirty, fuzzy out of octave sound that spins the octaves of the different EQ's and puts it out as a distorted tangle of sounds. These EQ's can be adjusted by using the different settings on your operating unit ( peddle, box or distortion unit)to fit your taste.
Overdrive is created much in the same way, without distorting the EQ as much. Although you can make it that way if you choose, overdrive is not as fuzzy and dirty.
If you need more info on this contact a pro audio guy or tech.
