Rubber Soul

The Rubber Soul by Skreddy is a guitar preamp pedal designed to emulate the sound and feel of a small British tube combo. It offers a range of features and functionalities tailored for various use-cases. Here are the technical specifications and details:

- Design: The Rubber Soul is engineered to provide a versatile clean-to-dirty preamp with a classic British combo tube-amp-like response. It features a two- band EQ and an optical limiter that emulates the dynamic limits of a low- powered amp pushed hard.

- Controls:
- Volume: Dependent upon the drive and EQ controls, the volume needs to be set higher when other controls are low. The drive control ranges from clean to hot and jangly to smoky, slightly ragged overdrive, affecting the volume accordingly.
- Treble: Sets the high-end from dark to very bright, with a neutral setting at approximately noon.
- Bass: Sets the low-end content, ranging from thin to neutral to huge.
- Sag: Sets the threshold for the optical limiter, providing a squashy effect when settings are high and a more subtle effect when settings are low.

- Power: The Rubber Soul operates on a regular Boss-style 9V adapter or a 9V battery. It is recommended to use a quality, regulated, filtered power supply. The power consumption is 4 mA at 9V.

- Use-Cases: The pedal is capable of delivering a range of tones, from pristine clean to hot and jangly to smoky, slightly ragged overdrive. It is transparent when bass and treble are at noon and offers various flavors, including mid scoop, mid hump, bright, dark, thin, and fat.

- Compatibility: The Rubber Soul accepts the industry-standard 9V DC plug (5.5mm barrel x 2.1mm center coax), with the center being negative and the barrel being positive.

- Service: For repairs or service inquiries, users can contact Skreddy Pedals at marc@skreddypedals.com.

The Rubber Soul is designed to provide a versatile and dynamic preamp/overdrive experience, catering to the needs of guitarists seeking a classic British tube combo sound with modern functionality.
