TODP Pro-Modular in standard “Toxic” print

This is the latest Pro-Modular version of the TODP, which is an updated “veritable toolkit of overdrive and distortion”. It can give you a huge range of breakup from hardly noticeable, at the edge of break-up (transparent) to full-on metal or punk distortion, with all kinds or blues and rock options in the middle. You can now also swap the distortion and overdrive boards!

The original version of this pedal was the Tube Overdrive Distortion plus, with the drive circuit owing a lot to the superbly simple and robust “Distortion +”. Though the artwork and layout has remained the same, you can now change the characteristics of the overdrive or distortion by swapping the boards for one of our own, or even a 3rd party board (when available).

As before, there are pre-cut and post-boost options for the low end, which can be used together to give a more mid oriented break up in the tube. The high end can be tamed with passive Filter control pot.

All 6 settings utilise the overdrive device, with increasingly more noticeable tube effect, as you go from germanium to ABN:

  • 3x “hard clipping” diode distortion settings: 80s / Schottky (labelled Ge), 80s / silicon and 90s / LED
  • 3x tube (valve) overdrive settings: AB2 – where you can hear the 2x silicon diodes affect the break up, AB4 – where the 4x silicon diodes are largely inaudible, or ABN – where the compression is controlled in a classic 50s / 60s way

The new standard J201 Fetzer overdrive device is mounted on a daughter board, and has been carefully crafted to give a rich and distinctly tube-like sound.

This is the Buffered version, and allows you to switch the MOSFET buffer in or out.

If  only a “real tube” will do, you can also purchase a Real Tube Experiment Board, which are for the Real Tube Experiment Kit, and share the same pin configuration. We currently have two (2x) different versions of these available, both loaded with Soviet era sub-miniature “pencil” Rod Pentode tubes (valves) :

  • The “tube” board, loaded with a 1J37B 
  • The  “TUBE-V board”, loaded with a military spec 1J29B-V

There are also various Experiments in Distortion boards, including some which are populated with germanium diodes. These daughter boards are available to buy in our web shop. We will not fit the boards to the TODP, and it is a simple process to replace the stock boards, should you be so inclined.

Note: This pedal must not be sold with anything other than dedicated TODP boards fitted. If you sell the pedal on, all Real Tube Experiment Boards and Experiments in Distortion boards must be removed before sale, and the standard boards re-fitted.

This particular pedal features the standard “Toxic” graphic, co-designed, painted, and printed by the Somerset based artist Mutartis.

Safety Information

When using the Brelliott TODP follow these safety guidelines to prevent electric shock, fire hazards, and damage:

  • Power Supply – only use the manufacturer-recommended power adapter with the correct voltage and polarity.
  • Avoid Water & Moisture – keep the pedal dry and away from liquids to prevent electrical hazards.
  • Proper Ventilation – ensure adequate airflow to prevent overheating. Avoid covering the pedal while in use.
  • Check Cables & Plugs – regularly inspect power cables for damage. Do not use frayed or exposed wires.
  • Safe Plugging & Unplugging – always switch off mains power before unplugging the power supply to the pedal.
  • Earthing & Shock Prevention – use a properly Earthed power outlet to avoid electrical shocks.
  • Do not modify plugs or remove Earth connection – even though most power supplies are double insulated, and do not require an Earth, some do.
  • Indoor Use Only – externally-powered pedals should only be used in dry, indoor environments.
  • Keep Away from Children – prevent accidental operation or damage by keeping pedals out of reach of children.

Additional information

Weight0.536 kg
Dimensions20.8 × 15.7 × 11.0 cm
Artwork

Fluoro yellow / green "Toxic", Purple "Toxic", Orange "Toxic"

Input pre EQ

Bypass or First order bass cut (220Hz default)

Clipping options

Schottky (Ge), silicon (Si) and LED clipping diodes to 2, 4 or no anti-blocking diodes on the tube. Replacing the modules may change the function of these.

Pentode load

47K – hi clip, 220K – low clip, or 100K – middle. These are analogous to loading of an ECC83 / 12AX7, and may not be the actual load resistors in the module.

Recovery boost EQ

First order bass boost – bypass, 220Hz and 80Hz

Recovery boost

6db / 0dB / 12dB – used to recover volume after, especially Schottky, germanium and silicon clipping has crushed the signal. Can be used to slam the overdrive signal, to add op amp clipping to the mix.

Board colour / series

Purple / 11

Tone profile

Fitted with wide-range (1M) gain pots (Transparent Overdrive) , broad LPF sweep, with bright cap, Red LEDs.

Buffer

BS170N MOSFET buffer, no buffer

Power

9V DC centre-negative 2.1mm barrel jack, on Right Hand Side, above input jack. Less than 15mA current draw (external only, no internal battery option)
