The pedal’s overdrive circuit is analog.

Independent shopping perspective
The XTC Overdrive brings the red-channel voice of a boutique amplifier into a compact analog pedal. Its distortion is described as smooth and dynamic, with rich harmonics and a fast response, making it a focused option for blues and classic-rock guitar parts. Hardware true-bypass switching lets the pedal come out of the signal path when switched off. Power it from a 9V battery or a regulated external 9V DC supply.
