DRIVESTAGER – Dynamic Overdrive Pedal Plugin

Shape your tone with DRIVESTAGER, a versatile overdrive pedal plugin designed to run in front of any amp sim. From subtle grit to crushing saturation, DRIVESTAGER delivers raw, dynamic drive that adapts to any style—whether you’re chasing classic warmth or modern aggression.

With 20 unique voicings modeled from iconic overdrives and distortion pedals, plus the ability to stack two stages in series, you’ll unlock endless tonal combinations. Dial in smooth overdrive, gritty breakup, or all-out distortion, and refine your sound with precision controls that put gain staging completely in your hands.

The built-in gate keeps noise under control, while the tightness knob sharpens the low end for punchy chugs, precise riffs, and articulate palm mutes. Perfect for players who want full control of their tone—from vintage-style breakup to massive, modern saturation.
