VANILLA SKY
THIS IS OUR FLAGSHIP PEDAL !!!
MLC Vanilla Sky Overdrive – this effect has low gain, therefore it is ideal for all amplifiers and it works with all channels. CLEAN channels – we can get a beautiful creamy and juicy crunch, DRIVE channels – it’s great for boosting, when we get a wide and juicy drive with a lot of midrange tones, without cutting the low tone.
FEATURES
QUALITY COMPONENTS
Include highest-quality hi-fi audio components.
ALUMINUM CHASSIS
Everything is built inside a sturdy powder coated lightw aluminum chassis with practical assembly holes .
ANALOG SIGNAL
100% analog signal line, creating a warm and rich tone.
input buffer
The problems with the mismatch of the impedance in the electrical circuit between the pickup and the subsequent equipment in our effects have been completely eliminated, thanks to the use of our Class A Pre-amplifier. Even if the effect is in the OFF position, the input impedance is identical to a high quality tube amplifier.

SPECS
MLC Vanilla Sky Overdrive – this effect has low gain, therefore it is ideal for all amplifiers and it works with all channels. CLEAN channels – we can get a beautiful creamy and juicy crunch, DRIVE channels – it’s great for boosting, when we get a wide and juicy drive with a lot of midrange tones, without cutting the low tone.
The idea behind this pedal, was to create an effect which would retain its dynamics and allow the guitar’s individual tone to shine through even at the highest GAIN settings. A completely analog signal line helps achieve a rich and organic sound. The circuit is based on Class A preamplifier BURR BROWN which allows serious amounts of sustain and at the same time ensures a high level of dynamics and a low amount of hum.

Battery operation:
MLC Vanilla Sky operates on a 9V battery, to replace the battery 8 screws must be
removed from the underside of the device to completely remove the plate.
External Power supply:
MLC effects are also fed externally, through a stabilized direct current 9VDC, thanks to which no battery supply may be needed and equipped with an industry standard 2,1x 5,5mm power supply input. To ensure the best, most stable and deprived of any background hum power supply, we suggest using MLC FX POWER BOX.
