Browne Amplification Unit 13 Dual Distortion
Description
The Browne Amplification Unit 13 is a dual overdrive and distortion built on classic American distortion circuits. Both sides share the same core circuit, but each one is voiced for its own job: the left side for low gain, the right side for high gain. Together they cover everything from a light, gritty edge to a full-on wall of distortion.
The low-gain side tames the drive range so the whole sweep of the Drive knob stays useful at lower settings, and a 3-way Low End switch puts back the bottom end that classic distortion circuits tend to lose when the gain is turned down. The high-gain side pushes the same circuit harder for a more aggressive response, with a 2-way switch that chooses between two hard-clipping diode flavours.
An internal DIP switch sets the footswitching. Use it like Browne's other dual pedals, with a switch for each side, or choose the new A/B mode: the left switch turns the whole pedal on and off, and the right switch flips between the two sides. In A/B mode you can pick a side while the pedal is bypassed, and the LED for that side glows at half brightness so you always know which sound is waiting.
