Jive

**The Jptr Fx Jive - Reel Saturator is an analog saturation effects pedal designed to emulate the distinct warmth and saturation characteristics of vintage reel-to-reel tape machines.** Inspired by the Akai GX 210D from the 1970s, this pedal offers a range of harmonic textures, from subtle tape-style warmth to high-gain distortion. Users can fine-tune their sound using dedicated Volume and Gain controls, while three clipping diode toggles offer options for asymmetric and symmetric clipping stages, allowing for a variety of distortion profiles. The pedal supports operation with 9v to 18v power, providing increased headroom and tonal flexibility. **Features:** - Analog reel-to-reel style saturation pedal - Volume and Gain controls for precise gain staging - Three diode toggles for selectable clipping types (asymmetric/symmetric) - Supports 9v to 18v operation for adjustable headroom - True bypass switching for clean signal integrity - Compact enclosure for modern pedalboards **Category search terms:** analog saturation pedal, Jptr Fx effects pedal, distortion pedal, true bypass, vintage tape saturation stompbox.
