The Midnight Drive – handmade in Australia, this bass guitar effect pedal perfectly blends full, rich bass tone with bold, expressive overdrive. Whether you're looking to add a touch of tube-like warmth and clarity to your tone or push your sound into gritty, hard-hitting overdrive, the Midnight Drive can do it. Its responsive controls allow you to seamlessly transition from a mild, vintage-style overdrive to a crushing, crunchy tone – all while maintaining the integrity of your bass’s natural sound. There’s no low-end loss here.
The Midnight Drive isn’t just about killer sound – it’s also about the visual experience. After all, why should great sounding effects look boring? With sleek, synthwave-inspired design, the Midnight Drive captures the essence of '80s nostalgia, featuring glowing accents and a futuristic aesthetic. The pedal features a dynamic VU-type meter made up of 7 vibrant LEDs that work in two distinct ways:
First, they respond to your playing, lighting up in real-time as you lay down gritty, crunchy grooves, giving you a visual indicator of your performance – the more drive you have dialled in, the more they move as you play.
With the flick of a switch they can be set to their second mode, providing a visual representation of the drive level being applied and lighting up progressively as you crank the drive knob up and dial in more grit, allowing you to see the intensity of the drive setting at a glance.
The Midnight Drive has been created for bassists who want a versatile, powerful, clean overdrive, and also think their rig should look as good as it sounds.
Please note: this pedal requires a 9v power supply, there is no battery option.
Midnight Drive
Drive – controls how much gain/overdrive. 0-50% gives warmth and boost, 50%-100% pushes into overdrive.
Blend – allows you to blend the overdrive sound with the clean sound. You can dial in the perfect amount of overdrive and layer it over clean signal to retain your low-end tone, and avoid any 'muddiness'. Maybe you want to keep most of your clean signal and add just a touch of really hard overdrive to add colour and harmonics, or maybe you want to ditch the clean signal all together and go 100% overdrive. Blending opens up infinite tonal possibilities.
Presence – adds harmonic brightness and dynamics to the higher frequency range. Good for adding crunchy grittiness.
Level – the overall signal output level.
Bass – bass boost/cut. Boost with the treble control to create a warm, scooped tone. Cut with the treble control to emphasise the midrange frequencies.
Treble – treble boost/cut.
Boost switch – doubles the gain of the drive knob for more extreme overdrive. Use this if you want more overdrive/distortion.
Display switch – switches the ‘tacho’ between drive indicator mode to dynamic playing mode.
