DCVoltage Introduces Signature David Barber +P3 Overdrive

Gaithersburg, MD - The DC Voltage Company introduces the P3 Signature

Series David Barber Overdrive Pedal.  This pedal combines the legendary

tone of the Barber Overdrive circuit with P3 Technology that's built

into a professional-grade pedal.  P3 Signature Series Pedals start with

audio circuitry licensed from known designers and combine it with

patented P3 Technology.

With softer midrange and wider frequency response than typical overdrive

pedals, David Barber's overdrive circuitry includes 4558 op-amps.  A

toggle switch on the top surface of the pedal allows easy control of the

unique Boosted Bypass feature: toggle it on and the bypassed signal is

also boosted cleanly by an amount set with the Drive knob; toggle it off

and the bypass signal passes through untouched.  This unique feature

offers a fantastic way to prevent "tone suck" when driving long cables

or low impedance pedals.  This is the world's first pedal to include

this selectable and adjustable Boosted Bypass feature, also known as

David Barber's killer “B-Buff”.

Remotely supplying abundant, regulated power via standard cables, P3

Technology completely eliminates the need for 9-volt batteries, cuts

power cabling, cumbersome wall-warts, and the need for AC mains at the

pedalboard; stabilizes tone while greatly suppressing if not entirely

eliminating ground-loop hum; stops voltage droop and resulting signal

loss or degradation; and makes the dreaded "dead on arrival" of drained

batteries a pain of the past.

The P3 Signature Series David Barber Overdrive Pedal, priced at US $149

and available directly from http://dcvoltage.net/p3/overdrive, includes

comprehensive instructions, full support ...and a 9-volt battery.  P3

Technology allows the battery to remain installed yet electrically

disconnected, ensuring it does not accidentally discharge and is

available in an emergency or when P3 Power is not available.

When set to use P3 Power, P3 Pedals actually reverse the purpose of

their DC barrel connectors, making them into 9-volt power sources,

perfect for daisy-chaining, or “Power-Chaining”, to stock pedals.  This

uncommonly useful benefit reiterates the highly-adaptable versatility of

P3 Technology.

As with all P3 Technology -- called "a pedal junky's best friend," and

"a godsend for professional musicians" -- power flows one way and signal

the other over a single cable, while power problems and concerns

essentially vanish.  Jason Robling, President of DC Voltage Company,

summarizes the P3 Signature Series David Barber Overdrive Pedal as

"legendary overdrive plus boostable bypass meets the definitive end to

pedal power problems.”
