The Electronic Audio Experiments Halberd V2 is a fresh take on a fan favorite overdrive. Those familiar to the original circuit will appreciate new features like silicon transistors with specialized filter stages to preserve the character of the original germanium circuit, a smaller enclosure with voltage protection, and a lowered noise floor. Aside from the housekeeping, the V2 sports a three way Voice toggle, which can go between "Standard", "Clang", and "Deep". Standard is true to the V1, Clang offers a gain boost in the upper midrange, and Deep adds low end and more gain to drive the pedal even harder.
