The Omni is both an active or passive pedal, switchable by the push of a button. Excellent, even tone throughout the sweep, with no loss of power and no noise. Parallel inputs and outputs are available on both sides of its aluminum diecast body. This pedal also includes a tuner out on both sides, and while in active mode, utilizes signature Goodrich impedance matching circuitry. An excellent choice for guitar, pedal steel, violin, bass, keys…anything that plugs in! In Active Mode, the input from your instrument goes first through the circuit, and then to the potentiometer, back to the circuit, and then to the output(s) and tuner. Therefore, this results in a very even feel to the sound and a clear tone through the full range of the taper. Omni Active Mode delivers excellent pedal control with no loss of highs or volume. [ 9v battery or the DC input (included) when in Active Mode. Minimum of 500 hours battery life. ] However, in Passive Mode, Goodrich decided to stay with the tried and true method of potentiometer and string actuation. Why mess with a good thing! Their Goodrich 470k potentiometer has a subtle and slight mid-range bump that is part of our classic pot sound. The Omni Passive Mode has superb feel and sound with minimal high-end loss. [ Battery is disconnected in Passive Mode. ]
