Besides the obvious top mounted jacks vs side mounted jacks, the V3 utilizes soft switching instead of mechanical switching, and there is a single internal switch for split mode. What is the difference between the V2 and the V3?Ī. 9VDC only please! We built it to have tons of headroom at 9V so 18V is not better. What is the power draw of the Protein and can I use 18V?Ī. The green side is very dependent on the gain knob for its level - if I set it up 2/3rds up on the gain I have the level below half for unity gain - but if I run the gain low 1/3 or so I have to bring the level up to 2/3 or 3/4 for unity gain. It’s not really punching my amp until around 3pm on the volume dial. But I love a Tube Screamer paired with the blue side of the protein! I don’t think you’d find redundancy in having both pedals on your board. Since the green side isn’t really a Tube Screamer (it’s more like a nobles ODR-1) it’s a different flavor than your TS. Does the green side of the pedal pair well with a Tube Screamer or does it make my beloved TS kind of redundant and replaces it?Ī. I'm curious to know if this function will work with my BOSS ES-5 It's mentioned on the website that the RJM Mastermind works with the Protein like this. I have a question about the capability of the independent sides of the Protein going into separate loops. It’s a Bluesbreaker circuit with modifications and an added output section. Is the blue side of the Protein a Bluesbreaker or BD-2 circuit?Ī. You could put the protein pedal in a loop leave both sides on and then simultaneously turn both on/off that way. Is there a way to have both channels turn on simultaneously via a single switch?Ī. This is why I always recommend putting the protein last in your chain of drives. ![]() The blue side has tons of headroom and also compresses really nice so it stacks really well with other drives before it. The right side (green side) is first and cascades into the left side (blue side). Which side goes into which on the Protein?Ī. V2.2 will continue to be available in limited quantities for those that prefer the side-mounted jacks, although we have very limited stock and our priority is to build the V3 at this time. We are fully aware of the trust that is involved in that and we are grateful that you are willing to put down your hard-earned money to purchase something that you are passionate about. I know that putting down a chunk of change for a pedal is an investment. Again - we have a 2-4 week delivery timetable at this point in time although timeframes could be shorter depending on availability. ![]() I know how excited you are to get your pedal, but please know that if your order is delayed longer than expected, I will reach out to you to let you know. Please note - V3 is now $339 due to increased costs on our end. The same sound, the same reliability, the same Protein - only better. V3 updates include top-mounted jacks, soft switching and a single internal switch for split mode. Please know that due to high demand, shipping could take 2-4 weeks. We currently have some stock ready to ship immediately, with more being built each day. ![]() Orders will be processed in the order they are received. When running the green side into the blue of this pedal, you get added gain and fullness without sacrificing note clarity or getting that “mushiness” that can happen while stacking some overdrives. The secret “third” channel of this pedal might be our favorite. This allows it to add some low mid “beef” back into your tone without becoming muddy. We lowered the amount of gain (distortion) to make it usable through the entire sweep of the pedal, added some of the mids back to make it not quite so scooped, and eliminated some of the woofiness in the low end. This pedal has been used on the pedals boards of session greats from Tim Pierce to Jerry McPherson. The Green side was inspired by the classic “Nashville” overdrive. Dave addressed issues like the lack of output, tweaked the tone control, and experimented to find what we think is our favorite version of this type of circuit while still being true to its roots. The Blue Side is based on the classic OD used by the likes of John Mayer on the “Continuum” album. Dave set out to fix those issues without losing the soul of the originals. They started with two drives they loved, stacked well together, but had a few inherent issues. After years on the road and in the studio using backline amps that could be very inconsistent, Adam came to Dave wanting to create a dual overdrive that would sound great with any backline he encountered. The Protein 2 in 1 Overdrive is a collaboration between David Brown and guitarist/producer Adam Sniegowski.
