Creamy tones, detailed response and gain-wide articulation, times two: The Double Dreamer!

Housing two single overdrive units -- the Tubedreamer and Lucydreamer -- under one roof, the Double Dreamer hosts 3 unique key features that offer maximum tone variety, practicality and functionality in the smallest footprint possible while remaining 100% handmade just like all JAM Pedals designs!

A 3-way-toggle switch routes the high-gain-stage footswitch to work with either the Tubedreamer, the Lucydreamer or both. Internal dip switches reroute the IN and OUT jacks to work as Send-Returns for each Overdrive side, allowing you to individually engage each side with your switcher, or place them in different points in your signal chain. If you are using a stereo setup you can pair the TD side with one amp and the LD side with another for lush parallel overdrive sounds!

The Tubedreamer (Left Side) is a take on the legendary 808 Tubescreamer with a carefully tuned midrange frequency register delivering a warm and rich overdriven sound through any amp! A pivotal difference between the TD and other Tubescreamers, is that JAM chose to go with 3 diodes for asymmetrical clipping instead of symmetrical, enhancing the responsiveness of the pedal to fretting and picking nuances. Made with carbon comp resistors, the TD employs the JRC4558D chip to deliver its classic sound, just like in the original, sought-after 808s.

The Lucydreamer (Right Side) is a Dry / Wet overdrive which has less of a mid… read more hump than the Tubedreamer, and allows for more low end to come through. It can track every little nuance of your playing with a wide gain-stage spectrum, ranging from highly dynamic tube- amp-like break-up, all the way to full-bodied high-gain saturation with the assistance of the high-gain-stage footswitch, while effortlessly maintaining chord-voicing clarity! The secret chip it bases its sound on, along with its different clipping implementation compared to the TD, allow the Lucydreamer to pair perfectly with the TD adding layers of harmonic content on tap!

Combine the two for new and exciting gain structures and assign the high-gain-stage footswitch to taste, making for up to six different gain-stages accessible in real time!

Features:

- CONTROLS:
*The Double Dreamer features soft-click (relay) switching.
1. Right footswitch engages the Lucydreamer
2. Left footswitch engages the Tubedreamer
3. Middle footswitch engages the high-gain function
4. LEVEL (left) controls the Tubedreamers output level
5. TONE (left) adjusts the Tubedreamers tone
6. GAIN (left) sets the Tubedreamers gain level
7. 3-way toggle-switch assigns the high-gain function as follows Left assigns it to the Tubedreamer Right assigns it to the Lucydreamer Middle assigns it to both
8. MIX sets the blend ratio between the clean and overdriven signal for the Lucydreamer
9. LEVEL (right) controls the Lucydreamers output level
10. TONE (right) adjusts the Lucydreamers tone
11. GAIN (right) sets the Lucydreamers gain level
12. Left internal trimmer sets the high-gain stage output level for the Lucydreamer in relation to the low-gain-stage
13. Right internal trimmer sets the high-gain stage output level for the TubeDreamer in relation to the low-gain-stage

ROUTING CONTROLS
Internal dip-switches determine the Doubledreamers signal routing

Default routing
(Series: input, Lucydreamer, Tubedreamer, output)
2 left dip-switches UP & 2 right dip-switches DOWN

Independent routing (Y mode: input signal splits to both overdrive circuits) 2 left dip switches DOWN & 2 right dip-switches UP. In order for this mode to work properly you will need two Y insert cables (stereo jack to two mono jacks)

The IN jack becomes the Lucydreamer sides breakout point (tip is input, ring is output)

The OUT jack becomes the Tubedreamer breakout point (tip is output, ring is input)
