Details:

Proxy is an incredibly authentic rendition of a classic British transistor amplifier from the '60s, often used by bands such as The Beatles and Led Zeppelin. Imagine a characterful, amp-like, and versatile cousin of a Tone Bender and you have the sound of Proxy. The internal 9V to 18V conversion gives the pedal exceptional dynamics; play gently for a detailed and responsive clean tone, dig in and get some wonderfully rude break-up.

The Presence control can be used to lower the brightness of the pedal to suit your set-up. The Mid Boost feature allows you to recreate some classic Beatles tones, think 'Fixing a Hole'.

An internal DIP switch, that modifies the Presence control, allows you to use Proxy with a Marshall JTM45/Plexi, or with a Fender BF/SF and all other amps. Proxy can also be used DI, just set the Presence control fully clockwise for a neutral frequency response.

The white dots (position markers) on the enclosure indicate the correct setting to achieve a neutral or flat EQ.
