Damnation Audio MBD MOSFET Bass Distortion

$249.00

The Damnation Audio MBD (MOSFET Bass Distortion) is a high-headroom bass overdrive and distortion pedal designed to deliver powerful saturation without sacrificing low-end clarity. Utilizing MOSFET clipping for a warm, amp-like response, the MBD produces harmonically rich drive that feels dynamic and responsive under your fingers.

From light grind and punchy edge-of-breakup tones to thick, aggressive distortion, the MBD keeps your fundamental intact and your articulation sharp. Its flexible EQ shaping allows you to dial in tight modern punch, mid-forward grind, or darker, weighty textures that sit perfectly in rock, metal, punk, and hardcore mixes.

Built for serious bass players, the MBD integrates seamlessly into clean amps, driven rigs, or DI setups. If you need distortion that cuts through the mix while staying tight and controlled, the Damnation Audio MBD delivers authority, clarity, and unmistakable impact.

CONTROLS

Gain (Drive): Controls the amount of gain in the distortion channel. This control goes from a smooth and transparent low gain overdrive to a screaming bass distortion.

Volume: Controls the output level of the distortion channel.

Tone: Tilt-style tone control for the distortion channel centered around 600Hz.

Boost: Adds additional boosted signal into gain stages. Does not affect the clean blend circuitry. Takes the MBD from distortion to close to fuzz territory (with the help of the depth control).

Clean (Blend): Controls output level of parallel contoured clean channel. This is your clean tone but with an emphasis on low end and de-emphasis on disruptive mids and highs.

Depth: Controls the amount of low end injected into the distortion channel. Depth settings below 12:00 will tighten up the distortion to retain clarity with drop-tuned basses without sacrificing low end. Higher depth settings will thicken up bright basses and add mass to standard-tuned instruments.

Power

Use only 9VDC 2.1mm center negative (boss-style) power adapters. Isolated pedal specific power supplies are highly recommended. Damnation Audio pedals are designed for maximum headroom and ideal performance with a 9V supply. Going above 9VDC may damage your pedal and void any warranties. Damnation Audio pedals do not accept 9V batteries.
