Blended from circuit-archetype lineage, dynamic feel, tone-signal overlap and tone-vector distance — the tone vector itself is derived from editorial description text, not a measured acoustic signal, so this reflects how similarly the catalog copy describes the two, not a lab measurement.

The Browne Amps Protein is the Montreal boutique builder's dual-channel overdrive pedal combining the Carbon channel, a transparent Bluesbreaker-style low-gain overdrive, with the Gritador channel, a mid-forward Tube Screamer-influenced drive. Each channel has independent gain, volume, and tone controls alongside a three-way mid-shift toggle, and both channels can be used independently or stacked together. The circuit is designed to respond like a tube amp front end, preserving dynamic pick attack and cleaning up naturally with guitar volume. Popular across blues, indie rock, and country applications.
The Mad Professor Supreme Overdrive is a premium boutique overdrive from Mad Professor's dual overdrive platform, delivering natural, musical overdrive with the touch-sensitive, amp-like response that defines Mad Professor's design philosophy. The Supreme Overdrive combines multiple overdrive circuit characteristics for a comprehensive, musical gain tool suited to blues, rock, and expressive playing.
