Hey there, I'm sorta new, I've lurked for a few months here and finally decided to post something.
I was checking out pedal demos and noticed that, dear lord, there are TONS of gain pedals. It seems they're the favorite pedal of pedal makers or something, because they're all over the place! But I don't know, a lot of them sound too similar to me.
Is there some sort of a list or a diagram of the different types of gain pedals (based on the kind of circuit or how they process the signal input) out there? I'm looking pretty hard but I haven't found any links that don't end in dead pages or just not the information I'm looking for (I bet the distinction doesn't end on "overdrive, distortion, fuzz, and bitcrushing"!).
If there's nothing out there, I guess I'm gonna have to delve a bit deeper. Also, if I'm getting the terminology mixed up here, I'm sorry.
