## Overview

Featuring a powerful volume control, a chimey treble EQ, and a unique gain blend that lets you find the perfect mix between clean and driven sounds, it’s designed to help guitarists cut through any mix. Powered by a 9V battery or standard adapter, the Archer recreates a classic circuit revered for its natural, dynamic response and tonal clarity.

## Description

The Archer is a versatile overdrive/boost with amazing headroom that is designed to help you cut through the mix. The Archer is sort of a two-in-one pedal. It can be used as just a clean boost by turning the gain all the way down. As you introduce gain it will attenuate the clean signal but there is a magical blend in between that you will find. Experiment with the settings and be careful with the output.this dude is loud!Output: The volume control is very powerful and drives fairly hard relatively early. This allows you to hit the front end of an amp or pedal to get very aggressive or crystal clear.Treble: The Treble control is a very effective EQ that goes from dark to a very "chimey", bright tone. It's great to create that midrange clarity.Gain: The gain also acts as a mixer control between the clean boost and the gain. Turn the gain all the way down and your output becomes the volume for all clean boost.Start blending in the gain control and it will simultaneously reduce clean volume and introduce gain...somewhere in the middle is the sweet spot or mix of the two.Power SupplyAll J. Rockett Audio Designs pedals operate off of the standard BOSS type 9 volt adapter or a single 9-volt battery. The power input is a 5.5 mm x 2.1 mm jack with the positive voltage on the outer sleeve. Using an external power supply will automatically disconnect the battery. Disconnect the input jack to preserve battery life when not in use or when not used with an appropriate, external power supply.

Review: Solid Pedal & Solid Sound, Quite Literally - This is a really versatile pedal, it actually can do more than I had originally thought, after some experimentation I found this pedal can do a few things. It can do overdrive, like I'd say getting into the zone of crunch territory is about where it taps out before getting way to much output going on. It has a unique voice, I'd say it's kind of "hard", not harsh, but just a very strong and blunt kind of overdrive. I don't know how else to describe it, to me, this is probably the weakest link in the pedal as it has a tendency to get kind of dark and harder to distinguish the notes the more the overdrive is turned up, but still 100% usable. The highlight I think this pedal serves is as a "clean boost", it has a very slight mid-hump, and gives some "girth" to clean notes, it sounds excellent doing this, my favorite setting. It can also be used to push another pedal into some "output" driven overdrive, which is a very clean sounding tone, I like that as-well. That about sums up what the uses are of the pedal, I think it serves really well as an "enhanced" clean tone, and even getting into some unique overdrive territories, but I remain that it serves best as a clean boost. For the price though, I'm a happy camper and I think this is a keeper. Final Notes: This buffer will thin out your tone and add presence when it's off, I ended up returning it because my amp already is a bright amp and it just didn't sit well with my setup. The sound was fantastic, but it made my clean signal to harsh when off.
Review: An excellent and polyvalent OD pedal - I never owned or played a Klon Centaur, but was intrigued by this pedal after viewing a Tone for Tache Guitarist video. I decided to order one after receiving a EHX SoulFood. The Archer has a wide array of tones and its controls have very subtle adjustments. It plays from a totally clear boost, to a bit of edge to a lovely OD'ed sound; and the tone control is very effective at dialling in the exact amount of treble/bass you need. The Archer also works great in combination with a stacked OD/distortion/fuzz pedal (I use an FullTone OCD and/or a MXR Mini-Fuzz Face). With gain turned down, The Archer will definitely emphasise the sound of the said dirt pedals w/o the mushiness you sometimes experience. Compared to the SoulFood, it has less overall gain when turned to the max, BUT definitely has a better sounding, more organic and more natural sound. That justifies the price difference IMHO. Well done, J Rockett!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome
*by T***Y on February 7, 2025*

Indispensable on my pedal board. I use it in one of two ways: always on with almost no gain, or for a gentle gain with a bit of grit. Either way, it sounds great and cuts through the mix. Put it before The Dude, and the combination sounds great. If I could only have one pedal, this would be the one.
