Blackstar - Dept 10 Boost

Dept. 10 – the world’s most advanced valve pedalsIntroducing Dept 10, Blackstar’s expert R&D team behind the company’s innovative design and game changing range of amplification and pedals. This team of engineers are all musicians themselves and are forever researching new and exciting ideas to help create the perfect tone.
Dept 10 have recently developed the worlds most advanced valve pedals. Each of the Dept 10 pedals all use an ECC83 triode valve at the heart, running at over 200V internally which enables these pedals to deliver organic tone, dynamics and authentic breakup.
Innovative design, premium components and Blackstar’s advanced Cab Rig D.I. technology, create the ultimate valve pedals.
DEPT 10 - BoostDept 10’s Boost pedal is fully valve-powered pedal, painstakingly designed Blackstar’s experts over at their R&D division.
The Dept 10 Boost brings together a Class A gain stage with high voltage valve circuitry and a passive James Baxandall EQ – it’s just like adding 2 red hot valve stages to your amp, with authentic organic tone, dynamics and break up.

The Perfect Tone - In No Time At All!

ECC83 triode valve
Featuring a simple 3 control setup – one for Boost, Low and High, it couldn’t be easier to dial in the perfect tone.
Similar to the rest of the Dept 10 range, the Boost runs at over 200V inside – just like a real valve amp. Although thanks to innovative design, the Boost can be powered with your usual standard 9V adaptor. This enables the ECC83 to pack true valve tone and response, all whilst still managing to fit on your board.
The Dept. 10 Boost also features a integrated buffer / line driver. Perfect for preserving your tone when using long cables, or large pedalboards, even driving low impedance pedals.
