Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the Rocktron
Sonic Glory Overdrive Pedal.
The Sonic Glory Overdrive will add a new dimension to
your playing. This classic overdrive configuration will
add a wide range of tonal enhancements to your sound.
Need a little push over the top? The Sonic Glory will
make your amp’s built in distortion scream! Looking to
add some edge to your crunch tone ? The Sonic Glory
will provide that needed “bite” and “growl” that will
push the edge of the envelope!
The Sonic Glory is built into a super tough road worthy
extruded aluminium chassis. This pedal will stand up to
the abuses of time and road wear and tear.
The easy access battery compartment will make changing
batteries during a gig a breeze. We have also equipped it
with a super bright blue LED so you will know when the
pedal is on...it is also just plain cool!
Enjoy
Connection 1
Level Control - Adjusts the overall volume of the overdrive.
Turning the control clockwise increases the volume of the over-
drive. Turning the control counter-clockwise decreases the volume.
Tone Control - Adjusts the EQ range of the overdrive. Turning the
control clockwise increases the “high-end” or “brightness” of the
EQ. Turning the control counter-clockwise increases the “low-end”
or “warmth” of the overdrive.
Active LED - When lit the pedal is “active” or “on”
Gain Control - Adjusts the amount of distortion added to the signal .
Turning the control clockwise increases the saturation of the
distortion. Turning the control counter-clockwise decreases the
saturation of the distortion.

Hints and Tips:
An overdrive pedal is really the “secret tool” of many guitar players. Ever
wonder how a guitar player can make a guitar with 3 single coils sound
“huge” and sustain for days? Usually they have an overdrive pedal doing
the work!
The Sonic Glory’s circuitry has been engineered specifically to add
several different dimensions to your playing. Crank the gain up and select
a “lower” tone setting and you can make a guitar with single coils a
dynamic machine!
Looking for an awesome blues tone with an edge? Set the “Gain control”
slightly down with the “Level control” cranked up (set the “Tone control
to taste”) and your audience will cry tears of joy!
If you are playing with heavy distortion and you want to have a “tubey”
brown sound solo - crank the “Level” and “Gain” controls up (set the Tone
control to taste) and listen to it scream!
It is usually recommended that you place Overdrive and Distortion pedals
at the beginning of your signal chain - this will provide the most useful
range of tones.
