Heaven & Hell - Laney Supergroup preamp
Heaven & Hell - Laney Supergroup preamp
Heaven & Hell is an emulation of the legendary Laney Supergroup Amps famously used by Tony Iommi of Black Sabbath in the early years of the band.
Heaven & Hell is designed using JFET's which are excellent at emulating tube triode response and behaviour. Similar to old Laney Supergroup amps, the pedal features 2 Channels, 3 band EQ, and Presence Control.
The 2 Channels are internally jumpered and the Gain for each Channel is controlled via separate knobs. Use the Normal channel for heavy ground shaking riffs, while the Birght channel adds brightness, a bit more saturation and gain. Overall volume is controlled via the Master.
In addition to the stock Laney Supergroup preamp emulation, Heaven & Hell also features an additional treble booster that can take it into that classic biting distortion territory Iommi was famous for.

Heaven & Hell can either be used as a drive in front of an amp, or you can run it directly into the effects loop of your favourite amp as well and use as a standalone preamp. Another way to use it is to run it directly into your DAW followed by speaker IR's. This pedal runs on standard pedal power center negative DC supplies. It can be run from 9-18V for more headroom.
