The Tubedrve is a high end tube saturation device disguised as a pedal.


Building on the architecture used in the Tubedrve modules, this pedal uses a 6AS6 tube at high voltage (230VDC) to provide vacuum tube distortion. This high voltage is normally only found in guitar amps and rack gear, but is needed to provide the best possible distortion characteristic.

The pedal itself operates on a standard 9VDC pedal power supply.

Both line and guitar level inputs are accepted and able to be used: this pedal can be used as a guitar pedal but also for synths, keys or with mixing.

The distortion amount can be set from subtle saturation to full blown distortion.

triode or pentode

A switch allows for the tube to be set up as a triode or pentode. A led lights up the tube when it’s being overdriven.

Biasing control of the tube allows for either symmetrical or asymmetrical clipping.

The 6AS6 tube is socketed which allows for easy replacement. The footswitch is on a standard connector, allowing replacement without soldering if ever needed.

    Love this pedal, might purchase another one to travel, with one at home.

    Such a cool tool, inspiring and musical no matter what you do with it. Thank you Berend!

    Very very happy. For me it’s an always on pedal. It adds a little overdrive and a big warmer to my sound.

    Geat device, superb sounding. I need to order the mastering version in stereo!

    Finally a tube distortion that keeps my bass sound alive! Other units destroy so much of the original sound, but the Singular Audio pedal warms it up and makes everything sound richer and smoother. My new „always on“ pedal!

    I use the tubedrve pedal for Bass with a Glockenklang Blue Bird and I love it for saturation and low gain distortion. Best tube pedal I ever owned!

  7. James (verified owner) –

    I’ve used a number of tube drive pedals and this may well be my favorite. In fact, i think it is the best effects pedal to come out this year.

    An immediate “yes!” … I’ve only messed around with this pedal for about an hour, but I already fell in love. I am in a band that uses drum machines and samplers live for drum tracks and I re-amped a drum track from logic’s drum machine designer through this pedal and it really pushed and elevated the entire track. I have a feeling many of our album’s tracks will get a taste of the Tubedrve

    Had my share of drive pedals for bass but this stands apart from any others I’ve owned. Incredible tone and excellent build quality. Ordered from the US and shipping was incredibly fast!

    it’s gorgeous

    thanks for this

    I became a fan of the Tubedrve 500-S one and a half years ago while I was looking for an external saturation unit. The sound of this unit was simply pleasant! But what kept me from buying one was the expense of this formate in general.

    Now the Tubedrve pedal is one of my favourite pieces of gear and one of the best purchases I made since I started to set up my home studio. This pedal unit is an allrounder, it’s made to be used with guitar, synths, base, DAW, before, after, in the middle, to boost or sizzle, to be extreme or where ever your creativity flows! I do not keep a lot of gear since it blocks my creativity and overwhelms me, that’s why I love equipment that do a specific thing and are usable in different situations. This is a personal preference of mine but this pedal generally does so well any way! About the build quality: it leaves nothing to be desired! And the look… amazing, elegant and inspiring! The pricing is also fair for a boutique product! The fact that you can have a high quality saturation unit in a pedal format and not in a rack unit or 500-S is amazing.
    I am for sure biased but I love Singular Audio for a reason!

    P.S.: And that tube-saturation-sound-thing…this pedal delivers!
