## What is Clon Minotaur Overdrive?

Clon Minotaur Transparent Overdrive is modeled on The Klon Centaur* a guitar overdrive pedal developed between 1990 and 1994. The Clon Minotaur is characterized as a "transparent" overdrive, meaning it adds gain to the signal without significantly altering the tone of the guitar.

Depending on the settings of the control knobs, the Clon Minotaur Transparent Overdrive can act mostly as a clean boost, adding mostly volume and minimal coloring to the sound. This can be used to drive the input valve stage of the virtual amplifier to use the characteristic distortion sound of an overdriven guitar amp.

Clon Minotaur Transparent Overdrive controls can be set to distort the sound signal in the plugin, where two modeled germanium diodes can perform waveform clipping.

The gain parameter controls the balance between the modeled diode clipping stage and the clean stage. The two signals are summed together before they interact with the other two controls, treble and volume.

Works as a standalone app, AudioUnit v3 effect, or Inter-App Audio effect

### 5/5 — Really quite good!

*2023-09-21*

There are many overdrive effects out there but I keep coming back to this one for a few reasons. One being that it’s versatile yet in a simple 3-knob layout. I particularly like how the “drive” knob level mixes in with the clean signal. It is like transparent overdrives but the summing just has good tonal quality and as increased, pulls back the harsher high-mid frequencies and pushes the diode clipping into the mix non-linearly, which I like in this case. 

The tone knob mix-summing seems very similar to the drive effect, only with tone. (obviously) 

I use it a lot so I figured I’d write a review. Thanks for the awesome free plugins!

### 5/5 — Sounds Amazing

*2023-04-25*

I use this distortion in a lot of my songs.

### 5/5 — ヤバい魔法の粉？

*2022-07-09*

僕は実機はもちろんインスパイア製品さえ所有したことがないので、ケンタウロスの音に関しては最も良い面の特徴を捉えていると思うYouTubeのDeeper’s viewを基準にしたい。このペダルの難しいところは全部のツマミを12時にしてもさして良い音にならないところだが、このシミュには使えるファクトリープリセット(Jeff BとかJohn Mとか)が用意されており、それを選べばおお！と言う音が出来てしまうのが嬉しい。

さて、普段使っているアンシミュのデラリバ’65クリーンはちょっと理想よりペラく、ストラトのフロントだと6弦の低音が邪魔というありがちを複数のペダルで抑え込むのだが、このペダルのクリーンブーストを前に入れるとあら不思議。アンプとこれだけであっという間に音が決まる。ボリュームでクリーンからクランチまで自由自在。

まぁ凄いがいわゆる定番の組み合わせ。1週間くらい堪能した後、試しにplexiシミュにオーバードライブとして突っ込んでみたら、おい。ザ・ブラウンサウンド。リアのシングルでも十分に、各弦がそれぞれ丁度良く歪んでくれる。でdeeperのと比べても、こっちの方がジューシーさが体感2割増しだ。試しにアンシミュの中のケンタをいじってみると似た音は出ても、このミノタウロスには何か及ばない。むしろそっちの方が実機に近い。なんなんだ、この無料ペダルは。

### 1/5 — Ok

*2022-01-26*

Bought the app however it seems that It will work if I buy another surprise app?

### 5/5 — Nembrini the greats.

*2021-08-17, version 1.0*

Just amazing!

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2021-05-20*

Does what they say.  How much longer till the live rig stand-alone comes our for iOS? I can run all the current apps I got now in AUM. But it takes awhile & have to go back to each plugin to tweak.

### 5/5 — Super

*2021-05-03, version 1.0*
