In the 70s, Maxon used the JRC4558 chipset and successfully created a much sought after overdrive pedal. Soon later, Ibanez, Boss and other pedal makers started to utilize this chipset and made JRC4558 so famous. With the development of technology, we can use chipsets with better quality than JRC4558 to get a better sound! And the biggest breakthrough of OD-8 in technology is to allow users to change the chipset to create better tone without soldering or professional skills, just like changing a processor of a computer.
