B-Eight Cross-Drive "Blues Variant" | Digital Captures (Inspired by Brush eight Drive X2)
- Studio-Grade Precision
The Warm, Responsive Soul of a Bluesbreaker.
Developed over three years by Japanese boutique pedal artisans, this capture pack archives a highly sought-after low-gain overdrive. While maintaining the extreme touch-sensitivity of its predecessor, this variant shifts its focus toward a warmer, more bluesy "Bluesbreaker" character. By dialing back the overall gain and softening the peak, it delivers an incredibly sweet, thick clean-to-crunch tone that reacts instantaneously to your guitar's volume and tone controls.

The foundation of this digital capture is the Drive X2, a meticulous creation by the Osaka-based pedal shop and brand Brush eight.
Development and Engineering:
Conceived from a simple yet demanding desireā"to change the sound color instantly and in real-time through picking dynamics and the guitar's volume/tone controls"āthe Drive X2 took over three years to perfect. Compared to the original Drive X, the X2 intentionally lowers the overall gain and softens the peak frequencies. This architectural shift transforms it from an edgy, modern drive into a warmer, more vintage-voiced "Bluesbreaker" style pedal.
The Essence of the Archive:
What makes the Drive X2 truly special is its duality. Roll back the tone, and it produces a thick, sweet clean; push the tone and max out the gain, and it delivers an aggressive, biting overdrive. XTONES has carefully archived these distinct behavioral extremes, ensuring that the pedal's highly acclaimed, musical compression and dynamic flexibility are flawlessly translated into your digital environment.

āModel A: "Thick & Sweet Clean" (Low Gain)
Taking advantage of the lowered tone control, this setting provides a profoundly thick and sweet clean tone. It perfectly captures the subtle, musical compression that makes single notes feel alive.
