You'll feel a fuzzy drive with a vintage feel is added when the gain is turned up. It's volume control has great precision has a wide-range of sounds.

Hydra Version
Wide range and natural equalization with a clear, three-dimensional sound image.
A fuzzy, woody personality familiar to Organic Sounds products.

Ares Version
It has more gain than the Hydra version and also has a more shimmering sonic image.
This Drive pedal has natural sustain and fuzzy overtones when the gain is turned up.

The Ares has  clipping diodes in the circuit that creates the distortion, and has a higher gain than the Hydra version. The sound is grainy, yet tightly packed, and supports from comfortable crunch to hard clipping distortion. The sound is three-dimensional regardless of the gain setting, and it also has a vintage pedal-specific taste that builder Watanabe likes, "It's crispy and light, but the sound is loud." For example, if you like the combination of humbucker pickups and Marshall amps / easy to play, you'll love the sound of this pedal. In addition, even with a sound with reduced gain, it has a pleasant push feeling and the same impression as the Hydra version, which adds firmness and luster to the tone and adds a glossy atmosphere.
