Dophix announced an exclusive preview of the VENERE overdrive at NAMM Show 2026 in Los Angeles, with pre-orders open and shipping stated as one month away¹.

The overdrive pedal has three controls: volume, tone and gain. Dophix describes the effect as allowing "a complete sound selection: from clean to crunch up to a soft distortion," and calls it suitable for blues and rock sounds¹. The maker also lists a TRUE BYPASS switch, carbon resistors and what it calls high quality components, and says the components belong to a vintage series chosen for "a warm and defined sound"¹.

The input and output jacks are 6.3 mm (1/4 inch) and placed sideways to the pedal. Power is 9 volts DC through an internal battery or an external stabilized supply, and the battery is replaced by removing four screws on the bottom cover. Dophix lists input impedance at 1 Mohm and output at 300 ohm, with current draw of 19 mA with the LED on and 500 uA in standby¹.

The page lists the VENERE at 250.00 euros and gives shipping costs to Italy and the EU; it directs buyers outside the EU to Dophix dealers¹. The same page also names the pedal "VENERE alias Lussuria" and shows video titles referring to a "Dophix Lussuria Overdrive"¹.
