Walrus Audio Warhorn/Ages

Overdrive

The Walrus Audio Warhorn/Ages is an overdrive pedal that combines two of Walrus Audio's overdrive circuits, the Warhorn and the Ages, into a single stompbox. Announced in February 2021, it was described by gearnews.com as "this beast of an overdrive" that "offers two circuits for you to play with," putting a wide span of drive tones in one enclosure.1

It was part of a second wave of pedals released on February 23, 2021.1

What it does

The pedal gives a player two distinct overdrive voices in one box:

  • Warhorn circuit: transparent drives, with the option of symmetrical or asymmetrical clipping, the two diode arrangements that shape how the signal is clipped and how hard the drive compresses.1
  • Ages circuit: a five-mode circuit giving access to a wide range of low- and high-gain tones.1

For a player, that means one pedal can cover everything from a light, open low-gain boost up to fuller high-gain drive, without taking two separate overdrive pedals onto the board. The two circuits are also available as standalone pedals, the Warhorn Mid-Range Overdrive and the Ages Five-State Overdrive, if a player prefers either voice on its own.1
