Distortion After Overdrive. In order to get these “stacked” pedals to sound and work properly you’ll need to use them a little differently than you would if they were ran alone. In short, a distortion pedal is a lot more aggressive than an overdrive pedal in the way that it affects your tone. What distortion and overdrive pedals have in common is that they're essentially small amplifier circuits. But if you want a subtler sound, then put your overdrive last and don’t have your distortion pedal cranked up too much. An overdrive amp will boost your amplifier or will mimic a sound, whereas a distortion pedal will entirely alter your sound. What’s the difference between overdrive and distortion? On the other hand, if you place an overdrive pedal after a distortion pedal, you’ll boost the signal and can modify the sound of the effect. The term “stacking” refers to connecting more than one overdrive, distortion, or fuzz pedal together and using them both at the same time. It’s great for when you want to warm up an otherwise cutting distortion yet still want the high level of sustain it provides. For arguments sake, an overdrive is the pedal with the lower gain setting (the less dirty, cleaner sound). They only differ in the amount of volume they add, and in the timbre and type of. A distortion is the pedal. If you’re looking for more of a distorted gain style, then put it after the overdrive.
