The drive goes from a light, nicely balanced overdrive to a medium gain distortion, with a fat bottom end, creamy mids and a sweet treble. It's bright without any excessive high end sizzle and the breakup is refined and worthy of it's decidedly Boutique flavored overall sound.
One footswitch turns the effect on and off and the other switches between the gain knob setting and the gain maxed, with a 10 dB boost. There is a wide variety of drive knob gain levels to contrast with the maximum gain and higher volume of the second setting, plus the bypass mode. The EQ of the effect is so balanced that you don't really miss having a tone knob.
The sounds the pedal gets are pretty tube-like and are so pleasant to the ears that I'd have to say this is one of the better pedals out there, especially for the extremely reasonable price. Along with it's charming hand-painted graphics, this is a super cool pedal that scream Boutique all the way.
