There's lots of ways to use an overdrive pedal. But what's the right way to use one on electric violin? Here are some of my favorites:
-As an "always on" tone shaper
-As a low gain, "amp-like" bit of grit
-Medium gain chunky stuff for rhythm playing
-Woolly lead tones that are thick and smooth
-Cutting lead tones with lots of treble, to slice through a mix
-Absurd amounts of gain, for fuzz-like sustain
Not every overdrive pedal on the market does all of those things, but as you'll see today, the Electronic Audio Experiments Dagger can do all that and more. A super versatile pedal!

JHS Show on the history of distortion: https://youtu.be/XTGmfsKHcXo
" on different types of overdrives: https://youtu.be/8wVShbGe4pk
Those reference videos are super useful if you're new to overdrive (and even if you've been using drive pedals for years, you'll probably learn something).
