The TightDrive™ overdrive pedal is the first Amptweaker pedal, a gain pedal that features the TIGHT control. This tweaks the amp's attack, and when combined with the Gain, Tone and Volume controls, a lot of different distortion sounds are possible. 
This distortion pedal has the ability to dial in varying amounts of crunch - From barely clean singing blues tones, to crunchy rhythm sounds, all the way up to seriously overdriving your tube amp for tight chunky lead solos. Whether you're using it with a clean amp, or to beat up your heavy amp, this pedal has the range to handle the job....it can even reduce the gain and tighten the attack to easily convert your heavy lead tone to a chunky rhythm sound. 
This pedal is a result of numerous product idea submissions received by AmpTweaker from people looking for overdrive and/or boost pedals that could provide tight a low end. This led to the Tight Control, which allows you to adjust the amp's attack, varying it from smooth and singing to chunky and aggressive attack. The Tone, Gain and Volume controls work pretty much like most other overdrive pedals. 
Another repeating theme heard by AmpTweaker was - Multiple Pedals. This led to the addition of an effects loop to the back of the pedal so you can add other effects directly to the signal loop. 
There is also a Pre/Post button underneath the pedal so you can move that outboard effect to the front of, or behind the TightDrive. When you bypass the TightDrive pedal, the other effect, or effects will be bypassed as well. This feature is great if you want to further tweak the distortion tone with an EQ, or add a compressor,or delay.
