Basiclly the first 1/3rd sweep of the adjust knob is the gated arpeggiation. As you turn the knob in the first 3rd the arp gets deeper and then slows down. At about 1 o'clock you can hear the oscillation start to come in. As you crank the knob there till about 4 o'clock it has a full osc pitch sweep. After that (knob fully clockwise) it's a really loud gainy fuzz. I had to adjust the volume to accomidate the balce this fuzz had.

So your looking at 3 very usable sounds. The first being the synthy short decay (great for leads), second being the osc mode (great for leads or rhythm), and third is a balls to the wall fuzz (also great for leads or rhythm).

I noticed the fuzz is pretty consistant in osc mode, it's the decay into the pitch osc that is different.

I had the vision of what I was looking for in my head. Think a really dense, noisy, fuzz. This fits the bill. I've played the fuzz factory and it's a pretty cool pedal, but hard to get to the same loved tones again. This is easy. It's like a knob twidlers fuzz made easy. My kinda fuzz, since I'm really indecisive. :idk: I can cop pretty similar fuzz factory tones that I enjoyed, quickly, easily, and cheaply. ;)

I hate to make that comparison. It's not a fuzz factory. It does sound different. But the basic fuzz is similar.

It's loud as hell!

Looks cool as hell!

Sounds even better!

And is all mine! :love:

Are you "gassing" yet? :cool:

Hopefully Eric will leave this the way it is. Otherwise I may need to get the revamped Mini CPU (strictly out of curiousity). I don't see this affecting Fuzzhuggers Wolf CPU. I'd look at that if I was a fanatical knob twidler. And I think it's fairly known you can get loads more sounds out of it.

PS; no bleed through on bypass.

Oh, and the noise you will bring.

It's meeting all of my desired fuzz needs. And in a simple two know format. I dont think it gets better than that. :idk:

This is a really great fuzz that isn't filled with traditional, yet still highly usable tones. And you don't have to fork out loads of money for Atari(ish), "Velcro(ish)" fuzz tones, or wall-o-sound fuzztones. All three are readily avaliable with the turn of a single knob. And then some.

Oh man I'm really hanging for this, I wonder if it's in the post yet? I took my time deciding whether or not I wanted it modified to production specs or have it left as is, I chose the latter but it took a few days for me to make up my mind.

the first third of the adjust knob gets short glitchy tones with slightly longer sustain as you turn. then it starts to get more fuzz and pitch changes in the decay then it goes in to a loud static velcro like fuzz.
