I do like me some trombone tones.
Yeah, it looks like I neglected the little code at the end that makes private tracks accessible. I've updated the link in my original post, but here it is again:

http://brownrainbow.com/other/prettyyears-trombone.mp3I did some experiments, tweaking this and that knob, and it's easy to lose the tromboniness. The key element is the FM knob, where there's a very narrow range where it gets that spitty sound. And bringing up either gain knob brought out too much guitarishness. And I thought playing with fingers instead of a pick might work, but it seems like it needs the attack from a pick.
I have a fairly high amount of possession-anxiety about the Pretty Years, since it does so many things that no other pedal does and getting another one would be prohibitively expensive.
