bassist_lewis Posted July 4, 2024 Posted July 4, 2024 My pedal arrived Monday and had a few days to play around with it. First and foremost, my cats hate it. They slink away as soon as they hear it. HOWEVER, I love it. I honestly thought it would be just another fuzz with a lot of hype around and I was mostly getting it to complete my 3 Leaf Audio collection. But it turns out it's an amazing circuit. It's really responsive to dynamics, I particularly like tuning the Gain knob down and getting a tube-ish overdrive. It also goes hard, with it getting octave fuzz-like above the 12th fret. And synth tones to die for. Only thing I'm not getting my head round are the X-over and Your/You're switches. I don't hear much difference with the former, and the latter just seems to give a scooped sound. What they do isn't clearly explained in the instruction sheet. That said, the pedal sounds great. PS the lettering glows in the dark. 1 Quote
bassbora Posted July 4, 2024 Posted July 4, 2024 I got mine also couple of days ago. I think its great I am currently pairing it with a Wonderlove and I think it sounds great. I am waiting on a Xerograph D and hoping it will be even better. The Your/You're switch is up is the Doom circuit more synthy (I cant be bothered trying to find the right blurb) but the down should be more normal fuzz. The X over used to say bass. In the up position you have the unaffected bass coming through and the fuzz circuit is only applied to the mid and treb frequencies. The bass knob is not the bass in the EQ but the dry volume and the mid and treb knobs only affect the fuzz circuit in case you were wondering lol 1 Quote

PS the lettering glows in the dark. The x-over means the dry signal knob brings in a low-pass-filtered dry signal instead of a full range one. It basically brings on only the lower frequencies from your dry bass sound, which is often a better way to blend in with the wet (distorted) signal. To hear what it does, dial out the wet signal entirely and flip the toggle between the two positions. 2 Quote
