Yee the trim pots seems to effect the upper freqensis(shimmer),while
the tone pot is more upper midrange.

It's a presence control, which is pretty effective. It seems to me that the only reason why it's not on top of the box is the fact that there's no space left with six knobs and two footswitches.

Perhaps Analog.Mike could share his ideas about this design??

I found that adjusting the trimpots too much gave me sizzle and fizz something I don't need/want/like...I cracked em open slightly for a touch more presence and have left it there ever since...

Agreed. You've gotta use 'em, but you've got to use 'em SPARINGLY. -E
