I just got a new BJF EGDM. I had one about a year or 2 ago and loved it. I switched rigs and sold all my pedals. Now I am back to using pedals and wanted another, so I bought a new one.
I don't know why, but this one sounds different, and I am having trouble dialing it in. It could be simply because I am running a different amp, but I feel like this new one is woofier in the lows and low mids, with not much upper mid punch.
If I crank the voice it softens the lows a little and boosts mids, but becomes too dark. So perhaps if I boost the trimmer inside I can balance it.
My question : bjf says not to operate pedal without the back-plate on, or damage may occur. However, I need to have the thing on and play through it to adjust the trimmer by ear. Is it safe to have it on and upside down to adjust trimmer?? I don't need to stomp on it with the back off, but I have to hear the signal to dial it in. What is the scoop?
