Returning mine.... it's actually quite good, better than any other octave/fuzz I have tried, but it's just a little too spitty for me. I'd like something a bit warmer and smoother.... like my BOG with the added octave
[for those who don't know, the BOG is supposedly the Octavia with it's octave removed]
From everything I read, it looks like MJM is probably the way to go. Contacting him today.
Tell me about the 9v - 24v switch, does it make a big enough difference?
Yes its the Ty circuit and yes we will be doing a germanium mod to give it more character and less grind....
Good point....and thats true of most circuits .... there are looots of ways to sculpt the variables and thats one reason there are an infinite number of possible pedals.....Cool, thanks for the confirmation that it is indeed the Ty circuit... with all these clones of that circuit, I wonder what makes them sound different? Some sound fatter/thicker, some sound spittier/thinner, etc...
