A Green Muff with mods for a guy in Germany

Is this the same as Dot's Modded Muff? It looks really nice and put together with the decal and everything.

Indeed it is.

Mike,

I bought Noirie's dual drive off him a couple of weeks back and I have to say it is an absolutely amazing pedal.

I seriously couldn't be happier with the sound of it. Also there's the double bonus of the OCD being terrifyingly loud, in the best way possible! I'm still getting to grips with the Catlinbread(hyperpak is it?) and trying to use the two of them together but on their own they sound lovely.

I'm actually quite sad that my Turbo RAT isn't getting a look in anymore as this was my main OD/Distortion for a good while. I'm sure I'll find a use for it in the future.

The design has been getting some kudos too!

Well the design was all benecol's work so any graphic stuff should go his way - but I'm glad it's gone to someone who is enjoying it and having fun with it. I appreciate the kind words.

Teetering between that stereo Small Clone and a Salt Shaker
the small clone would have to be modded to bits unfortunately.

depth pot
dpdt on/off/on to switch caps for the lfp rate
pulsing led
mix pot
stereo output

probably too much of a hassle im sure, and Â£80 for a tremolo pedal that diverse is just crazy tempting

OK so a Small Clone with a Depth Pot I can probably do for Â£80 which is mates rates, the chips and PCBs ain't cheap.

- DPDT on/off/on to switch caps for rate
I only have info for a 4 way switch on this so you'd have to choose what values you wanted from the tonepad site, but I suspect around Â£5 to add this

- Pulsing LED
Don't know how to do this with this design, also I don't see what use this would be on a chorus pedal

- Mix Pot
Again don't have details of this

- Stereo Output
I have a board, it'd be Â£10.

It's up to you

Judging by the layout, is it a timmy clone?

Must dig out my tommy clone today and have a mess around.

is that the caitlinbread pedal that's kinda like an old bass amp?

Post by **Mike** » Fri Jul 09, 2010 7:35 am

Indeed. It's pretty fuzzy up the gain dial also.

Oooh, I just watched some videos. It sounds massive.

That looks fantastic. Off to checkout some demos of it.

Btw Mike, do you know what sorta amp the Hyperpak is based on?

Post by **Mike** » Fri Jul 09, 2010 2:23 pm

It's not based on an Amp, it's a CMOS Hex Inverter

out of interest, what kinda effect would bypassing the tone control on a DLS do?

Post by **Mike** » Fri Jul 09, 2010 2:49 pm

Make it trebly as shit.

Progrockabuse · Post by **Progrockabuse** » Fri Jul 09, 2010 3:02 pm

i've spent my past few days going through my MBM stuff. why i why did i take the DLS of the board.
