fix'd fuzz, fuzz 2 sounds in a stand-alone pedal?

Postby Snufkino » Tue Jun 08, 2010 9:09 am

Has anyone used the blackout effectors fix'd fuzz? I've just sold mine as I couldn't really justify having it since I only really liked the second fuzz mode on it, and for the price, that's just excessive. So can anyone think of a fuzz which has sounds similar to it (fuzzhugger or otherwise)? It's a glitchy, velcro-ish fuzz with a nice thick bassy punch to it. An almost-but not quite a sub-octave tone that really cuts through. I've got a EQD dirt transmitter that might be able to get those sounds once I get a chance to sit down and mess about with it, but does anyone have any suggestions from experience?

that sounds like a fuzzhugger velcroar or velcroscillator, if you like oscillation, to me!!! :joy:

Devi Ever Disaster Fuzz or Mellowtown MiniWolf CPU also sound like what you're looking for.

Fuzzhugger Phantom Octave could be worth checking out, too.
:joy: things to do, things to re-do :omg:

Look up some fuzzhugger arc flash demos... when you dime the gain in both modes you get a similar sound to what your talking about.

Plus you get a whole bunch of usable tones in between! :thumb:

Jrmy: Exactly - "the fuzz is strong with that one."
