Lots of great sounds in this box, and the build is amazing.

I've messed with the Pest Tattern in different positions in the signal chain and:
1) it's awesome has a thousand different sounds and its behaviour changes completely depending on where it's placed.
2) it's really hard to nail same sound twice, wich is equally frustrating and fascinating
3) i don't know why but this pedals unleashes my inner Corgan, so everytime i pickup the guitar i end up playing a SP tune without even relizing it :facepalm:
4) is it just me or the osc switch doesn't do anything except cutting down the volume? maybe it's my setup/pickups :idk: :poke:

Dude, your demo was literally the first demo I've sat through the whole way since the whole #knobs #aesthetic #curated thing rolled in and shat on pedal demos.

OSC when it's off should be a pretty vanilla fuzz. Osc down and then the noise and chaos switches come into play and shit gets cray.

The OSC switch definitely does something. :love: :trippy: :rock: I rarely switch mine off.

(Might be your rig/pickups. :idk: If you're not running Pest Tattern first in your chain, try it first.)

Yeah this pedal owns. The normal fuzz is excellently voiced, and the crazy side of things rips. I’ll try on drum machine later

It's good to remember that vanilla is an unusual and exotic plant and that the vanilla bean extract is highly delicious.

It’s a lot more versatile than I expected! It’s also quieter than I expected. But that’s a problem I’ve had a lot with fuzz pedals and my guitar. The Chaos and Noise switches are interesting. With how I’ve tried them so far, they’ve had only a minor effect on what’s happening. I’ll keep experimenting, though. This is definitely the best Devi not Devi fuzz I’ve played. It’s weird this wasn’t more popular when they were making this originally.
