So... I need all those pedals... And a Foxx Tone Machine.

Sounds about right, cheers for helping me whittle it down guy :joy: :lol:


No no no - we ARE helping you whittle it down. We're saying screw the muffs & octaves, just do a Tone Machine instead!

Well, all right... you've got TWO muffs on your list. Just skip the op amp muff, add the Tone Machine and call it a day!

I'm down with this. I've whittled down to just a Tone Machine and an IC Muff for fuzzes. Unless you count my Orbit, but that's not just a fuzz.

SEE?!?! The Rhode Island Fuzz Mafia has spoken! Now do as we say, or you'll wake up with a disembodied Tube Screamer on your pillow!

But... Bigchief said IC Muff... you said Transistor Muff... so technically I have to have both or i'll end up with a disembodied Tube Screamer on my pillow... but if I have both i'll also end up with a... I think i'm getting a disembodied tube screamer :lol:

Hybrid Transistor/ Op-Amp Muff Circuit time!

That's actually a pretty cool idea. A half-and-half muff with 2 trannies and a dual op-amp ... hmmm

I might have to go breadboard that when I have some free time...

That's the idea! It'd satisfy both my needs... it probably wont sound anyyy different to one or the other but... screw it.

I'll let you know how I get on if I try it first.
