The momentary switch with the feedback loop can great some interesting sounds. I had it stacked into my DBA Interstellar Overdriver Supreme and was getting some crazy sounds combining the feedback loop with the envelope controlled trem setting on the IOS.
I think I heard somewhere that it is based on the big muff circuit. I am curious how it might be different from it or if it is even based on the muff at all.
Not asking for a schematic! I can hear similarities between it and my Dice Works Muff Diver but the tone controls have a greater range, there is more bass, and it seems to have a greater variety of sounds. This is just what I have noticed in the short time I have played it.
A friend who has played many pedals played through it and he thought it seemed more fuzz faceish than muffish. It is hard for me to say because the Muff Diver I have also seems to be a more touch sensitive pedal that will clean up some unlike some of the muffs I have played through (but not owned). The Muff Diver is the first muff I have owned.
It know that when the tone blast gets kicked in the tone controls are bypassed. Seems like it also bypasses the time warp?
A couple of thoughts:
One thing that could really be cool with the Eau Claire is just to remove the momentary switch for the feedback loop and have it on all the time with a knob and an expression pedal out to control how much it is feeding back. Level on the knob/expression pedal could be 0 > full on. Tune could also be interesting with an expression pedal out methinks.
I think it would be nice to have the time warp switch as a foot switch.
