It should have been called the Cuddle, or the Foreplay. :lol:

Sup. Bass control is essential to me, as well as the fact that with it's footprint I can fit it on my board whereas a fuck would come at the expense of something else. Not worth it when I can just Mini away :)

I also felt it does a different kind of subtle dirt thing. Both amazing, this just different.

As much as I would love to Fuck, I'm just fine being a Mini boy. I agree wholeheartedly with neon. It gets the overdrive toanz I've always dreamed of. I love being loud and feeling that bass kick in. So satisfying.

I contemplated getting a fancy MIDI switcher for all of 5 minutes and decided not to because of how much joy I get from stomping on the Mini and hearing it purr.

I've never tried a Fuck though, and would really like to, but I've already found my perfect overdrive. Why would I keep looking?

Cannot praise enough. Also, if you ever get a chance to run Mini into Midfi Overdrive, that is an ilfgaze fest par excellence.

Running a Mini into ANYTHING is awesome.

I've found with big saturated squishy fuzz it adds some bite back to the sound. A slight bit of clarity.

Low gain Mini is awesome after delay and modulation. Adds grit without losing all character.

Or set it up as a fat clean boost and then drop the bias, stick it after everything else, and use it as a signal fucker.

Soon, I hope to be rocking dual Minis. Reverb->Mini->other stuff->Mini->reverb. :animal:

This has the ring of ultimate truth. Brian, make the dual Mini with fx loop the ILF standard, then we will all put everything in the Mini loop, thus bringing this Age of Mankind to an appropriate end. Next Age? The Unending Sun of the Pizza Cat.

I'd be into a dual Mini/Fuck with switches to toggle parallel/series and order annnd an fx loop in between the two. Might as well throw in some oscillation in there too

Until then I'm pretty happy owning both with a Secret Destroyer to cover the crazy oscillation territory :snax:
