Fr. the Basic Audio website:

"A Resonant bandpass filter/frequency boost with control over Mix, Level and Frequency. From clean un affected signal to fully frequency boost. Adding some clean signal into the mix allows you definition with chords. With the mix set to max allows a very strong peaking effect such as a strong wah or filter effect... Great before a fuzz for a strong or mild wah type effect or feeding an amp or pedal for a stronger midrange or high end. The toggle switch selects between two different modes. A full mode and a thinner mode which dials in the amount of peaked frequency. When used with chords you can cop those small amp and hollow "honk" tones."

Yeah i can use googleif so i saw that. It doesnt say which toggle position does what, or what the 3rd knob does from 0%the vs 100%.

And theres like nothing online about it anywhere. I was hoping someone here has one.

Maybe those pgs nerds did a video. They usually explain stuff really well.

I don't think PGS is a Basic Audio dealer. So, no PGS video of it.

I've got one, but mine's a two knob. So, I can't be of specific help. I don't got no level knob. I think the toggle is oriented differently on the newer version, but on mine left is fuller range and right is thin. You should be able to hear the difference. CW on the mix knob is full effect. CW on the frequency knob is higher.

I'm running a Basic Audio tourbox on TGP and there's a Peak Freq included. So, you can ask there if you're on TGP.

You can also just ask John Lyons. He's usually pretty helpful.
