Check out this demo vid, yeaah:

I'd love one if the stages were footswitchable.

I owned one for a while.
It was made to do several things in a small space (for cramped pedalboards), and it's
great by those standards.
The modes are all on toggles, so it's not easy to switch on the fly--switching modes can cause some volume changes, which make it a bit difficult to switch on the fly.
So for home-playing, studio-playing, it works well, but it's not a quick-switcher.
I also thought the boost mode was one of the best boosts I've heard (added a bit more noise than I'd hoped, but just
very sweet sounding)...also, the boxy fuzz and fuzz-with-boost was great! Some of the other combos had too much noise for me (but not for most of you guys!

).
BUT--for doing a lot of different things and fitting it all in a small box, it's pretty impressive. And the internals are really nice.

given this feedback it would be cool to have a second switch that rotates through each of the toggle settings, maybe adding a resistor to each setting to balance out the volume (me, acting as if I know how to make fx).

Heyy everybody, thanks for your replies and thoughts. How about other great overdrive pedals that are super versatile like the Fx'd Fuzz? Any other good ones out there?
And "theinteriorleag" I totally adore your profile picture. Where did you get it from??
