The AB-Synth has a custom option voice/bass toggle.
The Great Wall has a custom option bass toggle.

What about the Algal Bloom?

Choke Toggle!
Flip the toggle to turn the Algal Bloom into a more choked-out fuzz, brasher, lots of variable gated sounds by adjusting Gain and Trim! Basically, a different voice, and a variable gate!

Are you ever going to stop making your pedals so awesome? Fuck...

Can this be done to pedals people already have. Either buy sending it back or buying the parts and some instruction from you?

Yes, it can!

I've had a few people mail theirs in to be modded.
Probably best in most cases to mail it in. It involves pulling a diode off the board, running two wires off the board into a toggle (and drilling for the toggle)...it's not extremely difficult if you're used to doing things like that, but a bit delicate.

Nice! Thanks for the info.

I think I might be willing to try it myself. Being in Canada, the shipping costs both ways, mod cost, and the possibility of having to pay taxes again on something I already own at the border, is too great of a risk/expense for a mod. I've built my own Tweed Deluxe from a Trinity Amps kit and I've done a bunch of kit pedals, so I'm confident I could pull this one off.

Sounds useful! I'll have to get my AB pimped out at some point.

LowWat--I understand that! Especially being in Canada. If you want to try it, I'd be more than happy to mail what you need and instructions.

As long as you're looking for choked out and rough, I think it'll make you happy.

Discreet mod!

The Choke mod can also be on push-pull...pull out on the Starve control for the Choke mode!

Tom, you never cease to amaze.

Jesus Christo. I pretty much want to make out with this.

Damn I need to find these threads before I order stuff, I just got an Algal Bloom last night.

Eh, I'm glad I rushed and got it, I'm sure somebody else would've snatched it if I waited. I love that choked-out fuzz though, could you do something similar on the Great Wall?

Now you have me curious. Can the Chalice have that optional voice/bass toggle added?

Not really...flipping the Choke toggle cuts output a little. So while you're down there flipping the toggle, you can also increase the Level a bit.

Damnit, I was afraid you'd say that... (starts looking for a box to ship Chalice to Tom in)...
