Korg Mr Multi FK-2 (plus fuzz) demo

Rainy, lazy day today so I had some time to muck around with GarageBand and get a rough and ready demo of the fabulous Korg Mr Multi FK-2 phaser/wah/double wah filter thingy.
I've been listening to nothing but French music for the last few days so I figured I'd do a track using the riff from the incroyable Jean-Pierre Massiera/Les Chats Renaissance song, "Bizarre". Two guitar tracks. The right track (which you'll hear first) uses a Faustone Fuzz Unit and the Mr Multi in pedal/phaser mode, basically using it as a fixed or parked phaser. Set the rocker and parked it (except at the very end). The left track uses a jerms Fuzzstainer and the Mr Multi set at double wah (phaser plus wah), first in auto mode, so the treadle controls the sweep of the LFO, then in pedal mode (solo at the end), where it becomes a kind of vocal/synthy wah. Tried to show the range of the LFO sweep in auto mode as well as the wobbly bits in pedal mode.
Recorded straight into GarageBand.



EDIT: Just realised that Soundcloud doesn't support Flash anymore so the embedding above won't work. You'll need to follow this link if you're keen:

Holy syncronicity, I was just using my fk2 after a hiatus, and then saw this thread.

^ Saw that, thanks, Dino.
I did play with the internal trimpot, following some very helpful tips from Pepe, but ended up leaving it at the factory setting. Biggest boost I got to the sound was simply by adjusting the rack gear to bring in the higher frequencies of the potentiometer.
