This is late but with the algal bloom I have....
So much garage rock fuzz moving smooth kick ass overdrive fun. It's good to have a fuzz pedal that I don't crank the fuzz knob on. I dig the smooth fuzzy overdrive tones this thing puts out. Video demo/review soon.

Very cool! Video demos and word-of-mouth are pretty much my entire advertising.

I think The controls are ( from L to R):
Volume: Self Explanitory
Starve: Cuts the 9v supply
Gain: Raises or lowers the fuzziness
Trim: Intensity of the fuzz
The controls on my Ab #2 aren't labeled either, but I think I have that right.

That's right!

Starve is a volt reducer (does full 9 volts at hard left and reduces).
Also, the Trim is basically Gain.

I think my favorite thing about the Algal Bloom is the way the Gain and Trim controls interact with each other. Such a groovy pedal
