So a very American sounding pedal with sounds
that filled the airways of 70's thru the 80's.
The layout is less a mystery then it looks.
The fixed voice is bright and slashing. In fact it has a knob to cut the highs. The 'secret' is a 20 db upper mid boost. it fattens the sound ...helps push out more sustain and gives the pedal 'singing' quality's.
It cuts thru the mix without over powering the band.
it is kind of a cross between a cocked wah and a parametric EQ.
I use both so I can get the 'secret' on any dirt pedal. lol
CONCLUSION
I love poking holes in a lot voodoo tech hype but Micheal Fuller
not only created the modern legend ...with the Fulltone OCD he changed it
8 times when everyone was happy with it as it was. lol
Unlike other companies the changes were not do to parts being discontinued
by the manufacture or to make it cheaper or easier to build.
He did it because he could. lol
The bottom line is the guy is never happy with a 99% effort or result.
he has a great 'ear' for sound so his pedals simply sound 'good'
The real 'secret' is no exception ...if it sounds good it is good and as maker if you
have to rationalize why your pedal sounds good ...just do not release it.
