Haha, this thing is crazy. Definitely sounds like a page out of the Parasit playbook, but it is super fun. I have been really into playing bass lately and this might make a nice synth bass fuzz.
I put together a simple layout the other night that is a Shin-Ei Comparnion fuzz followed by a JPTR Jive minus all of the switching options. The switch I did include selects either the Jive with fixed diodes or the companion + the Jive. Plenty loud and very nasty on bass.
Ah ok -- thanks yo! It didn't look like there was any technical reason -- but I wanted to make sure I wasn't missing a key piece of rotary switch lore before I bought one. Thanks for the assistance!
Parts ordered! This is my biggest "regret" sell - can't wait to build this out
ReplyDeleteohh, looking forward to how it turns out, brave man.
DeleteYou can tag this one Anders, works as it should. Nice pedal, something different!!
ReplyDeleteDang! Awesome Ian!

hey -- this might be an obvious question -- but I'm new to this. Does anyone know a reason why you'd use a 1p12t rotary instead of just a 1p9t?
ReplyDeleteI think it's just easier & cheaper to source 1p12t rotary switches. There's no technical reason, though.
