BUILD NOTES

Circuit architecture

This circuit has several cascaded gain & clipping stages, but overall it's pretty linear without a lot of

interaction between the sections. Here is a block diagram of how the circuit is arranged:

Setting the gain trimmer

The circuit has an on-board internal trimmer to adjust the overall gain range of the circuit. This is

different from the external gain control. As you can see in the block diagram above, this gain stage

comes after the two soft-clipping stages, but before the final hard-clipping stage. It's a simple op-amp

stage that boosts or cuts the signal going into the hard clipping stage, so it primarily impacts the amount

of hard clipping.

At its stock setting of 12:00, the pedal could be considered a medium-gain drive. By turning it up, you

can shift it into the mid-to-high gain range.

Conversely, by turning it down, you can have better control over the low gain range, but the pedal will

lack the high-gain tones that you might expect from it.
