Der Big Fuzz ist eine Muff-Schaltung, die grundlegend neu abgestimmt wurde, um den Klang, die Spielbarkeit und die Vielseitigkeit des Pedals zu verbessern. Dies ist eine moderne Fuzz-Verzerrung mit einem satten Sound und höherer Verstärkung und Sustain als die klassischen russischen Muff-Versionen, die ich herstelle.

The Big Fuzz is a muff circuit, which has been critically re-tuned to improve the tone, playability, and versatility of the pedal. This is a modern fuzz-distortion, with a big sound and higher gain and sustain than the classic Russian version muffs which I make.

Big Fuzz

Das Tsuchi Fuzz V2 bietet einen neuen Blick auf die klassische Zwei-Transistor-Fuzz-Schaltung. Der Ton der Schaltung wurde an jedem Shaping-Punkt sorgfältig bewertet, um entweder klassische oder moderne Fuzz-Töne zu erzeugen.

Für ein klassisches Germanium-Fuzz drehst du den GAIN-Regler zurück und den CUT-Regler ganz nach oben. Lassen Sie den BASS EXPANDER ausgeschaltet.

Für einen umgestalteten Geschmack: Drehen Sie den GAIN höher. Das ist mehr Gain, als man aus einem Zwei-Transistor-Fuzz herausholen sollte, aber wenn man den CUT-Regler ein wenig zurückdreht, kann man den Bottom-End-Flabbiness straffen und einen raffinierten Fuzz-Drive erzeugen. Der BASS EXPANDER kann optional verwendet werden, um das durch den CUT-Regler reduzierte tiefe Ende zu ersetzen.

The Tsuchi Fuzz V2 takes a new look at the classic two-transistor fuzz circuit. The circuit's tone has been carefully evaluated at every shaping point, to produce either classic or modern fuzz tones.

For a classic germanium fuzz, dial the GAIN back, and turn the CUT right up. Leave the BASS EXPANDER off.

For some reshaped flavour: turn the GAIN up higher. This is more gain than you should rightfully squeeze out of a two-transistor fuzz, but dialing the CUT knob back a little can tighten the bottom-end flabbiness and make some refined fuzz-drive. The BASS EXPANDER can optionally be used to-taste to replace the low end reduced by the CUT control.

TsuchiFuzz

My tremolos are easily my favourite circuits, and have occupied more of my design time than anything else. This was my first unique effect circuit design from scratch, which I started in high school. Development took over a decade before I was happy with the way that it sounded and functioned.

By shining a fluctuating light against a photo-sensitive field, this tremolo uses all-analog photocoupling to restrict and modulate the output volume. Careful waveform construction, with non-linear shaping, creates an organic and lively volume fluttering, far divorced from sounding like a basic electronic waveform function. The square wave is similarly processed, so as not to sound like a computerised chop.

Optical Tremolo

This pedal is the classic ratty fuzz/distortion. This is a sound of the '80s and '90s, with some Dazatronyx tweaks. This is achieved by a two-stage distortion of first overdriving the metal can 308 amplifier into fuzz, and then recovering some shape by further compressing the signal using hard-clipping silicon diodes.

The HAIR control dials the mid/high drive saturation. Turning this completely to the right achieves the classic metallic ratty distortion. Turning this left achieves a full, flattened response. This is a variable version of the popular reutz mod.

In the (optional) germanium mode, the silicon chip fuzz character gets removed. Germanium transistors and germanium diodes are used to achieve a rounded and organic overdrive-distortion with tight definition. While this adds interesting versatility, the stock silicon mode is still my favourite setting.

Rad Distortion

Der Dreistellungsschalter schaltet zwischen Verstärkermodellen mit unterschiedlicher Verstärkung und Sättigung im unteren Frequenzbereich um. Dies wird durch einen bipolaren Siliziumtransistor-Vorverstärker erreicht, wobei die sekundäre Verzerrung durch J201-Feldeffekttransistoren erzeugt wird.

Diese Schaltung ist der Ort, an dem ich gelandet bin, nachdem ich gebeten wurde, Pedale ähnlich dem Lovepedal Les Lius zu bauen, das im Grunde eine Electra-Verzerrungsschaltung aus den 70ern ist.

The three-position switch toggles between amp models of varying gain and bottom-end saturation. This is achieved by a bipolar silicon transistor preamp, with secondary distortion created by J201 field effect transistors.

This circuit is where I have landed from requests to build a pedals similar to the Lovepedal Les Lius, which is fundamentally a '70s Electra Distortion circuit.
