Description

The RaingerFx Dr Freakenstein Fuzz DrFF-3 and Igor is a full-on fuzz distortion pedal, housed in Rainger's own original design steel desk-type enclosure. Along with a volume control, there’s an overtone knob which controls the pitch of the harmonic overtone in the sound. This sounds great at any setting, but becomes very exciting as you adjust it – like a cross between a wah wah and a phaser. So an LFO option is incorporated to modulate this control (giving a triangle wave-shape, speed adjustable from a slow sweep to a fast wobble). There’s a switch (‘MOD’) on the front panel to turn this on or off, the status and speed of the oscillator shown by the red and white throbbing meter backlight. The DrFF-3 has a hi/lo intensity pushbutton on the back panel, switching the overtone from a lower ‘inside the sound’ to a higher-pitched in-your-face zip. On the low setting it’s possible to get a strong – perfectly tracking – low octave introduced, especially when the guitar’s neck pickup is selected. Add an LFO fast wobble, and great thick organ-esque tones are possible.
