Right, here are my settings. 2 pics for each of the Synth tones, one of the Dynamics page and one of the Oscillators page. Some of these sounds are very odd and quite harsh, but are used sparingly. I've given them a brief description below… I use this with my Roscoe 6 string Fretless, light gauge strings, and through a TC Electronics BG500 210. Tonally the settings below work great with that combination. You may need to use your PC's zoom function to read all the exact numbers!

Non-Latching switch added. Works perfect! :-)

THIS HAS NOW BEEN TRADED Hi People, This is a very tentative feeler… This pedal is great, I use it and actually really like what it can do. There is a portion of its wild side that I don't go near, but as a high gain fuzz with 'spluttery' tendencies it hits the nail on the head. I have just finished putting together a pedalboard for my current project and space is tight to say the least. The Fuzzhugger is a medium sized pedal, but a larger unit that I don't use very much, in fact Fuzz is the least used part of the board… however I still need one! As such I am putting this up as a feeler in trade for another high-gain fuzz (used in a synth-esque sense ran after Octave down) which has a smaller footprint, Ideally no wider than a Boss unit. Will 'consider' most brands as long as it's a thick creamy sound! The A-BSynth is a 1 foot switch version, with the Oscillator control on a toggle switch rather than a stop switch, it is number 22 made and has 1 of a kind paint job of the Wormwood plant (The plant used to make absynthe… get it!) and most importantly this one has the bass mod! It's a crazy pedal with so many sounds and styles it can be applied to it's nuts. If you want more info on the pedal - [url="http://www.fuzzhugger.com/pedal-ab-synth.html"]http://www.fuzzhugger.com/pedal-ab-synth.html[/url] Pedal is in great condition, although there are only 2 screws on the bottom plate (in opposite corners). They are a common size, but not bothered buying any as the bottom plate holds solid with just the 2. If I don't get a suitable offer I will keep it and find another way to condense the board. What ya' got!?

[quote name='samuel' post='955736' date='Sep 14 2010, 09:29 AM']cool, can i be a little cheeky and ask if you can post some of your settings as i get lost when trying to program sounds and end up back with the presets and with a sulk lol[/quote] Course. Might take me a day or so, but I'll try and take some screen shots for you. A few of the sounds you will prob hate, as they are real odd ring-mod type sounds and very thin. Used for ambient weirdness in my Drum&Bass stuff. There are a few cool ones I have set up, plus 3 solid octave tones. Bear in mind its set for use with my bass and amp combination and you will prob have to readjust the volume of each preset to suit you. I'll pop something up soon.

No expression or midi. It's a shame, BUT it's still a nice pedal without. The presets are good, but I have now overwritten all of them. Once you plug it into the computer you have so much control over the Oscilators that the sounds are endless.

Nice. Gotta love the blue neon board... Tis' the way forwards! -
[quote name='Silent Fly' post='955393' date='Sep 13 2010, 09:09 PM']+1[/quote] If anyone would know! :-) I find it actually pretty cool with the touch sensitive system! Obviously being the ground for the pedal is hardly ideal, but its pretty funky. Lol

[quote name='Mr. Foxen' post='955304' date='Sep 13 2010, 08:02 PM']The circuit is wired so the switch says to it 'change' instead of 'be on' or 'be off'. Latching is the switch having to hold it down, but it wants just a poke, hence the twice, to get the effect of a poke from a switch that holds down, as it were. It's easier to explain with the use of a finger.[/quote] I think I need the finger then… I have had a long day, but don't understand the explanation! lol [quote name='Ou7shined' post='955308' date='Sep 13 2010, 08:04 PM']Good point but if your circuit only requires a trigger then a latching switch can only supply that every second hit. It may be that while in the "half on" position that simply earthing it is a sufficient trigger hence the change of state by touching. I might be totally wrong though - I'm in the middle of a bad migraine and am finding it hard to think clearly (it took me 4 attempts to write the word "that" a minute ago) but it seemed to make sense to me during a moment of clarity. [/quote] That I understand… Assuming it's correct, it makes perfect sense! :-)

I thought a non-latching switch would just act as a momentary switch (so only work as long as it's held down)…? Will that be the cause of the 'touch' issue as well?

Hi, I have a Moogerfooger MF-102 Ring Modulator. I was having some issues with the foot switch where I had to press it 4 or 5 times for it to turn off… As such I took it to a local store who replaced the foot switch for a new one for me today. Just got in and tried the pedal and something very odd is happening… firstly it seems to be on a 2-press cycle, so pressing the foot swich means it only works every other time without fail, so pressing in sequence is - On, On, Off, Off, On, On, Off, Off etc… Secondly, whilst the pedal is 'on', just touching the foot switch turns the pedal on and off. By touching I mean literally like you would touch an iPhone. This works while the jack is either connected to an instrument, or held in your hand. If you unplug from the bass and put the jack on the floor then the touch sensitive system doesn't work. Its as if th pedal is taking a charge from me and using that to electrically turn the pedal on and off… Confused? I am! I will obviously take it back tomorrow to the chap that fitted the new switch, but wondered if anyone could shed some light on either the 2-press cycle, or the odd 'touch' control its developed! Shep

Great pedal. Buy it. Nuff' said! :-)

Refinishing my Yamaha RBX775 - help me decide !
pantherairsoft replied to Machines's topic in Build Diaries
Hope the finish comes up that sharp. Looks lovely. I imagine the loo would indeed be fiddly via the above method... But worth a go I'd say! -

At first I thought it sounded a little silly and annoying. But by the end of the piece it kind of just becomes ambience and actually fills the sound out quite a lot. Good idea though!

pantherairsoft replied to dudewheresmybass's topic in Effects
Nothing interesting... Better cable added and a compact rightangle switchcraft jack put on it to conserve space and not have loads of excess cable flying around. -
Post your pedal board - Basschat style!!
pantherairsoft replied to dudewheresmybass's topic in Effects
The new board is awesome, but was having some issues with pedal layout as the pedals I want at the front (as I use them more) are considerably bigger than those at the back. Looked around eBay, found someone cutting perspex to requested size and as thick as you like... And I came up with this... Blocks held in place with strong Velcro, just like the pedals placed on them. Everything holds strong and means I can move and remove them easily. The blocks are 2cm high, making it just the right height to lift the pedals... Pics of the finished board when I get my Moogerfooger back this week with a new footswitch and a mod to the EP-2 pedal Shep -
Buy a 1U rack vent panel cover and cut it down to size? Alternatively, contact the maker of any amp you have seen the one you like on and ask if they can supply you with just that part to replace a damaged one. I doubt many would say no.

For Sale EBS Drome 12" Combo (SOLD)
pantherairsoft replied to TheDaivisch's topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale
How does this do in pure volume? I love the EBS tone and own a Fafner, a few Neoline Cabs and the Classic Session 60. I needed a combo to be portable for my Drum & Bass project but couldn't find anything that could produce the required volume to compete with a drummer, whilst being able to handle Octave & Envelope Filters. I tried a few amps around the 100w marker and they just couldn't do it, I was lucky enough to get my hands on a TC BG500, which is so loud it never gets above 3, but it is 500w. I do however miss the EBS tone I'm used to, and would still like a smaller combo if it can take my effects and the volume i throw at it. Shep -
I run 2 4ohm cabs into my Fafner for a 2ohm draw. God knows why! I don't need it! :-) Not really aware of any production line 2ohm cabs though, although i'm sure you could get something custom built
