! Volume: When turned to the right the volume increases, when turned to the left the
volume decreases.
! Tone: When turned to the right the higher frequencies are increased, when turned to the left the
higher frequencies are reduced.
! Gain: When turned to the right the gain is increased, when turned to the left the
gain is decreased.
! Fat: When switched to the right the “fat” effect is off, when switched to the left it is on.
! Treble: This is a three-way switch for voicing the highs. The middle position offers no treble cut
whereas the up and down positions allow for two different treble cut values.
! Clip: This is a three-way switch for clipping. The middle position takes all the diodes out of the
circuit, which is ideal for clean boosts (we recommend bringing the gain down in this
position). When switched up or down, different diodes are activated to create additional
clipping sounds.
Settings
Experiment with all the settings since they offer a variety of tones and feel! We recommend that you start with
all the control knobs at 12:00 o’clock. When you apply a clipping diode you will notice a slight drop in volume
but it adds warmth and compression to your sound. There are two different diodes that have two different
sounds to choose from. This makes the pedal very flexible for use with different amp/guitar combinations.
If you choose to run the clip switch in the middle position you will remove any diodes from the circuit. By doing
this it hits the opamp directly so that it can create fuzz-type tones in higher gain settings. We designed this
position to work as a boost mode. If the gain is set to around 9:00 o’clock or less then the volume becomes
your boost volume. By feathering in the gain to taste you can make the pedal clean or slightly dirty. The
sweet spot on this pedal is when the volume is increased to around 1:00 to 2:00 o’clock.
All J. Rockett Audio Designs pedals operate off of the standard BOSS type 9 volt adapter or a single 9 volt
battery. The power input is a 5.5 mm x 2.1 mm jack with the positive voltage on the outer sleeve. Using an
external power supply will automatically disconnect the battery. Disconnect the input jack to preserve battery
life when not in use or when not used with an appropriate, external power supply.
