Damnation Audio Fan/Appreciation Thread

Is the Bass Fuzz Enforcer a shrink up version of the BIG pedal without the boost? I'd be down for one if that is correct because I like the BIG pedal but I don't use the boost side.
If they are not exactly the same I'd still try one regardless.
I'm also curious about the Bass Fuzz Enforcer's relationship to the BIG. I do use the boost, both independently and in conjunction with the BIG's fuzz circuit, but the addition of the contoured clean blend has me excited.

Not the same circuit but some similar bits and pieces in the tuning. Plus the Fuzz Enforcer has the parallel blend and a second tone stack voicing.

As a rule we wouldn't just take the circuit from an artist pedal and call it something else. We made BIG for Evan and its meant to be its own thing.
 
Just got back into town after being stuck in California an extra day.

Bass Amp Grinder is our version of the ultimate rat for bass. We broke down every subcircuit and optimized it to solve for numerous problems bass players face in making the rat work for them. It retains gain structure and clarity throughout the full gain range without getting blown out or completely sagging into a woofy mess. The filter control has been converted to an active circuit with two modes for a vintage mid-forward tone and a more modern amp-like midrange voicing. The clean blend is our contoured clean blend that fills out the low end and low mids perfectly without sounding like a "clean blend." You feel it more than hear it and it feels good.
I can't wait to hear it

Bass Fuzz Enforcer is the same process but for the big muff. Includes selectable midrange voices in the tone stack and our contoured clean blend. Fully tweaked to hit hard on bass for folks that like muffs.

We have several dozen of these to build some time this week and then they will be available on the web site. We expect to have pro demos in May.

Do you mean they will be available on the website in the coming weeks? Or closer to May when you're hoping to have demos ready? Thanks!
