So I had to print off the instructions just so I could start to fathom this thing...thats all I'm going to say for now 
That's one of coolest looking pedals I've ever seen! There are some seriously bada$$ pedals being made right now (thinking of Iron Ether) and now this.... gnome invasion.
Gnome Army #13 in the house! Nice - most exclusive club on TB (?)
The VTF KILLS. Still so much to explore!

Well, tracking info said it passed through customs yesterday, which means it'll be here tomorrow morning... *drools*

I've only got to play with mine for about an hour or two (waay not enough time), but it really is incredible. Definitely not what I was expecting (in a good way). I normally go for a particular fuzz tone (doom), with the result being that I have two or three pedals that do the same sound. This one isn't like that. Not that the classic big muff sounds aren't in there, it just doesn't sound like my supercollider or my Pickle Pie B. I've never had a Brassmaster (in there) or a gated synth-y fuzz (in there, too) and I was having a lot of fun exploring the new sounds (can't wait till my Noisebox and Xerograph get here
). Again, I haven't spent nearly enough time playing with this bad boy to get too much of a handle on it, but that was my initial impression. I also haven't been able to get any oscillation tonez yet. Any suggestions?One thing I did notice is that if you are knob-fiddling your way to a particular tone based on a certain setting on the switches, changing one switch has a HUGE impact (overall tone, volume, etc.) on the sound as a whole. This is part of what makes this pedal so versatile and unique, but it is going to take a serious amount of time before I am able to jump to a particular sound on the fly.
Anyway, GREAT job McSpunkle!! Can't wait for another day off
+ a lot to the above post. You get a sound that you're digging and you flip one toggle and you're in another world of tone!
I just have not had enough time to explore. Need. More. Time.

I have found that if both diodes are set to the middle there is a HUGE volume jump, incredibly huge lol. But it didn't clip the pre-amp on my head either... weird, but cool.
Any suggestions on getting a bassier tone? Should I change out some diodes?
