New 3leaf Pedal???

The name Funk Capacitor has semblance with Groove Regulator. The product line would depict more cohesiveness.
You know, the ability of the product to 'put some stank on it!'

Agreed. Thats why I propose "Groove Exaggerator", "Groove Tronicator", "Groove Mutilator"(!) or something like that.

Then again, I won't be in the market for this unless it gets an external volume control, so maybe I'm not allowed to vote for names :)


...But I do it anyway :p
 
Clean boost and Marshall Bluesbreaker-type circuit (lowish-gain overdrive) run in parallel. Individual level controls for clean boost and overdrive, drive and tone controls on the overdrive side, lowpass filter control on the clean side and highpass filter on the OD side. The circuit isn't finished yet, but I have some stuff laid out on a breadboard and it sounds killer. It doesn't do crazy over-the-top distortion, but it's very responsive to dynamics and perfect for emulating a saturated tube amp. Sits great in a mix.

maybe Spencer also needs a suggestion for naming the new distortion pedal?
