The Sushi Box FX Secret Society

[JackFawkes]

I think since the description on the website has an extensive account for every knob, everybody should be fine.

Controls:
Bite – controls how much the kitten will bite
Meow – controls how much the kitten will meow
Rawr – controls the general amount of rawr the kitten will produce
Growl – controls how much the kitten will growl
Purr – controls how much the kitten will purr
Hiss – controls how much the kitten will hiss

Actual controls spoiled below...

Spoiler: Explanation by Sushi Box from Page 393

I'm taking a quick snack break, so now seems like as good a time as any to give a description of Fluffy Kitten. I'll get it updated on the website soon as well.

Fluffy Kitten is a high gain distortion using a low-voltage JFET setup. Each JFET stage is manually biased to play nicely with the others, with the goal of getting as much rich gain as possible without oscillation. It will still get noisy as you crank the gain though, as you would expect of a high gain circuit. Fender style tone stack with capacitors tweaked a little for more low end. Plays well with guitar and bass.

Controls:
Bite = Gain
Meow = Presence
Rawr = Volume
Growl = Bass
Purr = Mids
Hiss = Treble

Takes 9-12V input, but actually now that I think about it I think it can go up to 18V. I'll have to double check. Typical polarity protection I put in everything so polarity of input doesn't matter. Super low current draw, like it doesn't even register on the lab power supply that I use for current testing. Safe to say less than 10mA.

I promised @Sonicblaze I would get that updated on the website and haven't yet, whoops

Mmm fully Kittens. Although Mr. Fluff had to get the LED jewel treatment, that green LED might rival the MBD2's blue LED in blinding ability

Is that one of the Rockboard LED Dampers?

Yup! They have a few different styles, and work amazing.

I was planning to do a bunch of work on the October batch tonight, but my wife talked me into driving to Milwaukee to check out a show, so not sure how much time I'll have.

Insure domestic tranquility...

Enjoy the show!

 

[moon-bass]

Nice! My PA is that purple. I just got my UAX and I'm enjoying it as well. Enjoy.

I have purple PA too!

Unfortunately (fortunately?) it's not, we're going to see The Hu. My wife is originally from Mongolia, and I lived over there for 3 1/2 years, so we're pretty big on anything Mongolian. Also apparently their frontman is the little brother of a dude we know, so that's neat.

Nice. Enjoy.
Although they're Tuvan, I saw Huun Huur Tu at the Old Town School of Folk Music in 2003 and it is still one of the best shows I've seen.

My Generation is such a classic.

It was a killer show, they were amazing. I'm suspecting they might be endorsed by Schecter, that's all the guitarist and bassist played. No amps, couldn't see what they had on the floor. Got some good pics of everyone, the band looked like they were haviнg every bit as much fun as the crowd. Opening band was okay, bassist played a Mustang into a Rumble, guitarist played a PRS into a Kemper with a 212 Orange cab.

Obviously my wife was thrilled to have me point this all out to her.

Some wives do get those things, mine occasionally does.

As long as they smile and nod and pretend to be impressed with your superior gear knowledge it's all good!

I can't point that out to my wife either. She's also a bass player as well as a professional lighting director and stage hand, so she always points out the gear to me first. She'll often send me pics of the big name bands gear while she's 40' in the air adjusting the stage lights.

Glad you enjoyed the show!

 

[Sushi Box FX]

She nods, no smile though. I just get a "mm-hmm" as she pretends to listen It doesn't ruin anything for her, after almost 10 years of marriage she just knows it's going to happen and there's nothing she can do to stop it.

One gear-related thing my wife did comment on though, the morin khuur (horse-head fiddle) players used a couple pedals, and as she noticed me trying to see what they were she suggested that I translate my website into Mongolian in an attempt to lure them in to use my stuff
