I would love to hear a clip of this.

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BgQ4XBIF0v4[/youtube] starts around 5:30, the 4545 demo. I don't recall where in that, but when I hit my strings real hard is when it does it

I am in love with this pedal, the fact that the knobs make little to no sense to me makes it even better. It's like an easter egg hunt for brutal tones :joy:

Most importantly it gives me sounds at frequencies I wasn't hearing music gear make before, dog hearing range frequencies. This makes my ears very happy, now I don't have to just tolerate televisions, fluorescent lighting and dog whistles. I can make my own high frequency fun. Thanks Mr smallsound/bigsound

what do you mean the 'new' 4545? :?: Is it different from the old small-box version? :poke:

It has more bells and whistles (clean blend, input gain, and an awwwesome gate), but is the same heart, like the smaller boxes

The reason I asked is most settings seem like pure static or feedback. I wanted to know some usable settings. I dig the pedal but am have trouble dialing it in.

here's a few to try...

for more "normal" fuzzies:
texture - turn CCW for trashier, CW for more compressed
x - somewhere
y - fully CW
x, y switches - center
tracking - right
gate - off

laser blasts:
texture - to taste
x - somewhere between 7-12 o clock
y - wherever
x switch - left
y switch - center
tracking - left
gate - off?

octave down with poor tracking:
texture - change to fuck with tracking
x - wherever
y - fully CW
x switch - right
y switch - right
tracking - left
gate - off

super gated stuff:
texture - will change the gated-ness
x - somewhere CW past 8/9 o clock
y - wherever
x switch - left
y switch - center
tracking - right
gate - on

let me know if any of these help! if not, you can always call me.
