FEED ME

ABOUT FEED ME is a tone shaper, EQ, and possible level boost that takes any signal you feed it and applies a blend of high and low pass filters to provide the user with 20,736 different tone stacks of his/her choice. Yes, that is NOT a typo…20,736 combinations available via the four (4) 12-position rotary potentiometers (those four pointy colored knobs). This pedal can be placed in any position on your pedalboard. Place it first and have a switchable tone stack to drive your other pedals. It will alter the sound of your instrument and pickups. For example, set up a tone stack/sound to make your strat sound more like a tele or your P bass pickup sound like a J. Place it after your all of your pedals and let them be effected by the tone stack. Make a muddy delay sound brighter or scoop the mids on a middy drive to make it feel more brutal for your noodle. There’s no wrong way to use this pedal…maybe you should consider buying one for the front and another for the back of your board…just sayin’…

CONTROLS VOLUME – makes the output of the circuit louder or quieter. TONE – moves from bass to treble when turned clockwise. Depending on your selection on the 4 rotaries, the results vary! WHITE –R2 high pass filter resistors. RED – C1 high pass filter capacitors. BLUE – R1 low pass filter resistors. GREY – C2 low pass filter capacitors.

POWER Fuzzrocious Pedals’ products do not support batteries due to risk of damage to the unit and for ecological concerns related to the use and disposal of batteries. It is the customer’s responsibility to power the pedal with a 9V DC 2.1mm center negative tip adaptor that will not be provided by Fuzzrocious Pedals, LLC.

PAINT All handpainted pedals, unless otherwise specified are painted with enamel or acrylic paint by Shannon Ratajski. Some pedals are painted by the Ratajski children. Powdercoating and screenprinting for pedals sold through dealers and most FEED MEs you will see are done locally by Juxtaprints.

HUH? This is confusing stuff…20, 736 combinations would take a LIFETIME to sort though. Many will prove unusable; more will prove awesome! One way to “figure it out” is to just jump around the dials. The other way is to download this FREE program called the Duncan Tone Stack Calculator by Duncan Amps here: http://www.duncanamps.com/tsc/download.html (PC ONLY). By selecting “Big Muff” in the program, you can plug in the values we have provided and view the sweep of the tone stack. VIEW PAGES 2-9 TO SEE SUGGESTED SETTINGS TO GET STARTED!

Thank you to Nicholas Williams of Dunwich Amplification for adding the front-end buffer and PCB layout!
