Hi
I built a Ge MK 2 Bender on a Mad Bean board. As you'd expect it's a great board to work with and better than other boards I've used in the past.
The thing that gets me is the circuit info called out for a reverse log 1K pot. The pedals sounds very nice, but the gain control only does stacks of fuzz and even more Fuzz.
I can't but help think the reverse taper pot is a typo and it should be a linear pot at very least.
What are your thoughts and experiences with the Tonebender MK 2?
Regards
Mark
I've built 5 mkIIs now and the reason the antilog taper pot is great with this circuit is most of the fuzz happened at the end of the range of the pot. It happens on a lot of fuzzes. The C taper stops the fuzz from getting bunched up in the last 30 percent of the rotation and let's you get more variation in the fuzz pot.
So you have tried the 1K Lin pot I assume, I found the C taper was pretty limited range wise. I will give the lin pot a try and see if that works for me.
