DEMONFX FUZZ WORKS 7

Based on ZVEX EFFECTS Fuzz Factory 7

OVERVIEW:

The Fuzz Works 7 features a 9-position rotary sub

switch that opens the pedal up to an astounding

new bottom end as well as thin,reedy fuzzes.

The fuzz works equally well with both guitar and

bass signals.

There’s also a second stomp switch and an

associated tone control.This passive tone control

operates much the way the one on your guitar does

and when the stomp switch is activated it will let

you roll off the high end of the fuzz sound so you

can mellow out the tone if you like.

The controls of the Fuzz Works 7 are arranged in

a circle around a Lexan window that reveals two

rare germanium transistors, individually

hand-tested for the perfect gain range and low

leakage. These rare and magnificent-sounding

transistors are illuminated by LEDs when the pedal

is engaged.

CONTROLS:

KNOBS: Although the six main control knobs are

named for the parameters over which they seem to

have the most control.They are controls for various

operating levels and biases, and basically shape

you a personalized fuzz.

COMP:Adds attack characteristic when turned to

left, which gets softer to right, and suddenly

pinches tone when all the way right.Also use to

tune in fat feedbacky fuzz, if you’re that kind.

Lower the Stability and see what happens to this

control.

DRIVE:Increases distortion when used as a

“normal” fuzz, and adjusts feedback pitch and

tonal thickness, if you’re that kind. This control

becomes meaningless when Compress is all the

way right.



STAB: Use all the way right. Do not attempt to adjust

this control below 2:00, unless you like your fuzz

soft and squishy. Use to con-trol feedback pitch.

FAT: a nine-position

rotary switch that controls the internal tone of the

fuzz, getting fatter and subbier to the left and thinner

and reedier to the right. This switch will obviously

change the oscillation range of the pedal as well,

when the other knobs are set to an oscillating or

squealing tone.

TONE: This knob is activated by the left stomp

switch. It’s a pas-sive tone control that mellows out

the high end of the Fuzz Works7, like a simple

lo-pass filter.

VOLUME : Controls output volume.

GATE :Squelches noise after end of sustain. Turn

to right to elimi-nate squeals, hiss and buzz,

stopping just as they disappear, or use to tune in

exact feedback pitch, if you’re that kind. Turning to

left opens gate.


WARNING: Many “incorrect” settings on

this pedal squeal. This may annoy the

faint- hearted. If you use the example

settings, you won’t get hurt. We don’t

want to see anyone hurt. Don’t forget to

memorize or write down your favorite

settings.
