great results, voltage starving Joyo Ultimate Drive!

[Erlend_G]

So, yesterday I got bored- and hooked my Joyo Ultimate Drive up to a selectable voltage adaptor.

At 7,5v, it was cleaner; at 6 volts I got a great semi-clean, breakup sound. Lastly, I tried 4,5 volts, and it's GREAT!

a juicy crunch, with a touch of...fuzz. . I forgot to see if it would run at 3 volts (last setting), but I'll give it a shot later.

Sorry for no clips, still working with renovating my apartment.


But this trick made the pedal, which I didn't like "stock", into a versatile and nice soundng unit! I wonder what happens if I try the same with my EHX Octavix fuzz..!

have a good one,

Interesting! I was under the impression that gain pedals get more compressed and saggy as the voltage goes down but it sounds like you got the opposite with this pedal. Rock on...
