The Dunsh is an original design that features a ‘bells and whistles’ form of that original transistor gain stage from the Gett/ Canny Fettle Boost sandwiched between a few op amp stages for filtering, gain and EQ.
amp smashing fuzz-stortion with gating and EQ options.
I’m still trying to find the right description, because it covers a lot of ground, but it’s a super flexible and wide-ranging gain stage with a lot of EQ options.
It goes from clean boost to distortion, with stupid amounts of output.
It has some broad spanning EQ options
It has two controls for gating.
It has a second footswitch for the namesake ‘dunsh’ sound to step it up a notch. The Dunsh does not operate independently. It is an internal boost to one section of the circuit.
The controls are
gain – gain.
bias – bias for that core transistor stage. As you turn it clockwise it will start to choke out. The more gain you add, the harder you have to push it to gate out. ALSO! When you’re all high gainy, you’ll notice as you turn it, you’ll hit a point where it acts as a noise gate. The noise floor will kindly vanish, which is handy and nice.
B and T – B stands for bottom. T stands for top.
This is the EQ section. There are two knobs and two 3-way switches. At noon the knobs aren’t doing anything. Turn clockwise to boost, anticlockwise to cut. B boosts or cuts bottom end, T cuts or boosts top end.
The B and T switches (directly below the knobs) are marked with lo, hi and mid for the three positions. This is where the corresponding knob boosts or cuts from.
These controls cover a lot of ground. I will be writing a lot more about these later, because as you can see from the confusing graph showing all the possibilities below, it’s a lot. But don’t worry, we’ll break it all down for you in an article before release.
