Modding a Devi Ever Soda Meiser

[Dollywitch]

The forums are dead but i'm not sure to ask.


Basically I have a Soda Meiser lying around and while it's a cool pedal for some sort of muffy sounds, it's a bit too synthy and lets almost none of the guitar character through even for a fuzz(and even with a Jag). I'd really like for it to do that as it would add some more complexity to the tone. It's basically like it's rolling off all the highs before it enters the pedal. While that's good for synth tones I'd like the option of having some more traditional fuzz sound in there too.



Would swapping out the Intensity Pot help, or one of the Resistors?

It's still too synthy with the intensity turned down?  If so, maybe making that pot larger...

The cap with the green "@" is providing negative feedback at high frequencies. Try smaller values (.01 or .001). Alternatively, you could put a resistor in series with that cap. You could even put a pot in series with that cap, so with the pot all the way down it works like it does now, but as you increase the resistance of the pot high frequency gain increases. A big enough pot/resistor might even get you the sounds of the "Chaos Mode."
