About Red Witch Famulus Guitar Distortion Pedal

Red Witch Famulus Guitar Distortion Pedal by Sam Ash - Servant to the Sorcerer"Alchemy is a bridge between Earth and Heaven, matter and spirit, the solid and the fluid, the visible and the invisible, bringing the horizontal and the vertical together." J. Ramsay.The Famulus is a distortionoverdrive pedal with two totally separate, parallel circuits inside. Each circuit has its own distinct voicing. You are able to blend between the two for any conceivable combination.VolumeControls the overall output of the device the output of both circuits are controlled in parallel by this control.ToneThis is more like a presence control than a tone dont ask they didnt call it presence and like the volume dial both circuits run through it a parallel tone control! Presence control Be quiet man you told them it was a tone control. Ans tt works backwards, by the way.Gain A This sets the distortionOD level of the first circuit its a really biting, crunchy sound with masses of dynamic scope set it really low and the guitar sounds almost clean, wind it fully clockwise and youre suddenly moved to uncontrollable head banging, power chording, 8th note chugging, metal. Yessssssssssss....!Gain BThis sets the distortion OD level of the second circuit. This one is bitey too but it has a mid range punch and spank. Like its brother, Gain B can clean up and then get down and dirty when turned clockwise.AlchemyThis is where things get rather interesting. The alchemy control enables you to blend between to the two separate circuits Fully anticlockwise gives you only Gain A, fully clockwise gives you only Gain B. Set it anywhere in between and you are now creating your own unique combination. Now try this set Gain A to a really clean setting around 7 oclock, then set Gain B to a dirtier setting, round 12 oclcock, now set the Alchemy control fully counter clockwise. Now play youll just hear the clean sound of Gain A. Now gradually wind the Alchemy control around clockwise to say 9 oclock LISTEN! Clean and dirt
