Re: [Evolver] Modulate me distortion matey. Please. Please.

2003-01-28 by Crackpot

I agree with distortion modulation.  This distortion is sweet.
I wonder if Dave would share some of the details of how he did it?
It doesn't sound like a simple op-amp overdrive.  Maybe it's simply
good because it's in stereo and the slightly different oscillators,
through slightly different filters, make slightly different overdrives?
Maybe a transistor circuit, but it sounds pretty decent on my guitar!

I would love to put:
1) a nice, slow LFO on that distortion.
2) a fast, synced square wave LFO on that distortion.
