Fuzz/Crush
Fuzz
The name Fuzz box refers to the fuzzy sounds it generates. The genu-
ine sound comes from a distorted transistor amplification that cuts the
waveform’s peaks and changes them towards a square wave. If you’re
not after the natural drive of your solid state amp, give this one a try.
The fuzz box is standard issue for modern Heavy and Industrial music.
Proceed as follows to set up the Fuzz box:
1. Turn the Drive knob to the right to increase distortion.
2. Turning the Tone knob towards the left produces a softer sound.
Turning it to the right produces a brighter, thinner sound.
3. Use the Envelope control to make the amount of Drive depend on the
signal level, so the attack phase of a signal is more fuzzy than the sus-
tain phase.
