Great pedal, but lots of tweakability. I had mike build me one with offset pots so I could mark down presets.

yeah, i need to get some paint or bits of tape or something. I've just been taking pictures of the pedal to "save" settings. I think it's actually gonna be my main dirty tone now.

Yeah, that's what I do too. I have so many pictures of my Memory Man with Hazarai. I also set up my phone so that all photos automatically upload to Dropbox. Just in case my phone breaks or gets stolen, all of my delay settings are saved in the cloud.

I'm kinda surprised Zvex hasn't made one with digital controls to save these millions of settings contained within.

But then again.. y'know- GUITARISTS.

Digital effects dont have the m0j0. Making it digital would probably take a bit out of the unpredictability factor though.

I have a note book specific for effects settings , draw circles roughly matching your pedals knobs and mark ,

I also own the fat fuzz factory and fuzz factory 7

The fat is so sweet with the 3 sub octave switch but the 7 gets even more sub it's crazy drastic differences between the sounds of both pedals

I have a plan in my mind to upgrade my DSI Evolver to a Pro 2 and wire up some Dwarcraft eurorack modules with footswitches and then use the sequencer and the CV outs on the Pro 2 to control the settings.

Which is kind of similar.
