Fuzz Destroyer

Terrarium + Daisy Seed · Mono

Stutter fuzz with feedback oscillation, wave folding, octave up, and sample crush. The momentary stutter footswitch is active even when the pedal is bypassed — useful for live tape-stop effects without committing to the fuzz character.

Knobs

Knob	Function
KNOB 1	Volume
KNOB 2	Drive (1× to 200× gain through the cascaded fuzz)
KNOB 3	Tone (post-fuzz LP filter)
KNOB 4	Stab (feedback oscillation amount — feeds delay line back into fuzz input for self-oscillation)
KNOB 5	Gate (noise gate threshold — handy because the high gain otherwise screams when you're not playing)
KNOB 6	Stutter speed

Switches

Switch	Function
SW1	Wave fold blend
SW2	Octave up
SW3	Sample crush (bit reduction)
SW4	Stutter shape (square / saw)

Footswitches

Switch	Action
FS1	Bypass toggle
FS2	Momentary stutter — works even when the pedal is bypassed

Usage tip: No-input drone: crank Stab (KNOB 4) past 50% and stop playing — the feedback loop self-oscillates into a sustained squeal. Shape the tail with Tone (KNOB 3) and set Drive (KNOB 2) to around 12 o'clock. Flip SW2 (octave up) for a screamier voice, or tap FS2 to chop the drone into rhythmic stutters.

WOOF v3 + Daisy Seed · Stereo · MIDI · Expression

Stutter fuzz with the WOOF extras. Self-oscillating feedback, octave up/down, wave fold + sample crush stacking, three stutter shapes, and a stutter-mode switch that turns the right footswitch from a hold-to-stutter into a tap-latch or always-on chopper. Stereo detune and MIDI-locked self-oscillation pitch round out the destruction.

Knobs

Knob	Function	Behavior
KNOB 1	Volume	Output level. Final clip is post-volume.
KNOB 2	Drive	1×–200× scaling. The cascade is harsh; even modest settings sound destroyed.
KNOB 3	Tone	OnePole low-pass. Crank for ice-pick, roll back for the wall.
KNOB 4	Stab	Feedback oscillation depth — drives a short delay loop fed back into the fuzz input. At >50% with no input the loop self-oscillates into a sustained squeal. With DIP_3 on, the squeal latches indefinitely; with MIDI Note On, the squeal pitch is locked to MIDI.
KNOB 5	Gate	Noise gate threshold for sputtery, velcro fuzz at high settings. At low settings the pedal hisses freely.
KNOB 6	Stutter Speed	Frequency of the stutter chopper when active.

3-Position Toggles

SW1 — Octave

CenterOff — straight fuzz, no octave generation. LeftOctave up — full-wave rectifier creating a harsh octave-up tone. RightOctave down (NEW) — comparator-divider flip-flops on every other zero crossing, producing a CMOS/OC-2-style square sub-octave that's envelope-tracked and ring-modulated with the input. Thicker low end, with the original fundamental still poking through.

SW2 — Stutter Shape

CenterSquare chop — hard amplitude gate, on/off click. LeftTriangle tremolo — smooth amplitude swell. RightRamp saw (NEW) — linear ramp 0→1 then snap to 0. Each stutter pulse has a "kick"-style envelope.

SW3 — Stutter Mode

CenterHold — original behavior. FS2 momentary; release = stutter off. LeftTap-latch — FS2 toggles stutter on/off. LED reflects state. RightAuto-on — stutter is always active when the pedal is engaged. FS2 momentarily disables stutter while held (a "kill" footswitch). Set-and-forget for live perpetual chopping.

DIP Switches

DIP 1 — Wave Fold

Carries over from Terrarium SW1. Wave-folder blended into the fuzz path, additive harmonics. Stacks with DIP_2.

DIP 2 — Sample Crush

Carries over from Terrarium SW3. Sample-rate decimator. Stacks with DIP_1 — together produces the "ultimate destruction" tone.

DIP 3 — Self-Osc Lock

When on AND Stab knob > 50%, the input contribution to the feedback loop is suppressed and the loop self-oscillates regardless of whether you're playing. Result: pedal becomes a no-input drone tool. Stab knob still controls depth, Tone shapes the tail. Combined with MIDI Note On, you can play melodies on the squeal.

DIP 4 — Stereo Detune

Per-channel modulated delay (~12 ms center) with sine LFOs at 0.30 Hz (L) and 0.42 Hz (R), depth ±1 ms, phases offset. Result is a Boss-CE-style stereo chorus spread on the fuzz output. Off: both channels mono-identical. On: lush, wide, almost shoegaze. Detune buffers stay updated even when off, so re-engaging is instant.

No-input drone patch: SW1 center, SW3 center (stutter hold mode), DIP_3 on, DIP_4 on. Stab to 70%, Tone to taste, Drive to ~12 o'clock. Don't play anything — pedal sustains its own squeal in stereo. Plug a MIDI keyboard, send Note On, and the squeal tracks the pitch.

Footswitches

Switch	Action	Behavior
FS1	Bypass	Toggle on FallingEdge. Stutter still works on the dry signal when bypassed.
FS2	Stutter	Behavior depends on SW3 (hold / tap-latch / auto-on).
FS1+FS2	0.5 s hold	Toggle Expression Set Mode.
FS1+FS2	2 s hold	Clear expression mappings.
FS1+FS2	at power-up	DFU bootloader.

MIDI

Message	Mapping
CC 14–19	Knobs 1–6 with takeover.
CC 20	Bypass toggle (≥ 64 = press).
CC 21	Stutter on/off (≥ 64 = active). Overrides FS2 state in any SW3 mode.
CC 22	Octave step. Each receive cycles: off → up → down → off. Only takes effect when SW1 is centered (physical switch wins).
Note On	Stab pitch lock. Self-oscillation frequency is forced to MIDI note (mtof). Note Off returns to natural self-oscillation. Wins over DIP_3 lock — can stack (locked drone singing the MIDI pitch).

Hothouse + Daisy Seed · Mono · 3-position toggles

Stutter fuzz on Hothouse hardware. 3-position toggles for octave (up/off/down), voice character (fold/clean/crush), and stutter shape (square/triangle/ramp). Mono. Footswitches reversed from Terrarium: FS1 holds for stutter, FS2 bypasses. Wave-fold and sample-crush stacking is dropped — pick one or neither.

Knobs

Knob	Function
KNOB 1	Volume
KNOB 2	Drive (1×–200×)
KNOB 3	Tone (LP filter)
KNOB 4	Stab (feedback oscillation depth)
KNOB 5	Gate (noise gate threshold)
KNOB 6	Stutter Speed

3-Position Toggles

TOGGLE 1 — Octave

UpOctave up. MiddleOff. DownOctave down — comparator-divider sub-octave, ring-modulated with input.

TOGGLE 2 — Voice

UpWave fold blended into fuzz path. MiddleClean — no fold, no crush. Straight cascaded fuzz. DownSample crush — sample-rate decimator on the fuzz output.

On Terrarium, fold and crush could stack. On Hothouse only one fits — exclusive selection.

TOGGLE 3 — Stutter Shape

UpSquare chop. MiddleTriangle tremolo. DownRamp saw — linear ramp then snap-to-zero.

Footswitches (Hothouse convention — reversed from Terrarium)

Switch	Action
FS1 (left)	Momentary stutter — works even when bypassed.
FS2 (right)	Bypass toggle.

Usage tip: No-input drone: set TOGGLE 1 to Middle (octave off), crank Stab (KNOB 4) past 50% and stop playing — the feedback loop self-oscillates into a sustained squeal. Shape the tail with Tone (KNOB 3) and set Drive (KNOB 2) to around 12 o'clock. Flip TOGGLE 1 up for a screamier voice, or hold FS1 (left) to chop the drone into rhythmic stutters.
