I have indeed played a bit with the trimpots since the thing was not usable at all.
I managed to increase a tad the high end and to make it close to self-oscillate when turning all the way up the color knob.
Love the looks, the fact that runs on 9v but almost any flanger sounds better than this. The rate knob is almost unusable, just like it was with the last big DEM reissue.
What a shame of a product, EHX. I may have compromised the warranty of the product but I guess that this is how EHX wanted it to sound like.
The eleclady seems to be the way to go at this point, I am getting one tomorrow.
I agree on the complaint and I support the need of an explanation of what are the 4 trim pots functions so that we can tweak them and get what we expect, the flanger goes far too down but not so high. Also the rate know immediately rates fast.
Thanks
