    Before I turn the Aux on I have it at about 12:00 at the lowest. Maybe up to about 2:00.

    Edit: Would it make it easier if I recorded a sample of what I’m getting?

    Double edit: I stumbled upon something. If I start on any preset and tweak the distortion from there it’s fine, but if I turn the white knob so that all preset lights are off then toggle the auxiliary knob on from there is when it becomes unruly.

    Is it mandatory to have any of the presets selected first?

    not quite sure about the secondary functions blowing you through a wall [is the gain all the way up on the fuzz knob?]

    Well. What I mean by the blown through the wall is that I nearly crapped myself the first time I turned it on. The volume increased substantially. It also doesn’t seem to matter where the gain is. What I mean to say is apart from the volume knob I can’t tell a substantial difference in the sound no matter how I tweak any of the other knobs.

    It could be a simple case of me not knowing how to tweak it, but the LFO rate constantly sounds really fast regardless of where I put the rate, depth, or fuzz tone knobs.

    As of this writing the settings are as follows:

    Auxiliary on
    Volume: 7:00
    Tone: 7:00
    Gain: 9:00
    Rate: 9:00
    Depth: 9:00

    but the send and return are so you can send signal through devices like delays or reverb or distortion while still using the amplitude plugged into the input to determine filter triggering [so that they don’t get in the way of the filter but still get filtered, if that makes any sense].
    so here’s what to try
    plug the guitar into the input of the TM
    from the send jack, run a cable to another pedal’s input [preferrablty one that’ll do something to the sound, not a tuner or something]
    plug the other pedal’s output into the return jack
    plug the output of the pedal into your amp.

    best of luck,

    Ok. Much appreciation. Thanks a bunch.
