Intern
Pebble was originally a project I developed to have a pedal easy enough for my intern at the time to put together. So originally it was released as The Intern The effect is a single knob variant of Bit Pirate with a blend between between distortion and octave down square wave.
Later when developing the Triple Bypass idea with Analog Weapon I revisited this circuit because I wanted to see how tiny I could make a pedal. And thats how I made Pebble.
Intern User Guide
The pedal uses 9VDC power (2.1mm jack: center-negative).
Controls:
Footswitch: Effect Bypass.
Knob: The Intern has two different signal chains that you mix between with the big knob. All the way counterclockwise is a rather sharp fuzz/distortion and all the way clockwise is a monophonic octave down synth voice.
Mixing between these two signals to find your own personal sweet spot makes for some magical glitchy gnarly 8-bit sounding madness.
Trimpot: On the inside you will find a trimpot. This trimpot sets the volume for when the pedal is turned on. Tweak this if you find the pedal either to loud or if you wish it to be EVEN LOUDER.
