Distortion
Aggravate
Aggravate is an Octave fuzz inspired by famous classic analog octave fuzzes from the 70’s. This algorithm
will satisfy all your Fuzz needs with its versatile controls, rich feature set and most importantly, its chewy
tone that makes playing through it addicting!
Mix: The clean/dirty mix, full left is clean, full right is dirty.
Fuzz: The amount of fuzz.
Octave: Enables or disables the analog-style octave effect
Thick: Makes the fuzz thick (or thicker).
Mids: Midrange control for the stage. -100 to 0 removes midrange for a more scooped sound. 0 to
100 adds midrange.
Tone: -100 to 0 rolls off the treble creating a bassier tone. 0 to 100 brightens the effect.
Bias: Increasing this control will add a “spitty” characteristic to your tone.
Filter Env: Controls the sensitivity of the filter envelope follower. Negative values will start at a
high cutoff frequency and move lower as you play; positive values will start at a low cutoff
frequency and move higher as you play. At 0 there will be no filtering.
Env Shape: Shape of the enveloper filter. Exponential is suggested for guitar, while Linear is
suggested for bass.
Resonance: Controls the resonance of the filter.
Pump Depth: Controls the ratio of the pumping compressor. Increasing this will make the pumping
effect more pronounced.
Pump Control: Sets what the pump is controlled by. Pump Rate uses the included LFO, manual lets
you control the Pump as a performance control.
Pump Rate: Adjusts the speed of the pump rate from .50 - 5 Hz. Higher pump rates work better
with shorter release times.
Release: Release time of the pump effect.
Performance Parameters
Pump: Manually triggers the Pump effect. Only works when Pump Control is set to Manual.
Retrig: Retriggers the LFO of Pump Rate.
