OPERATIONS
Rufus features an easy to tweak control layout which includes: Fuzz, Level, Bass, Mid,
rotary controls and a three position Treble switch.
FUZZ: Adjusts the amount of Fuzz/Gain applied to your signal.
• At lower settings, (0 - 3) Rufus produces a thick, subtle break-up effect with
excellent top-end denition. This setting is ideal for pushing a clean amplier
into crunch territory and for playing a variety of Blues and Rock rhythm styles.
• At medium settings, (4 - 6) Rufus offers increased sustain and harmonics
with greater dynamic response when using your instrument's volume control.
Use this setting to dial in iconic tones of the late 60’s British Blues/Rock era.
• At higher settings (7 - 10), Rufus produces a cacophonous array of over
the top fuzz effects that are expressive and fun to play. Use these settings
to channel 60’s Psychedelic Blues, 70’s Classic Rock and 90’s Grunge-era
tones.
LEVEL: Adjusts the overall output level of Rufus. Use this control to compensate
between your amplier and Rufus when placed into your signal path.
BASS: Adjusts the amount of bass applied to the fuzz effect.
MID (Midrange)
: Adjusts the amount of midrange applied to the fuzz effect.
TREBLE SWITCH: This switch offers the following three position settings:
• Left - Cuts the amount of high frequencies for a warmer tone. Use this
position to dial in a smooth violin-like tone for solos or warm rhythm textures.
• Middle - Offers a atter more neutral response than those to the left or right,
allowing a broader range of midrange and treble frequencies to come through
for a classic 70’s fuzz effect.
• Right - Boosts the amount of high frequencies for more attack and bite. This
position is very effective when dialing in scooped, Grunge-era fuzz tones.
On/Off Effects Status Indicator: The LED indicator displays Rufus’ effect status, on/off.
TRUE BYPASS SWITCHING
Rufus employs True Bypass switching (via relay) which removes the effect from the signal
chain.
