Fairfield Circuitry 20% More

20% More is a Slew Limiting Distortion Pedal from Fairfield Circuitry, which uses a unique application of slew limiting circuits to craft characterful clipping and fuzz for any audio source. Slew limiters are often used in modular synthesizers to slow the rising and falling of control voltages. Applied to an audio signal, these relationships of voltage change create a distorting low pass filter, the character of which can be affected by the Slew control. Turn up the Feed knob to make the slew limiter resonate, adding triangle wave harmonics into your output sound as your input audio competes with the oscillation. An additional Blend control adds in a rough and raw squarewave signal to add more high harmonics, particularly useful for brightening up filtered audio at low Slew settings.

An internal envelope follower matches your input signal amplitude, and can be used to control Feed amount or the low pass gate at 20% More's output stage, creating dynamic timbral changes in response to your playing. Options for both sub octaves and full wave rectifier-based upper octaves are available for added thickness at high Blend settings, offering a wide tonal range from subtle breakup to massive saturated mayhem. In virtually any configuration, the input volume setting will dramatically change the fuzz response, enabling intuitive sound shaping. If your tone is feeling less-than, Fairfield Circuitry's 20% More provides a truly unique distortion that goes above and beyond to deliver on its central promise, bringing more tones, more experiments, and more fun to your music.
