Hi Brach,
Thank you for your timely replies!
I turned the Depth to 0 and I’ve been turning the Hi and Lo trimpots.
I can’t seem to get the sound of the pedal close to the bypassed sound.
The trimpots don’t seem to be affecting the freqs I want.
So I plugged the pedal into Logic Pro to look at an RTA and strummed my Strat (w/Lace Holy Grail passive pickups).
It looks like the pedal has a bump around 200-500hz and a big rolloff above 2.5k.
The sound is kinda like an impedance mis-match ‘loading’ situation. Could it be?
I’ll dig up a pedal with a buffer and try putting it in line before the Quaverato.

Also, I lost one of the 1uF Ceramic Capacitor (which of course made me nuts) so I got one from a local electronic store labeled 104k. Its slightly bigger in physical size but it fit no prob. The replacement is in the C16 slot next to the HPF dip switches. Could this be having to do with the freq response?

I’m ok with this pedal and intend to use it but I’d like to get the effect sound closer to the bypassed sound.
Thank You
