The Build Your Own Clone Armstrong Twin is the combination of two effects from Dan Armstrong created in the 1970s: The Orange Squeezer Compressor, and the Green Ringer Octave Generator.

Controls

  • Switch 1 - "Release": Compression release selector
  • Knob 1 - "Compressor Squish": Potentiometer increases the amount of compression
  • Knob 2 - "Function": Switches between the three modes, listed below:
    • Mode 1 - Orange Squeezer Compressor only
    • Mode 2 - Green Ringer Octave only
    • Mode 3 - Orange Squeezer and Green Ringer combined together
  • Footswitch 1 - "On/Off": This switch toggles the Armstrong Twin pedal on and off.

The Compression Release is a three-way switch at the very top of the pedal that toggles the release of the Orange Squeezer Compressor envelope between Slow, Fast, and Medium.
