WayHuge Swollen Pickle.
Controls
- Knob 1 - "Loudness": Volume. Fully clockwise is full volume.
- Knob 2 - "Filter": Tone control. Fully counter-clockwise has all the treble frequencies rolled off.
- Knob 3 - "Sustain": Fuzz or distortion level. Fully clockwise is full fuzz/distortion.
- MiniKnob 1 - "Scoop": An additional tone control. Setting this fully counter-clockwise sets the midrange frequencies scooped; fully counter-clockwise sets a flat frequency curve.
- MiniKnob 2 - "Crunch": This sets the level of compression in the fuzz.
- Footswitch 1 - "On/Off": Toggles the pedal on and off.
If the pedal is opened you will find the following additional internal controls on either side of the footswitch:
- Internal Knob 1 - "Clip": Sets the texture of the fuzz or distortion anywhere between "smooth" and "rough", with fully clockwise being maximum "rough".
- Internal Knob 2 - "Voice": Fully clockwise sets a very deep Scoop control, fully counter-clockwise is a shallow scoop.
General Information
This is Way Huge's (Jeorge Tripps) take on an Electro Harmonix Big Muff. However, as you can see, there is a whole lot more available with respect to tone shaping than any EHX Big Muff ever allowed. Way Huge considers the Swollen Pickle to be the flagship for their [[fuzz] tones, whereas the Fat Sandwich represents the Way Huge vision for a distortion pedal. Rounding out the selection are the Red Llama, Pork Loin, and Green Rhino, which for Way Huge, represent overdrive tones.

Phase Inversion
From our examination of the schematic below, the Swollen Pickle does not appear to invert phase on the output as compared with the signal that goes into the pedal.
Schematic ID | Electronic Part | Action | Phase State |
---|---|---|---|
Q1 | 2N3904 | Inverts | Inverted |
Q2 | 2N3904 | Inverts | Reverted |
Q3 | 2N3904 | Inverts | Inverted |
Q4 | 2N3904 | Inverts | Reverted |
This will need to be borne out by testing and observation.
