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 controls:

  • 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.

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.
