Non-Human Audio Kimchi - (Textural Fuzz Drive) "Free Shipping in the USA"

From Non-Human Audio:

Somewhere in mid 2024 I had an idea.

For all the schematics I have looked at over the years and all the ways I have seen people create distortion in circuits there was a method involved with transistor biasing (and thus potential fuzz level) that I’d never actually seen someone make adjustable. Why weren’t people doing that? Did it not work? Did it sound bad? I wanted to dig in and figure it out.

Turns out it not only worked but it sounded really cool and pretty unique, ranging from clangy and bitey overdrive all the way to an zippery and compressed fuzz, while maintaining a surprising amount of clarity along the way. So I designed the Kimchi around this idea and range of sounds.

Some settings will feel natural and chewy, some settings will feel beefy with aggressive high end, some settings will feel squishier with single notes but more open with chords.

Explore, have fun.
