Title: Doubt about Mudbunny versions
Post by: Lucas G. on August 22, 2014, 03:35:28 PM
I have a doubt about the mudbunny project, what version sounds more like the stock version of big muff ?

Best regards from Brasil!  ;D

There really isn't a "stock" version of the EHX Big Muff Pi.  Aside from all the historical variants, there are at least three "basic" Big Muffs available from Electro-Harmonix (Classic, Little and Nano) before you even get to the weirder versions they've released, and they each sound slightly different.

You can find details of most circuits here (http://www.bigmuffpage.com/Big_Muff_Pi_versions_schematics_part1.html), and a nice summary here (http://www.ehx.com/forums/viewthread/1600/).

If I may summarize the summary: Modern Big Muffs sound kinda like the NYC re-issue which sounds a bit like the Version 6, which sounds somewhat like the Version 3 which sounds pretty close to a Version 2.  Build a Violet Ram's Head and go nuts! ;)

turbin, personally I think the Triangle version is a good place to start.

Kit Rae's site is certainly worth studying too.

Thanks for your contribution my friend, I will test both options, trying to have the sound that I want, have just a little differences between them. :D
