I buyed this pedal 3 weeks ago and couldn't wait to modifie her.
at first, this is a very very good pedal for dub because it has THE sound and a possibility to move manualy the freq of the phaser like a band pass filter. Two crucial dub effects in one pedal. the problem is that the switch LFO/Manual is behind the pedal and the manual has no use when LFO is on! it's a shame!
BUT... with this trick the two are connected and you can change the center freq of the phaser and have a kind of enveloppe follower reactions depending on the positions of the pots. You can switch off this mod too and keep the original Bad stone controls...
For now the unique bad thing with the bad stone is the reaction on HiHats, it doesn't work like it should be! but maybe it's a bad capacitor because HHats are going out of the phaser spectrum with a bad distortion when feedback is at 100% and the LFO is at his high limits....beurk... any owner has this problem too?
here is the mod, nothing more easy than this:
i tried with a 500K vintage pot but didn't try other values for now. i got to practice with it to understand the reactions of the pedal and maybe i'll know if a lower or higher value pot is better than the actual 500K.
Peace and mods (and dub!)
