20% More: Slew Limiting Distortion

The Circuit That Shouldn’t Work (But Does)
Born from mysterious schematics of unknown origin, the 20% More is an alchemical distortion that transforms your signal through voltage-controlled chaos. Part oscillator, part wavefolder, all personality – this pedal explores the sonic territory where traditional distortion ends and experimental textures begin.

Core Innovations:
✔ Slew Rate Alchemy: Fixed voltage slopes create triangle-wave oscillations when pushed
✔ JFET Clipping Stages: From subtle saturation to harmonic explosion
✔ Dynamic Response: Input signals interact with the oscillation for pseudo-wavefolding
✔ Multi-Spectral Playground:
→ Sub-octave growls
→ Upper harmonic sparkle
→ Envelope-controlled filtering

Controls That Speak Volumes

• Slew: Sets the voltage change rate (clean tracking to chaotic stutter)

• Resonance: Excites the triangle-wave oscillation

• Fold: Adjusts wavefolding intensity

• Mix: Balances processed and dry signals

Technical Specs
▸ JFET-based signal path
▸ 9V DC (85mA draw)
▸ 4.7″ x 3.9″ x 1.5″ (compact pedalboard-friendly)
