The Drunk Beaver Disambiguation is a hybrid Rat/Big Muff - taking two of the most iconic distortion and fuzz pedals in rock and slamming them together for some gnarly sounds. The Disambiguation delivers a godly mid-hump and evokes the sound of a vintage Rat running full-tilt into a thick and raucous Red Army Big Muff.
The Rat-style gain stage uses a UD1408A op-amp manufactured in Kyiv; it's a Soviet-era clone of the famous LM308 chip found in the US-built Rat.
The two subsequent gain stages are based on the Russian Big Muff (using NOS Soviet KT3201EM transistors and KD521 diodes), while the tone stack is based on the Rams Head Muff, and Vitalii has used a JFET output stage for valve-like warmth and response.
Distortion - Affects amount of gain
Tone - Based on the "Ram's Head" Big Muff tone stack. Turn anti-clockwise for more bass; clockwise for more treble.
Volume - Effects the output level.
