The 1.x version Devil Fish would go high at first, but subsequent accents gave a slightly lower filter frequency. There is a third mode like the original one, with a super slow slide up and down, so the filter frequency is still falling after the accents disappear. Only about four machines have this extra switch. It doesn't matter for the great majority of things which the machine can do. One thing I am really against is the idolisation of particular machines.
Some people just have to have the pure, original machine, so they can sound just like their heroes.
This is fetishism of a boring, narrowing kind. The instructions I have supplied have been perfectly adequate for exploring the many aspects of the Devil Fish - including areas which I have not got into yet. However the primary limitation on the number of Devil Fish mods has been my own inability to do them since April 94. I have also been writing about the communications revolution. I have run out of Devil Fish boards, and need to redesign them to include the new switch, to make the slide time trimpot a proper front panel pot, and to clean up various difficulties with the old boards.
