Pete Cornish CC-1

My new Crunch pedal, which has taken over a year to perfect, is now available to order.


The CC-1™ is not a variant of any existing product but a completely new and original design.


TWO CORNISH PEDALS TOTAL TO A CUSTOMER !! PLZ DO NOT EBAY FOR PROFIT !! THERE TO BE USED !!


The CC-1™ features two fixed low gain
Soft Clipping Stages preceded by a variable gain (maximum +22dB) linear
preamp to compensate for low output pickups and provide extra drive to
the soft clipping stages if required.


The advantage of using two low gain Soft Clipping Stages
rather than hard diode clipping is that they are effectively (and
automatically) removed from the audio path when the signal level drops
below their transition point - ensuring a complete “cleanup” if the
guitar volume is reduced. As the signal level increases due to stronger
playing the soft clips gradually engage and start to add harmonics -
more signal = more harmonics - but the loudness continues to increase as
there is no clamping of the signal peaks. Dynamics are therefore
preserved and superb musicality results.


Following on from the Soft Clipping Stages is a three
band active EQ using frequencies I have specifically tailored to suit
guitars. Being active, the three tone bands can be both cut and boosted
as desired with the zero or neutral point being 12 o'clock on each
control knob. I have included a second linear boost stage after the tone
circuit to compensate for any reduction in overall volume when the
tones are in "cut" mode.


The benefits of this active tone circuit, compared to
the usual passive (Cut only) tone circuit is that the three bands are
completely independent and there is no inter reaction between the Bass,
Middle and Treble tone controls.


An output Master Volume is included to allow for perfect
matching between bypassed and boosted/EQ’d signal level and there is
plenty of signal headroom available to overdrive amp inputs if required.


My well established Class A input buffer and radio
frequency suppressor is, of course, included and the output buffer
impedance is low; to easily drive long cables or other loads without
loss of signal or tone.


TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION


Overall boost with Gain = 100% and Volume = 100% is +34 dB


Overall boost with Gain = 0% and Volume = 100% is +12 dB


The above with Bass, Middle and Treble set to 50% (Neutral point).


Bass Control range +/- 13dB @ 70Hz


Mid Control range +/- 15dB @ 1.5KHz


Treble Control range +/-16dB @ 5KHz


Maximum signal output with Volume 100% is +10dBm/ 2.5vrms/6v Peak to Peak.


Power Supply: Internal 9vdc battery (Grey Series) plus
9vdc input on M2.1 tip negative connector. Recommended power supply
Voodoo Lab Pedal Power series.
