distortion and self oscillation

2002-04-04 by spaceanimals

Sometimes I can get a good distortion with no effects on, but I'm not 
sure why. I can't do it every time-it seems more like luck of the 
draw. Also, sometimes I'm able to get the filter to self oscillate (I 
think) but again, I'm not sure why. On my old SIEL I just turned down 
the filter cutoff and turned up the resonance-instant self 
0scillation. Sometimes this works and sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes 
the amplitude feedback helps, sometimes it doesn't.Also, the 
amplitude feedback seems to have an optimum position depending on the 
patch-it doesn't just get more raucous as you turn it up. It reaches 
a sweet spot(or doesn't really do anything) then levels off. Why?
