Overview
The 2024 version of the Kingmaker has no circuit changes and minor layout adjustments.
The Pearl FG-01 was a lesser known contemporary of some of the 1980’s compact flanger pedals like the Boss BF-2 or DOD FX-75. Design-wise it is familiar and you will find similar circuit blocks used in the BF-2 and the MXR.
The FG-01 utilized the MN3207/MN3102 BBD/Clock pair. The Kingmaker project allows you to use
the original chips or the MN3007/MN3101.
Controls
• RATE: Modulation speed.
• MANUAL: The MANUAL control has some effect on most DEPTH settings. With the DEPTH full CCW, the MANUAL control produces ringmod tones. As DEPTH is turned up the MANUAL control will change the center frequency of the flanger in its normal operation.
• DEPTH: Modulation intensity.
• FDBK: Modulation feedback amount.
• BIAS: This trimmer sets the voltage input bias of the BBD.
• T1: This trimmer sets the frequency range of the clock.
• T2: This trimmer sets the max DEPTH setting.
• T3: This trimmer sets the maximum amount of audio signal that is fed back through the circuit.
