description:
a boost with two modes, one dirty (05) with +35db of boost, and one clean (25) with +25db of boost.
i would not say that the 0525 is a treble boost, but it definitely adds sparkle.
works well with bass, guitar, vocals, synths, drums, and anything else you can run through it.
controls:
volume knob : lots of gain on tap, even more when in 05 mode
control knob : adds more dirt when in 05 mode, adds more boost in 25 mone
0525 flip switch : toggles between 25 clean boost and 05 dirty boost
specifications:
true bypass
mxr sized enclosure
boutique quality components
incredibly low ma draw
silicon transistor based
9 volt, 2.1 mm, negative tip power jack
9 volt battery snap inside (unscrew the back plate)

dirty cousins by lowwoods
05 with the bass brings out some interesting highs i haven't been able to achieve. 25 is perty and a great foundation effect. 05 is so dirty that i need to take a baff.

it's starting to get cold outside so warm up with some tubes. while you're at it bring your 05/25 and it'll add an "eleven" to your amp (but bring the fire extinguisher just in case).

stereophonic by lowwoods
stereophonic is the 05/25's ode to signal processing. you know it's a great foundation effect when it's a great stand-alone effect.
