I only started using the rhythm setting recently and love it! I use it for slightly more overdriven sounds. I find that it doesn't just darken the sound it also fattens it up a bit. Does anyone know if that is electronically what happens with lower pot values?

Yeah, that's a good question. My output seems hotter on the rhythm circuit. What sorcery is this?

I use the Rhythm Circuit to warm up fuzzes that don't have a TONE control (ex.: FUZZbrite).
I can quickly switch to and from a dark tone similar to Switch Position #3 on an Esquire.
It seems some tuner pedals work faster without extra overtones.
With the VOLUME control way down I can use it as an intentional kill switch.
Depending on the amp and the mix of other instruments it can be used a rhythm guitar tone preset.
