It baffles me not to know what this pedal does internally, and I think it's better this way.
When you activate it, it sounds and serves as a booster, enhancer, exciter, parametric band eq, tone shaper, fixed wah, and filter.
There are many things happening at the same time in greater or lesser proportions and in a similar way to the Fuzz Factory the potentiometers seem to interact together, a small adjustment produces a significant and noticeable change.

“I’d never heard of Triskelion or the Harmonic Energizer pedal previously, but my co-producer, Chris Rakestraw assured me it would be good. He was wrong -** it was great!**”
Mentioned as a user on the official product page.
The Triskelion circuit is based on the uber-rare Systech Harmonic Energizer – this pedal was prized by several well-known artists, including Joe Walsh and Greg Lake. It’s most notable advocate was guitar legend Frank Zappa, who used the Systech for many of his throaty, mid-boosted Guitar tones.
It’s no surprise that Zappa’s son Dweezil relies on the Triskelion to replicate his father’s guitar sounds for the ongoing Zappa Plays Zappa project. In fact, Dweezil has been known to use three – yes, THREE – Triskelion’s in his live touring rig!
Welcome back to ProGuitarShop and ToneReport.com, today we're exploring the Triskelion 2.0, from TWA. The Triskelion is based on the legendary Systech Harmonic Energizer, with a slew of modern features. The original Harmonic Energizer is an ultra-powerful, analog filter device, but it had several problems, all of which have been addressed. The Triskelion adds several options not found on the original, such as the Energize footswitch, which completely bypasses the gain circuit and allows the pedal to be used like a traditional EQ and clean filter. The small switch to the right of the bypass switch controls the high pass filter for a wider range of effects. The expression pedal jack that overrides the Variant Mass knob (filter selector). Players can use the expression pedal for a crushing filter sweep that bottoms out at 155 hertz or as a traditional wah but with more harmonic energy. Other notable features include a modern/classic switch to roll off the low end, gain attenuation (-6dB) to avoid the clipping of the original design and EXP offset for expression pedal compatibility. The TWA Triskelion is a rock solid design, hand built in the USA and equipped with relay-based true-bypass S3 switching.
