Organ Donor

My first FV1 soldering, ya my smd skills are kaputs, but it works! I used a small flat wedge bit to solder it, that was tons of fun... ordering a better tip for smd and esd safe tape

@jjjimi84 - (https://forum.pedalpcb.com/threads/organ-donor-build-report-and-demo.10955/) - Your demo is why I built it, love the star wars stuff. Glad I did cause it's a fun pedal. Sounds great with reverb/delay after it, distortion and/or ringmod before it.

You got that FV-1! I think maybe drilling 8 holes in the face of the enclosure was less fun.

I think it's a great pedal, don't have to make it sound like an organ, the octaves up n down are pretty good poly tracking. with up/down/choir around 2/3 chords are huge. up/down/chior maxed it very resonate feedbackish. The up after about 3 oclock starts an lil annoying chirpyness, but not too bad.
The lag control delays the processing of the notes, and after experimenting with reverb and delay after the pedal I found it's fun to use to make either the organ or up/down/chior dimed organfeedback swell after the unprocessed notes.
I don't think many ppl would add this to their pedal board, but its fun. It mixes well with other pedals before and after it, and the mix control can tame the organ/octave sounds.

To get the best big church organ sound out of it add a reverb or a short delay after it. jimmi84does a good demo there's a youtube link up top.
