nothing wrong with calling a spade a spade

there was also a time when the divide between the asset class, and the have-nots depending on their next paycheck, wasn't so massive. many are not so fortunate to be as insulated against the radical changes and escalating costs as some of us may be. when it gets to a point where these things...

i've never understood why anyone would ever want use ribbon cables in a pedal build. (except mass production to save time/money) weak, flimsy, brittle pieces of shit. they're fugly as hell. and then if you lose continuity in a single conductor, you'd have to replace the whole thing. instead of...

just solder them direct to the board. they can take it. ⬇️ - use an electronic relay bypass instead of mechanical 3PDT - these bastards can 'mis-switch' when hitting it badly on the fly and then goes into some fucked position where it's neither bypass or active, and just makes a loud hum...

https://www.barberelectronics.com/gain_changer-d8z5c OD-1 based. keen to try.

well, it is a ghost echo.... so i had to go with a white theme 👻 yeah that makes sense. i guess when you're used to pristine plugins/rack gear, the jankyness of inferior devices is probably not that welcome.

thanks man 🤟🏻 i don’t really get the negative experience about belton bricks, yeah its no FV1 or DSP, but still makes a lot of fun and useable sounds, for me at least. maybe i just haven’t done enough FV-1… (still earnestly awaiting the arrival of the -in progress- Dispatch Master PCB)

ohh hell yeah cheers 🤙🏻 R4 is 10K per schematic/pcb. fuzzdog doc suggests trying 18K, so i’ve just gone and done that. yep, much better. volume is pretty much at unity.

so this reverb/delay circuit features a BTDR-2H belton brick + PT2399, and that sounded like a pretty good time to me, so i had to give it a try. turns out it’s actually a real treat to play. and with only 3-knobs [mix(depth), dwell, pre-delay/attack] it’s one of those things you can just...

idk but while trying to figure what this switch circuit is supposed to be doing, all i can hear is this song brilliant switching design tho, i'm definitely gonna have to come back here for it.

ayy thanks 🤟🏻 ah yeah true, i probably should’ve paid closer attention to that. that noise control is really handy too, cos it’s nice to have it up for cleans, and then turned down for fuzz/distortion.

this is probably one of the most unique sounding PT2399 delays i’ve tried. I guess a large part of what makes it stand out is the clever filtering design. IME, it allows this scenario where the repeats / oscillation can build up in a subtle way that feels like a nice warm blanket in the...

holy crap, i did not expect this. great work. way to persevere 💪
