Module8. Anybody built one?

[BuddytheReow]

I've got my eye on some modulation boards and the Module8 seems like a "jack of all trades, master of none". Anybody built one and can comment on the toanz?

 

[BuddytheReow]

Sounds like nobody's got one of these. I guess this one may go up the build list to find out one way or the other.

I am a bit curious. Another cool thing is for 8 more sounds, pop in the octagon EEPROM.

It would be cool to have a bank switch to switch between two eeproms

I always get side tracked and forget about the module 8 algos but still curious as to how they sound

You mean something like this?

Thread 'Paracitic Terraformer (PPCB arachnid)'

This Arachnid project is the culmination of a lot of learning various programs and processes.



For starters check out Butt stuff, a dual EEPROM pcb I still have one or two if someone wants one…. Maybe you want to make your own butt stuff so here’s the files!…

fv-1 dual eeprom_gerber.zip

you are welcome!

it could use some revisions like slightly larger pads would be good. But it is useable as is and confirmed multiple times.

Ok let’s get down to brass tacks, what is the Paracitic terraformer? A...

I have a few extra boards laying around that do exactly this. I can't remember who here created the boards, but they shared the files and I got some from jlcpcb.

Add one of the boards to my Arachnid so I can switch between 2 eeproms

I did a bit of searching. Looks like maybe the Butt Stuff?

And how could I forget a name like that? Always making sure credit is given, especially when it's something as cool as this, @Paradox916 is the mastermind of this super awesome/useful board.

@jcpst if you want a board for an fv-1 project, I can dig one out for you. There's no way I'd every use all 5 that I had printed.

 

[jcpst]

Haha oh wow I did not see your post @Paradox916 ! I must have not refreshed while searching/typing.

@DeadAirMD , I am down! I would enjoy having an octagon+mod8 in one box.

I built one forever ago, it's fine. Jack of all trades, master of none is a pretty accurate description.

So I'm still a NOOB. Do you have access to all these algorithms at the same time or is it a pick one to use and build another pedal? Still trying to learn. Thanks!

From the build doc. There are 8 preloaded ones. Select one at a time.

To further clarify BtR's post, with the Module8 you have access to 8 algos in a single pedal, but only one can be used at a time.
You don't need to build a second pedal.

If, say, mid song you need to switch out from Flanger to RingMod, you'd have to reach down, turn the dial from Flanger to RingMod — you don't need to build a Flanger-Module8 pedal and a separate RingMod-Module8.


Also, if you prefer, you can order the "Arachnid" and select which 8 specific algorithms you want (for example, you could replace the two Tremolos of the Module8 for a reverb and a delay — Module8 is simply a pre-selected EEPROM used on the Arachnid platform).

You'll find a complete list of algos in the EEPROM BUILDER section of the store.


Took me a while to wrap my brain around all the FV-1 stuff offered by PedalPCB (*and other DIY resources).

Thabks for the insight! Having a blast learning about it all.
