    GPT-5 Circuit Analysis

    @thomasbe86 Note my location and a certain company nearby that's essential for LMMs, and semi-conductors in general. Being part of that company, and being force-fed how great "AI" is, because the hype needs to go on, you could say I get triggered easily. It's quite hard for me to not get...

    For sure! :) I was just pointing out the implications of using such tools.

    True peak limiting PCBs?

    There's plenty of neat compressors, but I don't seem to find anything that clearly states to be a fast attacking / high ratio limiter; something I would feel comfortable putting behind some gear (Filterbank, T-Resonator, AeganMatrix, etc) that comes with warnings that they should be used with...

    GPT-5 Circuit Analysis

    Isn't this exactly why it's such a horrible tool? That you have to ask other humans how well your barebones effort / high output did?

    DEMO AionFX Polyphemus (Pigtronix Philosophers Tone) - Demo Added

    From the retrace journal of this pedal... "But, there is one key difference: R19, the 6k8 resistor from the original trace, is 68k in the Micro. This resistor sets the gain ratio of the wet signal in the op-amp stage, and higher resistance means a higher signal level. So in this case the...

    "STORM" Closed Circuit Booster Limiter

    So, this unit functions are a pure limiter as well? Was looking around for a simple no nonsense peak limiter, but no dedicated units seem to exist. Usually you get it as some sort of bonus with a compressor, which I don't need.

    Hammered light blue paint for enclosure?

    Aluminum needs a bit of extra care when painting it! This stuff basically wraps your enclosure up in hard plastic!:)

    Hammered light blue paint for enclosure?

    Yeah. Since Reeves released a blue version of a varation of this pedal earlier this year, don't get stuck on an overpriced discontinued can. I found Motip 04011. A Dutch example. Pretty sure other EU members have their own industrial / automotive brand to cover this color. Excellent German...

    Boutique Pedal Manufacturers Are Feeling the Tariff Pinch

    Heh, kinda like with cancer, you know. There's those who get it that you feel for, and others who you cannot even care the slightest for. Because in the end, it's not just good people who suffer. There's also the bad people. And it makes life a little bit more beautiful.

    Need a pedal idea for a specific enclosure

    What JTEX said. With the huge warning / electric fence label, I'd make sure the warning is actually for real. Like having huge electrolytics that give you a blast when you touch it funny. So yeah, cram a fine Class D inside (icepower or something) and turn it into a standalone power amp for...

    There's genres where pedals are the main instrument. :)

    Nah, this is the only brand I feel deserving of a completionist approach. :) These pedals do not tend to be used on pedalboards, but on tables for live performance. Sidejacks just make way more sense in my scene. Every show, a new chain. I dislike top jacks. :)

    2009-2025. Complete! Well, except for the discontinued Steroid OD. And some less interesting limited production things that I might grab from DeadEnd at some point

    Varna Sankar: "...is caused when the children were not wanted by their parents and grow up to be a nuisance in the world." That last bit makes it a badge of honor, actually. Why else make music, among other annoying traits? 😅 "For example, if a child is born to a couple who has predominantly...
