What size enclosure is that? I'm building something similar (although less complex) for a buddy of mine. It will be <insert some delay> + Gravitation reverb. Maybe a Magnetron but I'm waiting to build out my DMD-2 to see if that might work better.So this was something I have been meaning to get around to for a while, sooo many issues I ran into, broken wires, tight fit, ideas that flat out didn’t work, but I sorted everything out on the fly and it turned out good enough. I could go back and change a few things but I’m l kind of over messing with this one.
With the order switch the LEDs change color indicating what is first in the chain (blue first red second) so I could utilize the internal modulation algorithms on the Fv-1 of the spatialist, (I like modulation before delay) they are useable but not really anything that gets me excited. The oscillation mod on a 3pdt momentary through a dual gang 50k trimmed down to 25k (a 5k or 10k would have been the way to go) controls the speed and swell of the Hydra, you really need to have 2 heads running for it to ramp up nicely , a little noisy on engagement but the release is pretty epic… cool circuits , a lot of work to put them in one enclosure like this. Probably won’t do that again. Didn’t really turn out how I was wanting but not bad, soooo many knobs and switches so I dubbed it the Esotera. Umm yeah I’m even over writing about it.. but it’s cool I’ll keep it.

Edit: Phenomenal looking build man! How does it sound?
