MadBean VFE BumbleBee Compressor

[Cybercow]

Another nice, tightly packed MadBean VFE build - a BumbleBee Compressor/Swell. Lotsa sweet control on this one.

That looks great. Yeah definitely a lotta controls inside and out it looks like! How's it stack up to other compressors?

Very nice! I will have to have a closer look at those.

Thanks! It compares well to other compressors I've built and used. It's very quiet mechanically and sonically.

Isn't this a slow gear type swell effect?

It is both a compressor and swell circuit. Combining each into one pedal is a nifty concept. I use it primarily as a compressor with long attack transients.

I have one of these I had printed from VFE's gerber files on my shelf of shame, need to get it working. Thanks for the inspiration, nice build!
