Sunday Funkday (Waddle, CDXL, Duck, Flyleaf)

[DGWVI]

Just finished these guys up today. First up is a LectricFX Flyleaf, clone of the EHX Zipper. Sounds great, uses a quad opamp and three jfets for the envelope detection. I'm still messing around with quads to see which response I like best- current faves are the TL074, LM2902, and MC33174. Stacking them also gives interesting results



Next up is the trio of PedalPCB's Waddle Box, CDXL Reissue, and Duck Box. Of the three, I think my fave is the Waddle, but the others sound great and bring the funk.
Didn't realize I was out of 125s, so I gotta place an order. And, I'm sure you can all imagine a black sand matte enclosure

Nicely done!

As someone whose autowah preferences change with the wind, I'd be interested in hearing your long-term impressions after they're boxed up.

So far, I'm finding the VFE Miniµ to be the most flexible. with the Meatsphere being the most frustrating due to having too many knobs with too many unusable settings. PedalPCB's duck box is on my radar.

Thanks for sharing!

I'll try to remember to update the thread once they're boxed.

As far as my current favorites go, I like the Minnow for it's extreme bandpass stuff, the Junk Trunk / 00Funk for low pass and synth stuff, and the Flyleaf / Zipper is growing on me.

My goal with building all these two knobbers at once was to find something that just gives me that funky quack so I can use my others for more synth sounding stuff. So far, I'm still preferring the Waddle Box over the other two, though I think all three sound great and, while similar, all definitely have their own thing going on.

The Duck Box is a lot of fun, but I need to embrace and mess with the blend switch a bit more
