It’s safe to say I have dirt covered but is there ever enough?

Happy to take some modulation recs, especially any fun/strange/unconventional ones. I’ve also been eyeing the DR boogie clone but seeing threads it’s not really close to the dual Rec red channel. Has anyone built the Bass Balls clone?
 
The Lowballer is cool, I've built a few of them- mostly with a few further tweaks. It's nice as an alternative to the more quack oriented filters, but it's very much it's own thing
The Duck Box is related (it's a tweaked Dr Q- the Bassballs is kinda like two Dr Qs in parallel) but does the quack thing admirably

The Minnow is a nice, aggressive envelope filter with a fun lil sample and hold mode that gives you random filter steps

The Nutty Fuzz is a simple sound destroyer that kinda has an enveloped wave folding filter thing going on, and has a nice "normal" fuzz blend

The Bit Captain is a raucous, lo-fi octave synth with a low parts count and a ton of sounds. Splatty power amp fuzz, searing Octavia tones, nasty squarewave suboctaves, and a nice filter to smooth the whole thing out

The Chalumeau is pretty neat in that it's a chorus /echo with the depth/ delay controlled by your picking dynamics. This one's also super simple, and the No-Fuzz mod is easy to implement

If you're a fan of tremolo, the Pendulum is an awesome harmonic trem that can almost cop some Univibe feel.
The Trembling loon is feature packed and can go from slow, smooth triangles to and throbbing, choppy squares with a ton of variety on between. It also allows you to further alter the LFO into ramps or wide and narrow pulses

The Cordyceps Ring Mod is a newer offering, and it's a fun and simple build. It doesn't do ethereal chimes and churchy bells like some cleaner ring mods, but what it does is a dirty squarewave ring mod, and it does it well

My absolute favorite modulations on the site are the Phase II and DuoPhase. They're a bit more intense, parts count wise but there is no better Phaser, in my opinion
