What's on the workbench?

It's probably what you think it is, unless you think it's something other than what it is.

Shallowest water

I hope it comes with a matching faceplate

Built the full size EV and bought the full size SW. I want the mini format so bad..

What will I do with two EVs?!

 

[jimilee]

What would you do without two EVs?

God you’re right

 

[Robert]

Something like this.

Yep, that's pretty close. Everything is subject to change at this point.

 

[Hirti]

Something that I thought could be cool with these faceplates are two points at the 7AM and 5PM positions which would make lining up the knobs super easy (honestly it's probably the thing I hate most about building pedals )

EDIT: pot indicators is the word I was looking for

Cool so pretty much the cataclysm with a separately switchable modulation added in?

Yep. I haven't decided if I want to go 1590BB with modulation footswitch or 125B with a single footswitch.

How often would you want to turn on the modulation by footswitch?

Personally I think the bigger enclosure tradeoff just to get a footswitchable modulation is not worth it.

As it is I don’t know if this would make sense for me seeing as i have a cataclysm and a dark rift but if I didn’t have either I’d build this over the cataclysm for sure

 

[Robert]

It might actually replace the Cataclysm project since it's essentially the same thing with modulation.

Turn Depth all the way down and it's identical.

If it goes into a 125B there's no reason to keep both projects.

Definitely. Also now that I think about it, I rarely use the dark rift for all the crazy things it can do. This pedal might actually be a decent replacement for the two of them on my board. I’ll always keep the dark rift but for board space I like this

Assuming the modulation would instead be put on a toggle switch, it would be easy enough to wire up the modulation switch off-board for a footswitch if someone is so inclined. I vote 125B

 

[Robert]

It's a 6-knobber so a toggle switch would be a bit crowded, but not impossible.

I was thinking you could just turn down the depth to disable modulation... we'll see.

Now just a consarned minute!

Nah, it's more like 350ms maximum...

Opened up my Dracarys with the intentions of tracing it, or trying to anyway. It has a couple hundred parts, so I closed it back up. Too many to fit into a 125B, more than I want to try, anyway.

I traced it a few months ago, it's in line for a layout sometime in the near future.

Be careful if you aren't familiar with SMD film caps (it has quite a few). You can't accurately measure them in-circuit but they're plastic and will melt almost instantly if you hit them with the soldering iron.
