What's on the workbench?

It’s subtle, but I like the 308 better. It sounds less harsh and feels more spongy, for lack of a better term, especially with higher output pickups. I didn’t do a precise before/after, though, so it’s possible that I’m hearing things. Either way, though, this Rat’s going to be a daily driver for me.

That's what I found too. Highs are slightly rolled off and give a sweeter, smoother sound overall. Note decay seems to have a softer knee too.

It otherwise looks really nice!

I think it’s a cartoon reference or something

What’s interesting is in bass world it keeps being described as unique synthy distortion with only the prunes and custard or SA wave folding distortion getting close.
He stopped building for a while and the prices went utterly mental and even what he makes now is price gouged by flippers.

How unique is it? Who knows? (Till Robert opens it up at least)

Just get a Future Impact...
 
plus half the fun of pedals is building them yourself isnt' it? Is this not why you are here? Are you not entertained?

I had a SA C4 synth - it made my head hurt.
Borrowing a SA Artifakt and will see if that can scratch the same itch in a more user friendly way...

Future impact has enough features for a million migraines but it's soooo much fun. It's basically a full featured virtual synth once you hook up usb and load the editor. The latest (V4?) is going to an app based system allowing the dev to have fully different programs available for it. I don't get why they aren't huge. 100s of synth sounds and a full featured editor, for ~$230.

The C4 synth is similar but different - my issue is I’m on a journey from zoom multifx to hx stomp and then very much enjoying individual effects, mostly analogue - I stare at screens all day for work - there’s a bit of me that doesn’t want to do that when I’m not working.
Having said that I don’t actually believe it and at some point would love to try a FI4 - I saw a video clip where quatschmacher was using the midi detector out to drive other synths too!

AND the FI includes the Unibass algos (add an octave above, add a 5th above or a 4th below the octave ...)
AND a tuner.

and tap-tempo ...

FI gets rid of so much clutter on the board. It boggles my mind why the little Pandas aren't more popular.






NEVER been interested in the C4, even before I got my Panda FI.
 
The Doom 2 is just an analog fuzz, it might crush the bass down to a square wave but it doesn't do any of that fancy synth filter stuff...
