My 2 cents...
I've used Rick Holt's "delirium trémolo" and fuzz central "trémulus lune" with simetry mod, and this is what happends:



It's still a proto, so, it doesn't have any knobs anda stuff...
Rick: I've used your schem to share this in an Arg's DIY forum.

Cardinal Tremolo #1:


This is my prototype on perfboard of the IC-based version. I actually messed up a little -- my layout was two columns smaller. It still fits perfectly, though. Not completely sold on the chickenhead for the rate in this case, but it's usually the right call when it fits.

I'll film a demo of this version tonight. I'm very, very pleased with it.

This is "The Dez-RT" built for my buddy Mosno Al-Moseeki. Mosno is a fluffy Arab guy who plays what he calls "3rd World Rock" and is seriously THE nicest guy I've ever met. I mean he's just the biggest bundle of positive energy in any given room. Plus he's a fantastic singer. He's working on a concept album that borders on being a world-rock opera (it's got about 10 different local musicians on it for different characters' voices). I highly recommend checking him out: www.mosno.net

He used my Blue Warbler on this song that he recorded with my friend Joe Scala for FAWM

and pretty much had to have one. But then he told me he wanted three things in one, even though he had no idea what else he wanted. So I took a big box of pedals over and tried to find some stuff that meshed with his music. He liked the Blue Warbler and the Hamlet straight away. The Clipper Ship was a weird choice. I wasn't even pulling out any of the distortion pedals, but he asked what it was, played through it, and really liked it (even though he plays acoustic), so that completed the trifecta.



He's from Sudan, and he asked for the Sudanese flag on his. His website is actually banned in his native country now because he recorded a protest song against the current regime.

I spent a couple days fretting about the knob layout until I got this one, which leaves all nine controls within easy twiddling distance. I'm glad it worked out in the end.

There are some camels on the side. The anodized orange is a nice contrast from the colors on the top and looks very sandy.

here's my latest build, high gain distortion with boost

^ beautiful...

The image artifacts above the a in black makes it look (to me as a Swede) like "bläck metal" which would be "ink metal", given the number of metal subgenres I guess it either exists or will exist soon enough

Loving the finish on this dude!!! Nice one!

Were did half of the labels go?

^ Black magic! Now you see them, now you don't. 

[Perrow]

Were did half of the labels go?

I think the controls are in columns, so the three knobs on the top row has the same "labels" as the bottom row. But which controls go to which stomp switch? Makes me wish that the girl was a witch, which would lead to the question; "which switch is the witch switch?" (say that fast ten times).

Assuming both pics are the same pedal, one has a name per knob and one does not.
Think that's what he was commenting on. 

[jmwreck]

thanks everyone, about the label, I also wonder why the upper half of it disappeared, it's because of the post processing of the photo, the lighting is directly on top of the pedal making a shadow directly to the knobs, the bottom labels were not too dark because of the surface reflection, after I adjusted the brightness and contrast, the top labels were gone, I didn't notice until I posted it

Black magic, I'm telling you.

hahaha, the design actually is from the owner of the pedal, he initiated the whole idea of the black magic witchcraft layout
