Wow I cant wait to see the finished project. You even took the time to build your own boards. It makes my little projects look like my cat put them together. I do have a little project of my own going, its called   " The red / green box" I got the idea from the digitec gntx series wherin you are allowed to mix to amp sims together for a morphed version of the two. My hi gain channel is lxh marsh. sym [almost completed. I havent chosen my semi clean channel as of yet. I may even go to three syms. #1 mos boost #2 fender type {?} #3 marshal sym  > into mixing stages etc

Lol, im sure your little projects are good too. The boards are fairly easy to make as long as you have a laser printer, and the patience to drill that many holes. :icon_biggrin: You tend get faster and faster as you progress, and you work out the little tricks that help reduce the work time - which is good because Ive come to some of the biggest and toughest effects now >:( .

When you make that dual amp sim thing, try sending the outputs of the two sims to left and right stereo outputs, and plug headphones in. I heard this stereo effect through my computer speakers once and I was amazed how good it sounded. I dont know as anyone has tried it here yet, so you may yet uncover new territory! :icon_biggrin:

You dont know how close you are. As to that stereo thing I am planning that but then enters the power amp stage. I know some musicians friend [former big hair shreddars] that inform me that at that time they had been known to use those power amps [300 or 400 watt the type theyre using  now in cars etc. To power there speakers. They would send there stompbox or whatever there pre-amp multifx device was into the power amp. With very good results. I have tried that  myself. I inherritted my sons 400 watt accoustasonic power amp [powered it with a 12 volt motorcycle battery ] and plugged my rp-300 into it, wow ! it sounded good. Now that I ve told you all my secrets I am going to have to send the internet police out for you. :icon_wink: but I am planning on building the red/green box the stereo out thing > into the power amp> into left right speakers .... With mixing options all the way through, I am still brainstorming on this but its coming together.

So whatever happened with this? I'm very curious to see how it came out.

Dude! give us time! ;D

Yeah, don't worry, im not one to say im going to do something and then not do it. Ive nearly completed all the effects I want in it. The remaining ones are either not working or I havent ordered the special parts for them yet. University has kind of crippled me this semester. Ill probably have it done before university begins again next year.
Excluding the controller that is. The controller is the last thing ill start building.

I would add tube overdrive to the list, but the post modification rules have since been changed.

So, what ever happened with this? I was just looking through my old posts for another thread and noticed that you never posted in here again.
