octave up sick box not expected to survive the nite :(

rob, you got the switch right. i don't think it matters which side you lift.

this is a hellacious unit. it has some pretty severe sustain characteristics, too, and is completely sensitive to pick attack and knob twiddling.

i didn't add the switch, cuz i didn't have room...i squashed this with two full-size pots, one of them blue switches and two open frame jacks into one of them tiny single button fender footswitches. 



there's really no more room in this box!! but i'm digging it, i made a compressor (mictester's really cheap compressor from the forbidden place) in another one, and they're so small, i can fit both on my live board in the space
taken up by my tc polytune pedal (which i don't really care for...it's really only useful for guitars with floyds imho)

you should be able to find clips on youtube. i'll do a demo when i get a chance, may be a couple days.

okey dokey no worries man..

Brilliant!...i must hear this!!!!!..its right up my street...especially chords too..amazing!..

ive already designed my box for it ready!...

[pinkjimiphoton]

well, diads/power chords. depends on your guitar's setting.

i LIKE playing rhythm with this thing on...sounds a little like an electric 12 string patch on a keyboard, sorta kinda..
the tracking is insane with this, way better than even the mayer octavia i had years ago.

[deadastronaut]

cool, might be cool with a blend on it too...

[pinkjimiphoton]

i think mark hammer has a mod for that, i swear i saw it on a thread when i was looking for a different vero and to find debugging info. try the search function?

this thing sounded REALLY good into that trumpet fuzz thing i built a couple days a go (boss t bone)...you can get slow attacks, filter sweeps of distortion, change the balance point and speed of the slow swells..

sick, sick, sick!! that into my cheezy 2399 delay was eargasmic last nite.. i think you'll be impressed bro.

Hmmmm interesting blend ideas by john and ian...

[pinkjimiphoton]

Hopefully no smoke!

I keep saying that I'm going to add a diode for reverse polarity protection to all of my builds, but for some reason, I never do.

You have one extra connection at the "bottom right" of the 100k one diode is bypassed with a conductor.  You might want to blend and switch out the same diode/33K side.
An antipop pulldown resistor should be used at the input 2.2meg etc.



Look for the Foxx Tone Machine schematic and look at what is similar.

gus...check your pm inbox bro...video demo posted!
