Title: Feb. Releases + new Giveaway board out
Post by: madbean on February 24, 2023, 05:39:36 PM
Finally these are ready after many weeks. Six pedal projects plus two new utilities (ProtorigJR and the Strober stereo prototyping board).
I'll have some short demos of some of these on Instagram starting at the beginning of next week.

I got my mistress order in, this one is a special build as a gift. Great job Brian, happy building everyone.

Put a link here or videos. I got no instagram.

Not gut shots? Rehoused behringers the lot of them.

Nice! I'm eager to get some flangery goodness going on!

Noticed for the new current lover R24 is labeled as a jumper in the schematic and 10k on the BOM— which is correct?

Also, would it be worthwhile hacking in the 2015 effects loop mod if I'm going to be building it into an XX enclosure anyway? Doesn't seem to be too much info from people who have built it with those mods to see if they found much benefit from it.

R24 looks to be 10k across all documentation. R42 is the jumper.

R42 is the jumper. I meant to add a note about that so I will go back and edit the doc. I also forgot to add a link I wanted in there (got pretty worn out by the time I got to the Current Lover). Anyway, some versions of the Mistress have a 10k in that spot and some don't. The link is to documentation showing all the differences in the classic versions of the Mistress.

For the loop, I only ever saw one or two people do it so I left it off. You could certainly put one in there. I think maybe doing as single TRS Marshall style jack might still fit in a 1590BB.

QuoteObiWon-Armon: "Have you ever heard the tragedy of Dark Foltune the Guy?"
Padawan Kokrain: "No."
ObiWon-Armon: "I thought not. It's not a story the pedalmakers would tell you. It's a DIY legend. Dark Foltune was a Dark Lord of Boutique, so powerful and so wise he could use the Fuzz to influence electrons to create tone... He had such a knowledge of cloning, he could even keep the pedals he copied from being exposed."
Padawan Kokrain: "He could actually save pedals from cloning?"
ObiWon-Armon: "The dark side of the Fuzz is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be... unnatural."
Padawan Kokrain: "What happened to him?"
ObiWon-Armon: "He became so powerful... the only thing he was afraid of was losing his power, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice exposed his dark cloning. Ironic. He could save pedals from being copied, but not himself."
Padawan Kokrain: "Is it possible to learn this power?"
ObiWon-Armon: "Not from DIY."

Exceedingly brilliant. Bravo 👏🏻

Nailing it with the graphics and a Guardian's enclosure classes up the lineup as well.  Superb!!!

TY. Yeah, Chris really came through with that enclosure! I'm doing more waterslide now, too. It's less labor than faceplates.

What are you clear coating your water slides with? I need to find something better.

Brilliant! I got myself a Skoolie and Current Lover, amongst others, for the back log.

I mean, I've run out of useless values of resistors and capacitors but why should that matter?

pfft. The quality still seems like it's not quite Card table... you need to up your game bud.

;)

In all seriousness, I think they're awesome looking projects. Getting a DMM into a 125B is really impressive actually.

Any plans for subsequent runs of Current Lover '23 boards? If so, is there an ETA?

I've already placed the the re-order for those. They should be here within the next two weeks.
