Let's start with an old school tremolo, I really like the way this think works.






Next is an EQD Hummingbird






]

Then, we'll go to an Ultra 78





Then we have an EQD White Light



Pedal building is like the opposite of sex.  All the fun stuff happens before you get in the box.

Thank you sir. After I saw the demo, I was fascinated by its ability to slow down as the notes rang out.

Sweet builds jimilee.  Triple DIY points for etched boards.

Damn that Old School is too slick.  I love my build but yours adds a big scoop of cool graphics.

How loud is too loud?  What?

Everything looks great, but that Old School looks even more so!

High praise from Madbean himself . I feel  most honored, thank you! I can work some photoshop just enough to be dangerous.

Great work, Jimi! I dig the graphic for the White Light, and you can't go wrong with a Trans-Am. That Old School look is killing it!

What's more ultra 78 than the trans-am firebird?

+100 on the graphics man.
How do you apply your graphics to the enclosure, if that's not a rude question? I have had some success with water slide decals, but would like to explore other options. For me, the graphics are half the fun of a build.
Also, did you design the circuit for the Old School, or is it modeled/modded from another pedal. I would like to try my hand next at a tremolo.
TIA

Hey hey, thank you. I use water slide decals and cover them with enviro tex. The circuit itself is a VFE circuit that Brian sells in the store. It's a wicked cool circuit. You can set it to helicopter slow dissolve as the note resolves or the reverse of that. I think it's pretty awesome, While waiting on parts for it, I decided to build the hummingbird, which is an EQD pedal, obviously. You need to grab one.
