Dead Astronaut FX Chasm Reverb

[Jakes Dad]

This one has been on my board and on for several months.  Fired right up first time with no issues at all.  Goes from pretty good reverb all the way past 'What the ...?" - love this one so much it sat for eight or nine months as a bare box with all the pencil marks from drilling on it.  Added graphics today with toner transfer and craft stamps plus several coast of satin clear.  Oh, tried the metal polish trick on this one but the box is a no name cheapo so it didn't clean up as well.

And the guts:

Looking at the gut shot I noticed the untrimmed LED legs so I took care of that before it went back on the board - I really expected to tear this thing apart a couple of times before it worked.

The artwork is awesome. I'm with you on this effect, I love mine. I use mine for soundscape stuff all the time. Sadly, mine came off my board when I got my Strymon Big Sky but mainly due to space. I used it with my Rhodes piano not that long ago and it sounds great on keys.

Hey not sure if anyone is still active on this thread. I'm putting this pedal together and am a pretty novice pedal builder. Got the switch wiring diagram but wondered if another builder might have a full wiring diagram or detailed gut shot as I'm a little lost getting this wired up. Thanks

Take a look at Deadastronaut's website for a build doc. The last page has the offboard wiring.

If you can not figure it out from the build doc, I suggest making a new thread in the Tech Help section.
Take a look at this thread for help on how to post for help.

Very cool. The artwork turned out great. Sends the perfect vibe.

Really cool. Waterslide on a raw enclosure? Did you have to prep the enclosure at all?

The image is ironed on toner transfer with a light clear coat.  Preparation was scrubbing with some fine steel wool and metal polish before the image was applied.
