So, I finally finished this one. Had to redo the etching three times, because I wasn't content with the results. The third time the depth was very low, but I just couldn't be arsed doing it again. It was supposed to be a two-coloured design with the squares on the bottom part filled in with black, but I've lost most of it while sanding. Also, I've used primer for the first time, which seems to make the paint way more durable.
In the end, I went with a used look. because of the low depth I sanded into the lowered areas too, so I just went ahead and sanded the whole thing and worked the corners and such. I like how it turned out, even if it wasn't my initial intention.

I had to take the whole thing apart. I had the sequencer going, but the pattern indicator didn't light up and no effected signal was coming through. As suspected, the sequence was going to GND after the step LEDs. Turns out you can't even buy LEDs @ tayda anymore. ALL the leds had bare leads instead of being covered by the plastic lens/housing. A few layers of nail polish did the trick though.

Very fun circuit, I still have to play with the internal trimmers. Thanks Brian

That just looks so great!!
The style kind reminds me of some Malekko pedals (Ekko 919).
Such a great job, it's very impressive, once again.

Love the graphics. The font reminds me of early EHX stuff.

I love that yellow Felix. I have had so many problems with yellow paint when I have used it with etching. Yours came out great!

Wrote about it here.. haha

I ended up getting all flat colors now and just use gloss after the sanding.
