Yikes, this thing was a PITA for me! I started this a while back on a prefab board from Tonepad. For the life of me, I couldn't get it going. I found the board to be really fragile, the solder pads. I prefer MB's all the way. After failing to debug I said screw it and etched my own board, cannibalized the other and got it running right away. Who knows. I prefer to roll my own, but will gladly buy Brian's boards when I can't or don't feel like etching.

Anyway, I'm really pleased with this build. I powder coated and decaled the enclosure a while back, didn't like how the decal yellowed and I powdered the clear too thick. I used the aircraft stripper (thanks fastocker) and took it down to metal with little effort at all. I refinished it with white powder, a clear laser decal and clear. Again, powder from Columbia. I'm super happy with the sound and finish.









I should still be a "diode destroyer"!

Man that is an incredibly nice finish. The detail in the moon is epic!

That's a pretty pedal. I like the decal and the way the bezels match up to the black area. Nice design.

pretty beautiful build that


tremulus lune is a lovely sounding tremolo.

Beautiful pedal.  I love the decal.  It reminds me of Joe Meek for some reason.

I like how clear and beautiful that decal is. The moon really stands out, and it's nicely proportioned on the pedal. Very cool stuff.

I just finished up the stereo panneur  (two lunes with panning features) which I got from 4ms and I found the board as good of quality as MB's. The twelve board mounted full size pots sure made it a much easier build.  Only needed to adjust the led's and cds' to get both sides dialed in.  I sourced my own components but got the pcb and drilled enclosure from 4ms. Took my time and matched component values as close as possible for each channel. I love this thing. So versatile and sounds so good.  I have a thing for stereo effects anyway.

Sounds cool man 8)
Need a build report with pics, methinks!
