G&L Asat Special -> Dr. Scientist BitQuest -> Fender Deluxe Reverb

1. Filter / Clean Mode / Exp. Pedal
2. Flanger / Distortion Mode
3. Reverb / Clean Mode / Exp. Pedal
4. Bitcrusher / Clean Mode / Modulation

I definitely encourage you to use the BitQuest with an expression pedal, especially with the filter modes.

There are a lot of amazing possibilities in this pedal. They don't call it a quest for nothing!


Fantastic, Franz, thank you for making this! Sounds great! I always hope you guys will make demos like this to really show the pedals off making music, so much better than my utility demos going through the controls. Nicely done buddy!

The expression input takes over for a linear 50k pot, B50k, and the digital pot inputs are quantized to have a certain number of steps according to a certain value of resistance, so you want to stick to that 50k.. more probably wouldn't matter but less might not hit all the values between min and max. I still like the Moog EP-2, it's an adjustable 50k, TRS cable, beefy, and 50ish bucks.

I'll be checking in for your choices soon, dudes! I'll just get through the paid ones and then get yours and I'll make your pedals this week. Thanks for being patient with me! And thanks for the awesome looking boxes, you guys nailed it as usual!

OK back to shipping, got a full day of shipping to do!

Good man!

It's the single most underrated pedal in the known universe. It destroys most everything. In most every way. Mostly.

Nobody in Australia ordered one yet.. it would be sweet as to send one there, far out Tom-o! (Been watching a lot of The Block, I got your slangs down. *smile*)

Haha that's awesome, Ian, a Boromir meme! I love it! Thank you again and I hope you like your Frazz, prepare for palm mutes and power chords buddy!

Aww thanks Matt! The Frazz is definitely the Rodney Dangerfield of my line-up but I swear it rips harder than many many fuzzes, it's crazy high gain yet quiet, I love it. Maybe too grindy for the general public? Too intended for clean amp use? Too high gain maybe?

Look at all this shipping! More this week, gotta do some store pedals now and I'll mix in the remaining BitQuests too!
