Nope, Brian works on four to five pedals simultaneous with Dr. Octagonapus arms.

My "Feedback" knob only seems to have two settings, turned all the way counterclockwise and you get one repeat. Turn it clockwise and you still get one and just one repeat, until you hit about four or five o'clock, where you get instant self isolation/wall of noise? Is this a feature or a bug?

How do you have the other knobs set? They're all highly interactive with eachother. EQ when it's past 3 o'clock and the range knob can especially cause it to self oscillate.

Doesn't seem to matter how the other knobs are set. I was just wondering if anyone can get more than one repeat out of it. The way the feedback knob seems to work is that there are two settings: one repeat, and self oscillate.

Mine has severl repeats, but I have to crank the feedback knob pretty far to get more than just the one, and I have to put it just right for it not to oscillate. But it works fine when I dial it in careful.

Poo. That is poop. Sorry. Something did change in my pedal and oscillation went from around noon to around 3. Eq always maxd. Was weird but I don't care.

Only weird thing is I have to unplug power and plug it back in to get the delay to work.

Are you using a one spot? I'm wondering if it's to blame. It's surprising how isolated power makes a difference. My second voice sometimes doesn't work unless a pedal is engaged after it due to the one spot.

I tweaked it and got some more repeats out of it! Very sensitive, this one!

EDIT: never mind, there's a problem still.

some odd reports for sure that all seem to be similar - a weird repeat problem or gnarlier sounding repeats than usual - but also plenty of folks without any problems... so yeah it seems that power has really been the only issue. i'm honestly surprised since i tried 4 (5 if you count the breadboard's internal supply) different power supplies during the prototyping stage (cioks, 1spot, PP+, boss) and didn't have any weirdness...

i'm still working on another PCB version to see if it can stifle these issues.

If you redo the PCB could you also implement some more / different / finer control over the envelope section and maybe have the exp input on the feedback instead of the time maybe?
Should we wait for the new PCB then before sending the No Memory in for a fix?

Yeah I put my pedal up to this video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oanRMv4NCyE

Mine doesn't do most of the stuff in this video. No variation on the feedback knob at all... you can turn up the tone all the way but just a whisper after the first repeat really, until you go to 4 o'clock then it is just self-oscillation. :cry:

yeah i'll keep you updated on it. i have it completely laid out and am going to order test boards while i'm gone so when i get back i can check them out immediately.
