Jesus would want you to pay list price.

I will do it. For the Lord.

Here!!!! Blooper time!!!!



Coming:
- Saturnworks pedal order switcher - to replace my T1Ms that is flukey
- CooperFX Arcades - just couldnt not get in on that one (lofi / pitch version)
- Mattoverse Double Gate Drone - been eanting one of these for a while. Made a last minute call to wait on getting a synth and just focus ony tabletop pedal setup

Going:
- nothing but Ive got a few things I'd swap or sell out...maybe

Still wanting / planning on getting:
- Chase Bliss Mood
- ASM Hydrasynth

My GAS for a new power supply has been satisfied...BY NOT BUYING ONE.

Probably nobody is gonna find this relevant but i'm just too satisfied not to write this.

Because i just couldn't accept the fact that i need a new power supply (or at least i thought so), i decided to make some calculations, deep dive in the internet looking for the true power draws of pedals, re-think the entire board-powering and.... I WON.

The Truetone CS12 never let me down during all this years, and i can confirm it's a winner.

First: i found out that the old POG requires only 220mA 18VDC (reversed polarity) instead of the 500mA indicated by EHX - i don't know why i never looked for this information before, considering that i've been using it for more that 10years - DUMB ME.

Second: i realized that, deep in my "i want a new PSU" hole, i was forgetting the big advantage of CS12: the entire power (3000mA) is divided through the outputs regardless how the outputs are marked. This means i can power digital pedals that draw more than 200mA from outputs marked as 100mA. And this works for the 18VDC outputs too.

Third: i used to daisy chain 3-4 pedals to power all the board with the 1SPOT 11 outputs, and this totally worked until i added a coule ofacquirements in the last months. Turns out i simply had to re-think what pedals to daisy-chain and what needed a dedicated output.

RESULT: i just wired the entire chain of 19 pedals on the new board (yep, it's huge) and everything works correctly without background noise issues, including the POG!
I think i fucked up at least three dedicated power supplies during the years just because i thought there was no other way to power that damn octaver.
Now i daisy chained 4 fuzz/dirt/boost pedals, 1chorus, 1 tremolo and 1 tuner, without hum issues.

End of the story, hope you enjoyed it, i'm just sooooooo happy.

Aslo i have to mention this couldn't have been doable on a Strymon Zuma - which costs a lot more $ - because of the power distribution thing.


I just have to wait for the new patch cables and i can wire everything properly - right now i'm in cable-mess nightmare.

We're gonna need pics

Bought the first pedal since August of 2018, which has got to be a record for me.

Went with this thing ...

DID AN EXPENSIVE IMPULSE

NOICE!
Saw it on FB, really cool finish!

Couldn't stand the small amps anymore so I got the biggest one I could afford https://www.instagram.com/p/B_mg7wdqKUc ... _copy_link

Might have been pricey, but think of all the companionship dividends that sweet kitty will yield.

Hell yah cool mini! and sweet teeny weeny amplifini

If everything goes ok with me this month, my plan is to buy a Dusk from Ryan soon. I got a Random Phase Vibrato recently as well in one of Doug's "name your price" sales. I wonder if I'm like the only one who calculates things on those. LOL. I was like...hmmm...he's doing a sale, so I can get something off but I don't want to insult him because the pedals are killer. So I did the math on 20% off. Do you guys think that's a fair offer? Obviously he said yes, but I thought about it again and I'm like, did I really need like 20 bucks off? You know what I mean. I dunno. Anyway, I love, love the pedal and incorporated it into a song already. So, it's here to stay. I do wish I had a blend knob on there but the Klein Bottle will fix that.

That is such a rad design! I'm glad he sold out as quick as he did or I might have done the same thing.
