Zing. Awesome pedal isn't it? I still haven't boxed mine up. Totally awesome pedal, but totally unusable as anything but a toy. Or at least so far it is. I thinking about putting mine in an old Bespeco volume pedal I have.
I bring it to jam sessions just to totally weird out everyone else I jam with. It's so hard to handle, but I've found I can get a tonne of useful Daft Punk-esque sounds from it.

Where'd you have yours built?

And yeah, I wouldn't mind being able to control a few of the aspects with a rocker pedal, but for the time being I'll just have to live with it.

I'll post some of the ways I utilize it later on, cuz I can't remember what the knobs each are but there's some cool ways it can be used to make sounds with minimal or no input from an electric guitar.

I'm into homebrew stuf so I built it on my own. I used to spend a bit of time on the DIY Stomp Boxes forum and thats how I discovered it. It's one of my favourite pedals out there and I love just playing with it.

I'm kinda considering making it possible to choose with pot to use with an EXP pedal using some stereo sockets that break a connection when a jack is plugged in. But I'm not sure how well it's going to work.

Updated board.

Still waiting on a polyphase. Then it will be no new pedals for awhile.

Are you wearing a slipper/shoe combo or is that a dog's arse in the pic?

Handen, thats a sweet '51, did you swap out the pickups on it, it looks different.

That is actually a very furry kitten who desperately wants to be in the pic.

It's got an American Fender Strat Neck pickup and a Dimarzio Super II in the bridge. I'm gonna solder out the Super II this week to make room for something else. It's gotta be f-spaced, this one isn't.

haha...yeah the ocd is from my pop...I'm not getting rid of it, it was more than he could afford, but he wanted to spoil me a bit so it means a lot to me...

but if I have the option between it on my board or the df-2...I'm not sure which will win out....the ocd sounds better...but the df-2 sounds pretty great and has a killer fun factor to it.

my board changing is slowing down a little...I'm finally finding some pedals worth holding onto....but that still won't keep me from buying more :lol:

What's the point in having a board filled with fancy pedals if you don't take them to gigs because you're afraid of them being nicked/damaged?

No, he bought the Moog Analog Ring Modulator he doesn't take out of the house. No backtracking, Mike! It's too akin to pussyfooting, which should be bannable.

although i dont have inscho's budget. my gear doesnt really leave the house at the mo..so iam a bedroom hereo too.
i dont think theres anything wrong with haveing gear that is only to be enjoyed in the house.(vintage guitars etc) so long as its getting used i dont see the problem.

Everyone knows I'm a dick when it comes to stuff like this - no backtracking would be acceptable.

well I'm back to square one with my whole band situation...so I don't have any gigging coming for at least 2-3 months. :(

but for gigs I'll probably just take a boost/od and a fuzz.....I don't really use effects all that much, its just fun to mess around with...especially when recording.
