Samurai Switch V2.0

Post by McSpunckle »

Finally built this damn thing. It's a true bypass/feedback looper pedal with a momentary footswitch. In "red" mode, it works like a normal feedback looper with the momentary switch stopping the feedback. In "green" mode, it's a true bypass looper with the momentary switch starting feedback.

It has intensity and loop volume controls, and the bypass switch true-bypasses the whole thing.

I like it. :idk:

I'd be glad to make and sell them if people were interested. Unfortunately, I can't really get a decent demo at the moment. It's really just a feedback looper, though, so you can imagine it's functions and how it'll work, and you'll be nowhere close because every pedal is different. ^_^

Hmm... maybe I could send one off to someone for a demo?

Imma build a new one (this one's mine. It's a rough proto. It doesn't look as good, nor is the wiring as good as it could be-- but it works, so it's mine), and send it to a friend to demo... assuming he promises to do a demo.

I'd sell them for $55, if anyone wants one. Or a variation, for that matter. I do kinda need money...

But mostly I really like this setup, so I built it for myself. : p

That looks really nice, man! I like the idea of having the two modes on a flooper... the more options, the merrier!

With the intensity @ zero - does it function just as a standard tb loop?

What's the wait time? I'm definitely interested!

No. The toggle switch makes it work like a feedback loop or a true bypass loop. The momentary footswitch does whatever the switch isn't set to.

Wait time is probably about a week. The time to get the parts, a day to build it, and a day or so to ship it out. :idk:

Old thread. :lol:

Yeah... but you see... I can actually make up a half believable excuse for two FBLs on my board.....maybe :evil:

It's either one of these of a second Chk Chk Boom.
