release date Friday, 7-24-15.
Intro ILF brodown lowprice $139. (reg price $179, this thing is expensive to make!) US shipping is free, international $30 via USPS priority.
First run of 10 will be 'large heart' graphics shown, next ten and future runs will have 3 smaller hearts across the middle (full, half, empty heart meter) and the switches will be under the knobs.
I have had MANY requests for this thing so don't blow it. The next batch will have a couple weeks wait.
What is it? It's a fuzzy pulse width modulator that does straight up old school video game sounds (not a transistor fuzz that sorts sounds like a video game, this actually does a pseudo analog to digital conversion in a lofi bitcrush type way) but also has an onboard optical (vactrol) LFO, that can do square chop or smooth sine sweeps between the highest bit rate and whatever you set as the bit low point. The result is low sweeping phaser-like bit sweeps, or stuttering bitcrunching and all sorts of synth goodness. Most settings work well on the higher notes on a guitar too, and it has plenty of sustain, so you really have a great "synth engine" to run into your other effects.
Controls: switch 1: LFO wave control (square, soft triangle, sine), switch 2: tone filter (flat, bright, deep).
Knobs: Bit depth, LFO depth, LFO speed, Volume.
By carefully tuning the knobs this thing can get a million sounds. Straight old school 8bit sounds can be had by selecting sine wave LFO and turning the speed and depth all the way up; same setting on square wave yields an 8 bit ring mod. back off the speed a hair and it's a hummingbird trem-u-bit. just a billion things to do with it.
