I'm not really on the edge of my seat for new Toneprints to be released, but these aren't bad:

The Interstellar reverb one seems to be mining some of the territory that OBNE has been targeting with their modulated reverbs. [Hah! I hadn't even noticed the tell of the OBNE pedal on the guy's pedalboard.] The Reel Thing delay doesn't sound tape-ish to me, but sounds a bit Cocteau Twins, maybe.

Just in time for the new version to drop :cool:

It has also been 3 months since my CBmods Nanoverb shipped. Sent a concern email, got told to wait another month to see if it turned up... :grumpy:
Broken Raptio brother! :hug:
Turns out it still works... :erm:

I have a mini judder, but it doesn't have a mix control so I'm debating whether I should keep it. :( The stack mode is awesome though.

Yo what the fuck? I just stumbled upon the pete cornish TES and it's so dumb it blew my mind. Don't know where else to post but this thing is giving me anxiety?! It's a DD-2 with a mod circuit and a filter?? What the bloody fucking christ is up with the power supply?? That's how I power my fucking nuclear reactor in the basement. AND IT GOES FOR 3000€ FOR FUCKS SAKE. I am sorry if someone reads this and want's to defend it, but think about that setup with 3-4 roland space echos for the same price. Fuckin morons all over youtube raving over the clarity of the TES (tape echo simulator) vs some other tape and analog delays and it's just A BIG FUCKING JOKE buy a digital pedal then you dickwads

Image

Please tell me there is some feature that makes this pedal super fucking worth it and restore my faith in humanity + stop me from going into the "modding DD-2s business"

When I first saw that I had the same reaction, this is basically why I now build and/or mod cheap stuff to get what I want.

"IMHO The Cornish repeats do not sound as if they went through poorly designed cheap circuit stages - the DMM does... because of this harshness on the MM repeats, the Cornish is far better and more musical = clearly wins this round"

"There's one of these for sale for $4000, should i buy it?"

"Considering it is digital, and is a fraction of the cost of the TES, that Timeline is exceptionally good. If money and pedalboard space were no object, TES wins."

It's not the what it is that makes the price. It's the who it is building them and the lore that goes with.

This is true, of course. I need to calm down and accept that there are people who put 90% of TGP to shame. I guess they look at us and go "omg they pay X dollars for something completely unmusical lol"

Can someone try to explain the power supply at least? It looks redundant as fuck and makes the thing unusable on a board

Don't look at us and say we don't fall into the same traps, we are not too far off. :idk: I bought a Schumann PLL clone for $400 and almost bought a Polygrace for that much...okay,i don't know what sorcery the Polygrace has, but the Schumann PLL is literally just a PLL circuit, yet we pay out the ass for it. :idk:

Actually the Schumann PLL is a boutique boutique that you can't ask a mere mortal to recreate, if I remember correctly.
