Thanks for GAS I have no use for, jwar :lol:

I do wish the LFO could move at even lower rates though. Get those long sweeps :snax:

Ah!! Thanks for posting this! LOL!! It took all night to upload! LOL!

The LFO is expression sweepable, I just didn't do it in the demo. I'd have to do a demo to cover just the expression controls! hahaha. It's just a vast filter.

One thing that's interesting about it is it's a tad picky about how hot a signal you can use to break through the filter. So if you have a stronger dirt/fuzz with more volume on tap, it will love it. If it's subtle, it will get kind of washed out. The Dirty Doper worked PERFECT with it and I was getting some killer sweeps.

I think I'll be able to do more once I have the actual manual. LOL.

But overall it's fucking amazing. It does so much and I was baffled by the vast amount of differing tones on tap. The ring mod thing really surprised me. I actually had NO clue it would do that. LOL.

There's also a dry out on it, so that's actually pretty damn cool. You can run a seperate dry signal. Also love the fact that all the parameters are expression controlled That was a brilliant idea from them.

Sounds good, seems cool. Too bad it's ugly and you can't trust anyone who tucks their t-shirt into jeans. EVER.

Haha! That's one of the artists they have on their page.

I actually like the look.

And he sounds good! More fiddlemen should run through lfo-driven filters. :)* I'm down with the colors and knobs and layout. Just not into the mouth and the font.

If you still dig it, there will be more. Pedals come and go. I feel your pain bro. My amp dies last year and it fucking sucked balls.

I know, and I keep telling myself that it's just a pedal but I get emptionally attached to the ones with super sweet graphics AND sounds because I make up lengthy stories about them in my head.
