Actually, it is the Flex in a smaller package. :lol: :idk:

No problem, just don't see the point in having the same pedal released but in a slightly smaller footprint. I like the charm of the original boxes a lot, so I hope they keep that look even if they go to pre-fab pcbs.

Gotcha! Yeah, I agree. Plus, with pedals like that, I always like the most controls possible. It's usually better that way. :D

Anyone have experience with Mantic pedals having really loud switches? My Proverb is all-around a noisy pedal, and recently I noticed whether I'm turning the knobs or bypassing it, it passes pops and buzzes pretty terribly.

solo tunes:
completed works || loosey goosey releases
associated acts:
Raab Zamboni (fake jazz/real noise//sax, modular synth, editing, misc) || Field Guide (my best friends//sax on 2 tracks)

I make t-shirts, patches, koozies, buttons, CDs, sometimes tapes, and eventually i'll start working on pedals again. DM me for pricing!

The answer to this is no....... Disregarding the modulator on the 4046, the oscillators on it are infinitely more tweakable, for both controlled sounds and crazy glitchiness. The flex offers nothing extra or different. Boo.
