Ooooh, I didn't know about that headphone amp thing. I already use a Tech21 VT Bass DI plugged in my mixer but if I'm in a situation with no mixer that could be useful...
Also curious as to how it's supposed to sound and whether it does some kind of preamp thing or not. Because that video on their page is basically useless...

Anyway, it'll probably overpriced as fuck once it arrives here :(.

saw that. pretty weak, tbh. their argument is that the la flaca looks like an SG. By what, having "horns" are the front? it's otherwise shaped somewhat dissimilar.

Welp, my Phoenix power supply just kicked it - the jack for the power cord somehow came loose and now it won't receive power at all. I sold my old power supply, so now all I've got is a one-spot :cry: Five pedals coming in this week too
To top that off, I was fixing to post a FS ad for it, because it no longer meets my high-current needs (it has four 300mA outputs; by this week's end I will have 9 pedals with >100mA draw) and I was going to upgrade to a Yankee HS-M12 power supply, but I just checked Reverb out of desperation and discovered that no US retailers have stock of that supply anymore. So even after the Phoenix gets repaired/returned, there's no telling when I'll even be able to have a power supply that can power all my pedals.

I've been feeling pretty down about my playing/work ethic lately so this was a real kick in the balls :mope:

Finally got to try a Ricochet today and holy shit is that thing cool. The controlled rise and release is such a rad feature, you can get a lot of sounds out of it that require a ton of control to get out of an expression pedal. Also it makes it more useful for an actual Whammy simulation in the 2nd mode. Cool little warbles and stuff just come out. Overall, fucking rad pedal and I'm buying one. It's also tiny.

Oh, and the release still works in latch mode when you turn it off which is so sick, but also does anyone have one and know if that turns off?

Does anyone know what size power adapter Volcas use? I see that they're center positive, but they're smaller than the 2.1mm typical lead. I'm getting a big momma power supply today and I'd like to buy whatever cable I need to hook my Volcas up to that so I can have all my gear powered by the same supply.

Awesome! Will this also do the center negative to center positive conversion, or do I need a reverse polarity 2.1mm cable going into it?

What's good in eq pedals? I need one for using my E standard and C standard guitars with the same amp. Seems like the boss 7 band is pretty much the standard? Any reason to look at other stuff?

source audio one seems really cool, they always make solid stuff and it has presets
