Thanks Jahsoul!

Would you want the expression pedal to control the speed of the tremolo? That's a great idea and definitely will keep it in mind.

Toggle between control of rate & depth?

hey michael, welcome! don't waste your time with fuzz, it's played outARRRRRRGHGHGHGHHEHHEAHHGEHHEHHHEAHAHGHE :animal:

couldn't do it sorry, the ILF monster in me devoured my sarcasm..... boo....

seriously though, expression jacks :thumb:

i spend a large portion of my DIY'ing installing expression jacks to control aspects for my favorite pedals, a vibrato, trem, or even a fuzz with the ability to be manipulated on the fly on stage with an expression pedal is worth the extra little bit of time dropping a jack in the box.... DO IT!!!

and welcome, by all means fuzz the freak out....

Great idea with the toggle between speed and depth! I'll have to see if I can work that one into the design because that would be the cats pajamas. It's good to know how much you guys like expression pedals. I bet the trem would sound nuts using one of my expression switches using it back and forth on time. Hmm, good food for thought :thumb:

I was going for speed, but both wouldn't hurt I suppose. More the merrier.

Voltage controlled fuzz. DO IT DO IT DO IT. :hug:

Thanks for the welcome Magiclawnchair! I will do some experimenting with the expression pedal on the trem once I have the Burly Buzz (octave fuzz pedal) all set to go. CV fuzz, oh man maybe at a later date :thumb:

I pretty much got the vibrato I was looking for thanks to Cloudscapes, but what I think more people need to implement is the multiple waveform option with vibratos. Sine waves are nice, but having jaunty waves is even more fun, especially if you have the capacity to create and store your own created waves.

Michael · Post by **Michael** » Tue May 11, 2010 9:27 pm

My Vibe will likely have the same waves as my trem (sine, square, saw up, saw down) and be tap/pot controllable with and expression pedal input for speed and intensity. How's that grab ya? It's so nice to have all of your input on what people would like to see and more importantly hear!

The first Burly Buzz will hit the scene this weekend on my pedal board :joy:

It will be in a plain enclosure though, I'll be sure to let you all know how it is perceived.

I had a buddy of mine come over today and he just played while I was messing with controls and he was a big fan of it! He said he loved how it could go from nice and crunchy to fuzzy to just plain weird haha I love it!

Hey Michael, awesome to see you around here! Welcome to ILF!

Can't wait to see/hear the Burly Buzz, what a cool name!

Dunno how critical tap is to a vibe pedal... I guess it depends on how much it'll run up the price. Although I can see how it would be nice to be able to mount the vibe and trem in identical enclosures.

:idea:

Two speed knobs, and the second footswitch changes between them, Hammond style?

Michael · Post by **Michael** » Wed May 12, 2010 12:20 am

Hey Ryan, Thanks for dropping by and for the welcome! I love ILF also, great gear and great people :joy:

Chumley, I'm a huge tap kind of guy so whenever I have the chance to add tap to something I jump on it! You could still have this set to use two speeds though, having one speed set on the pot and another on the tap. The tap is adjustable even when the pot is the active timing device. So you can switch your speeds without bending over to change your knobs.

It's just the way I am I guess :idk:

Hah, no worries. :thumb:

If you guys would be so kind when finding yourself in your local guitar shop and you feel it worth while, I'd appreciate if you would mention me to the staff! Let them know the Burly Buzz will be released in late June and the Super Loopers.

The Burly Buzz will all be handwired! No PCB's here! I want to offer you all the most boutique hand built quality on the market and it starts with hand wiring and selecting and matching components to make the most of every pedal produced! I'll be posting some pictures for possible pedal art to get some feedback on what designs ya'll like best and which knob layout ya'll like best. After all, you're the ones that will be using it the most!

May the Fuzz be with you :thumb:
