With all the respect for the designer and for the apparently incredible sounding circuit, It has one of the worst artworks I have ever seen.
It looks like the sheet music workbooks for kids I had when I was 7 or 8 years old.
Seriously nobody else dislikes it?

You come from one of the best looking pedals in history and then you do.. This. :idk:
:picard:
I think it's a bit too much for me to spend, though it sounds cool.

But I think the sheet music workbook aesthetic is really endearing :lol: :idk:

this is important to get settled. Rule #2 for ILFtribe: tribe-approved pedals must be deemed rad looking by consensus.

I would own an In Limbo if they existed at times when I have money... or maybe just if they existed.

As someone who owns a Moog MF104M-SD and a DOD Rubberneck, I'd say if you're looking to spend $350 on a delay pedal without tap tempo go for this:

Otherwise just get a Rubberneck, but be sure to grab an external footswitch for it because I wrecked the first one I owned by constantly using the built in (probably PCB mounted) footswitches for my Rubberneckin' and self-oscillatin' needs.

Did not know about footswitch issues on the Rubberneck or that 60 second delay. I am definitely going to have to check out that one

That bluebox looks cool but I wish it had 1/4 inputs instead of the 3.5mm

lol yeah - i think they're trying for that uniformity

in general I'd always rather adapt from 1/8th inch up to 1/4 inch if there's a connector mismatch....
