The Gnomeratron pictured in the first post is mine!! Lucky gnome #3!! That green LED is blinding and cool!!
I love it on bass!! I transferred this message I just posted on TB :

My favorite setting thusfar is:
cleanish at 12, tone at full;
magic off diodes set at LED/SCOTTKY, octave off, filter at 12 - 3;
fuzz vol @ 12, gain @max, gate @ 9 - 12, tone @ 12 - 3;
both trims for clipping maxed, and the other 2 trims @ min.
Sounds great with a passive trib L2500 w/ TI jazz flats.
Into a VT Bass and throgh power amp sounds phenomonal and cut through loud guitar well. Massively bassy and
a heavy overdriven fuzz that is powerful yet soothing as well.

Yup. :love:

3 versions of them. : p


My favourite settings are:

Diode 1: Off
Diode 2: Schottky
Octave: On
Filter: Middle

Gain: 90% up
Gate: High... wherever the noise stops and it gates just a bit
Tone: Noon, maybe a little higher
Clean tone: Down a bit
Fuzz set wherever, clean(ish) whatever makes it just break through

All trimmers up, except the output one.

It's like a Brassmaster, but more synthy.

I can answer at least one of those questions: I have heard it played with guitar once already, and it slayed. HARD. The guy was able to get all sorts of crazy controlled-oscillation-meets-Blue-Box-octave-down sounds without even playing with the knobs. Based on the amount of control options you have with it on bass, I know you can dial in about a million other sounds as well. And the octave fuzz setting has an amazing filter-y feel that I really dig.

As for ordering, PM McSpunckle here and he'll tell you the deal (since he's the builder).

EDIT: also, I would seriously love love love love to hear a Kayzer demo of a Gnomeratron. For reals.

If McSpunkle is really done making this version I would def let you borrow mine just to demo it. Your demos rule.

Thanks a lot for the offer, but i only lend pedals for demos within the EU to avoid custom troubles which are very likely... Hope you are EU based ;-)
