Ok, I'm currious now. xD

Do the pedals smell like pot, or unbathed people... or a combo of both?

Is there pot in them? If so, can I get in on the tourbox?

It's just a really intense incense, kinda like a hot topic or something.
Someone must have dunked it in oil or something.

Was to beat today...tomorrow is fuzz day :omg:

The only hot topic I've ever been too smells like cinnamon rolls...

But it was next to a Cinnabon.

I swear I didn't do anything intentional to make it smell like hippies. I hope it doesn't affect you really giving the pedal a good try out.

Exactly that. It's some kind of lavender explosion :!!!:

Oh I'm just kidding around, was just too busy to use them yesterday.
Will give them a shot (along with my new circuit breaker) tonight.

...just a quick off topic question about the Gnomeratron VTF - in how many smell finishes does the new version come? :lol:

Box should be at the next stop tomorrow!
I didn't get as much time as I'd like with them (jury duty :mad:) but I did get a few brief chances to play them.

My favorite thing about the gnomeratron was the sorta unpredictable sputtery decay on single note runs...kinda like a mkI on crack with some octave thrown in :omg:
The level of control was pretty awesome, though I just kept everything cranked :cool:

The finish is so damn cool, I just sat there poking it (with my penis) for a while, it even feels awesome.

Aardvarks I also dug...especially the clean-ish boost mode, very nicely done spunkz.
I woulda tried to do something cooler besides a short write up but I didn't want to hold up the box...I'm back in jury duty this week as well :no:

I do that to every single one before they go out. It's like we touched tips!

Just gave them a quick run down.
Initial impressions:
Gnomeratron is intense, but, right off the bat, way too much kit for me. I like bypassing the clipping diodes and turning the magic up.
I really dig the dirty boost on And Aardvarks.
