if it's remotely based on the KV-100 preamp that was based on the TM-5, it's incredible.

I'm diggin

It's got CV input. Any thoughts on what you'd run into it - sequencer, other waveforms, etc.? Maybe it sweeps the Complex Distortion (i.e. expression pedal)?

Demo vid up on site

I have an idea. What if you were to put similar tubes like the ones in the FX1 into those EHX tube distortions?

F-1 landed a few days ago. Fukkin killa. Amazing range of sounds. Subtle tweaks makes for big differences. Especially the tone knob on guitar. Here's a rough recording
