Roland Double Beast. Input cap blend (Idea from John Lyons' build!) Didn't really need it but it can dial in some serious low end that makes the wood in the speaker cabinet flex. A little too much low end that can get flabby but nice to be able to dial/blend to taste.

@skulls did you consider using switching jacks on these megapedals such that there is some default order connected and no cables required for the most typical use? or do you find you are always swapping them anyways?

@lao

is the dog head based on this (russian part closer to end ~9mins) ?

@multi_s I had considered it a bit, but when I put my board together last night I already started to do some swapping around of the order of things. There is now a Freeze and a Spring Reverb after the Compressor and Rangemaster but before the drive and fuzz!

I used the Taptation schematic for the tap tempo, added a clean blend circuit, and a fuzz as well

Are you getting noise from the taptation? I want to try one but literally everything I've read about it says it makes your delay pretty noisy.. Like even a small marginal amount of noise?

I didn't notice anything super noisy about it! I mean at extended delay times of course there was a bit of clock noise to it, but as far as other noise I couldn't hear any!

Sick. So can you somehow limit the max delay time that can be tapped in or can you just tap in whatever and it does it?
