Re: IN LIMBO
I've ordered one and I'm still waiting for it to arrive, hence why I haven't sent the pedal to you yet Tristan. Sorry but I didn't want to send it with only a possibly broken power supply. I would be much quicker to blame my adapter than the power supply but I don't have any way of testing it and I thought it'd make more sense to try a whole new power supply. So that's the situation right now.
If anyone objects to this ie if you just want the pedal now and a power supply which may or may not work, then by all means tell me and I'll post it out asap. I'm sure I'll have a use for a spare power supply at some later time.

Re: IN LIMBO
No worries, yeah best to test it out before you send it on. For the power supply were you able to find a negative tip one? Sometimes they're pretty hard to find.

Re: IN LIMBO
Picked it up last night and spent some time with it this morning. Really, really impressed with it. A TON of sounds.
I recorded two demos this morning (Bass VI and guitar) that I will upload tonight. I will give some warning that they are both 20 minutes long and full of random noodling. But there were so many sounds that I feel like I JUST got through them all in about 20 minutes per instrument. Going to do a bass demo tomorrow morning. I just recorded these with my iPhone, but I think I will also record a few tracks (time permitting) showcasing the delay so I can upload some actual mic'd and in a mix demos.
First impressions:
- One of the best and most usable mix controls that I've found on a delay pedal, let alone analog delay pedal.
- Tone control is awesome. I like that there is a HUGE range on it too, it really helps out between instruments and what you're trying to do with the repeats. Some delay tone knobs that I have used have been 'meh', but this one is really well rounded.
- The waveform modes add a ton of different sounds, of course. But they are all useable. The ARP mode is really beautiful, and is a lot more musical than other arp modes that I have encountered (Supa Puss, Deluxe Memory Boy, I'm looking at you two).
- There is very very little clock noise/noise in general that I found with the unit, which is awesome. I only got a little bit of clock whine when I completely stretched the delay time out to like a full second, which is completely understandable, and actually sounded really awesome again.
- Intuitive. With as many features that are packed into it, it's really easy and straight-forward to dive into.
- Can get really nice and washy
- A subtle bit of breakup on the repeats when you hit it with a hotter signal. I dig it, it's very musical.
I'll upload those videos tonight and post them, as well as give some more thoughts!

I agree with every one of those statements.

I'll get the bass demo recorded at some point tomorrow! Let me know if the quality is good or not on these recordings. It's a little hard to turn my amps up loud in the morning when I record these. If we need a mic'd demo let me know

Re: IN LIMBO
Going to record one song mic'd with the pedal and then I will send it off. Didn't get to making the bass demo yet but I plan on it in the morning. Then it'll be off to Bellyheart!

Re: IN LIMBO
Right, so here's the situation with the EU tourbox.
It's still with me, because either the power supply sent with it or my EU-UK adapter has broken. I ordered a new UK power supply instead of trying a second adapter because I thought it would make more sense to buy that. That was when I thought it would take a week at most for the new power supply to arrive, but now it's been 2 weeks and no sign of it.
I asked Tristan what he thought and he said he'd prefer if I sorted out the power situation, but what do you other guys think? If you just want it now, I'll happily send it on as soon as I can, I feel really bad for having had it so long!
I'll get on to the shop I got the power supply from, I'm surprised because they've always been good to deal with in the past, and I'll buy a new adapter and try that out. In the meantime let me know what you think.

Re: IN LIMBO
Hey dude, why not go to the shop and take the pedal with you so you can try it out with the adapter / wall wart right there?
That way at least you don't have to buy the adapter / wall wart if that doesn't prove to be the problem.
I'm still a bit lost on the whole power thing, my Ciokolate will probably be here pretty soon but I guess I can't power the In Limbo with that either as I understood apart from the 15V it also needs a different polarity.
Anyway, I can't really send my Ciokolate along with the pedal without too dumb high postal charges I guess so nobody apart from me will actually benefit from it which is also pretty lame, that's kinda my thinking.
