i'd like to do something like this in the future, but i just need to justify the added cost of the patchbay. i've made an RCA patchbay before (which is a cheap option) but the contacts just weren't 100% reliable. the banana jacks/plugs aren't
too expensive, but you need a handful of them and i make the cords myself as well. it all just gets a bit time consuming...
i may certainly build a few one offs or small runs like that though, as it seems like a bunch of folks are interested.

ha! coming in like 2 weeks - as soon as my enclosures get silkscreened, they'll be built and shipped. in fact, they're already built! i just need to get my little paws all over those dirty dirty enclosures...

hey
if you want something simpler/more usable and want to release it next month I say go with the mountain range!
I'd also be really interested in the patchable delay, but I need to ask (forgive me if that's already in another thread):
what is the reason for the patchbay? what signal(s) is it that you can re-route?

yeah it seems to be the poll consensus and what i felt in my gut anyways.
the patchbay delay does some "circuit bending" within the delay, so basically it just lets you route random parts of the circuit to other parts. there are a few really cool points, but as cool as it looks, if i were ever to build something like that i would most likely find the patches the seem to be the most useful and just have them prewired as pots/switches.

Mountain Range!
So what will the fuzz mode sound like?

ask blurzy. he had some very kind things to say about it...
overall, it's pretty low gain, so the fuzz mode isn't really too over-the-top. it basically goes from open to more compressed.
not really sure exactly how to explain it.

even prewired would be awesome

if the pedal remains and sounds experimentally circuit-bend-ish,
and that would be a cheap and clever solution to the patchbay (thou it wouldn't look so appealing for some people)…
and even without patches… "the patchbay delay" sounds like a name for it, or it does not?

I am in 100% favor of an analog delay! Especially if you build an overdrive circuit into it as well (doesn't even have to be independent! One on/off switch total). Dirty driven analog delay withpreqired wacky circuitbends. HELL YES.
