Sounds awesome, I really like the 1st and 5th clip.

I might do a few more Megalith clips tomorrow then I'll ship them back to you Thursday

Yeah the first and 5th are my favorite as well, more my style of playing. Figured I should mix it up a little though for those out there that have different preferences. Sadly, I can't cater to them as well; I'm not a very versatile player

Thanks again for letting me try these out, wish I had a Sparkle Motion handy to try boosting the Ox. I do think I'll end up buying one if I sell my Manx or something. Hopefully I can get it modded for a 9v plug, I'd get too lazy to take out the input cable every time I was done playing

I sent Univalve a whole collection of stuff. Here's a pic he took:

Could you please please please(!!!!) make a demo with the White Light on a low gain setting going thru the Mantra on a higher gain setting? It would make my day!

Alas, I do not have the Mantra anymore; I only had as part of temporary trade. I did run the Mantra into the White Light, it gave the Mantra sound a little of that gritty edge the White Light has.

Hey, I like it too! The LED clipping mode is awesome for heavier/brutalier stuff, and normal rat clipping is sweetness, and I don't really like the no clipping mode at all, haha

Depends on the IC for the no clipping mode.

I also figured out a way to do 4-way clipping: LED / Silicon / Germanium / No diodes/

Don't sell yourself short, man. The "Logic Fuzz" I had that you built was fucking rad. Judging by that, I think you're a great builder.

Your pcbs are awesome too. I sold the one I had just because I kinda bought it on impulse and became flat broke and wanted to build something else. Sorry if that seemed douchey, I'll definately buy parts from you again!

Thanks, bro!

Not at all. I don't take shit personally, especially when stuff is paid for. You bought it, so I don't care if you build it, smash it, give it away, etc.

You sir, thank you so much! I had a lot of fun checking these pedals out.

Neunaber Wet:
easy to use reverb with a lot of atmosphere and depth. it is a bit subtle for my taste. you can get kind of choral backings with it .but i'm not really into it that much. i like the spongy spring reverbs. so i did not found much of usage in my music for now. but i think i will need some kind of "real" reverb like theeventide space in the future.

Mountainking Ruckus
Great one knob pedal! i dig it. sounds a bit like a broken amp (fuck overdrive is very similar). the one knob is absolutly enough because the "tuned in sound" is awesome. a bit of crackle, distortion, squarewave fuzz but not killing the original guitar sound. if i would not own the fuck overdrive, i would buy this pedal.

Mountainking Megalith
Awesome. Full fuzz with a lot of bass and quite good compression (see kayzer's demo). i would love to have a presence knob on it though. i think, the gnomeratron can produce similar sounds (did not check it out 'cause mine is right now away) - just the compression will not be that high. Probably i will get this pedal

Fairfield Circuits Randys Revenge
not really a ring mod that i like. Some good sounds but i'm not blown away (but i compared it to my ring stanger - so this is not a really fair comparison). a lot of settings are to subtle and harmonic to me (i think this may be what other people like about it).

Fairfield Circuits Four Eyes
uh, i expected a lot but this pedal is really nothing for me. i did not get one sound out of it that i really liked.

D.A.M. Meathead
cool pedal. one good sound. fine. a bit dark but that may fit a lot of people quite good. ok, it is a hype and i do not need this sound (gnomeratron is doing this for me with a bit more focus in the treble part). thank god.

Black Cat Superfuzz
fun to play fuzz. if somebody just needs one fuzz, buy this. it is for me kind of the prototype of THE fuzz sound.

I did one of these with Bronzetalon. I sent him my Ring Thing and he ended up buying one of his own so I guess that's a good review. He sent me his Cosmichorus.
The Cosmichorus is a pretty great pedal. If I didn't already have two other chorus pedals and the Ring Thing, I'd think about picking one up. The slow sounds are good, the fast sounds are good and the drunken, off-kilter sounds are good. I wanted it to have an expression control for the speed. My only complaint is about the blend. Something about the clean mix bothered me.

also did this w/ kbithecrowing. he borrowed my fuck od, and i borrowed his ECT. a week later, he had bought a fuck of his own and i have an ECT on the way as well....yay for temp pedal trading!!!!

Yeah the Fuck is a pretty great pedal. I've used it after all my other fuzz with my bass; makes everything thicker and presence. & on it's own it's fantastic, too.
Also, guitar -> Fuck being fucked on high -> flanger -> reverb = huge gravelly synth sound. I tried to record it but my camera mic didn't do it any justice.
