Also, bit of advice, don't type "Montreal Ass" into google at work, and expect the search engine to know what you're talking about.
I recently emailed him about the Goodbye 24 as well. I hope they're ready soon even though I should stop spending money.

Lately, I've been really liking feedback loops. I recently got a good deal on a Fairfield Circuitry Operator and I have an Utter Stutter on the way from ChetMagongalo. Definitely good for some odd textures. It's super fun with a fuzz, delay, and reverb in the loop; so much oscillating weirdness.

I've also heard good things about the Boss PS-3 or PS-6 for pitch shifting. And I think the PS-3 is a delay too. Both are on my gas list.

Also, I got to mess around with an EQD Arpanoid the other day. Crazy fun, and tons of nutso stuff in there.

I'd like a little versatility. I'm going to order a Goodbye when he builds them again. I wonder if he'd build me one of those delays too...

What about a Mooer Pure Octave to stay my Micro POG GAS? Are they similar enough?

I dug it a lot. Easy to get good sounds out of, and for what it is I think it sounded fairly natural-ish. TB, relatively low current draw, standard 9v. Truck loads of volume, and the clean sound is good enough that you could turn the octaves down and the clean up and use it as a boost. Build quality is rad. What I dislike with polyphonic octave effects is the lag. After a while it just annoyed the shit out of me, which is also why I won't buy an Organzier. Never played a POG so I don't know if their algorithms/chip cope better. The lag on the Z.cat is no worse than the Organizer though.

I thought the small delay/lag was supposed to be there? Makes it sound more organ'ish, no?
