Let's talk pedals. I was just sitting here playing my ILFDD and I just can't imagine myself every not having it. I love this pedal beyond believe and am amazed every time I turn it on. The same goes with my Bitquest and my Dual Elements (wink Ryan lol). But I have made the mistake of getting rid of a few of his gems as well.
I had a Frazz and flipped it very early on in my fuzz quest, I need to remedy that.
I flipped two version of the Cosmi and regret it all the time.
I'm thinking an all Dr. Scientist board is in order. I mean seriously. You make everything I need. Everything I want. Once you put out a phaser, and a dedicated cough flanger cough. I'll be set.
SOOOOOOOOO good.
Just wanted to share some love. :)
Awww what a nice post, thanks Adam! I love you too buddy! Been one of my best and favourite pals for a long time now and absolutely the best guy to work with. I wish we did a lot more work together too, I see that growing bigtime through the years!
Clean Channel wrote:More crazy Ryan and his pedals love from me too!
My board is practically all Dr.S, and ever since it got to be that way, all of my buying/changing pedals totally slowed down. Everything Ryan makes is just so good and so right all the time!
Hey Tim! You're the best too buddy and thank you again for helping me with customer's chorus questions, what a guy!
vidret wrote:totally awesome dude and totally awesome pedals, what's not to love. also looking forward to phaser! (OR PHASER PATCH COME ON YOU KNOW IT BRO!)
and yeah, got an ILFDD last week. unseated the el cap. perfect sound, awesome looks. just great stuff all around.
Haha thanks vid! I hear you buddy, I'll make a phaser for sure one day.. I won't let my ILF buddies down!

I just wanted to kill myself. I felt like I betrayed Ryan somehow. Then I thought to myself, "How the hell did I even end up with 3 mini rrrs?!" :facepalm:
Hey Manuel! 3 Reverberators haha, you have a little dog to take care of buddy, you can't have that many Reverberators! *smile* I'm still trying to think of the perfect gangster song to use for a spectrum analyzer video for you on Instagram...

Hands down the best emails/messages i have ever gotten from musical gear companies were from ryan. his customer service is insanely amazing. and so are the pedals! i cant imagine a world without my sdd stereo and ilfdd. and the rest of the line up is stellar. pretty much the only company i would even consider rocking a brand only board because its the only company i would be able to pull it off with. DR.SCIENTIST, WE SALUTE YOU
That's really nice, Christian, thank you very much. It's awesome working with you too buddy!
Tristan wrote:I couldn't agree more, Ryan is a supergood dude, his customer service is off the charts and his pedals are incredibly awesome, way above most other boutique stuff.
Besides he's the only one who has awesome drive/fuzz, delay and modulation in his line so Dr. Scientist is the only company I know I could run a brand only board with.
Much appreciated, Tristan, thank you!
goroth wrote:Yes yes, you are all correct! I remember what turned me on to dr scientist: my never ending dirt quest. I tried a bunch of pedals over the years and the closest I got to being happy was an Emma Pisdiyauwot with an MXR 6 band eq before it (cutting bass and boosting mids) and a 6band eq after the pisdi putting the final touches on. I tried the elements, sold the eqs and haven't gassed for a distortion pedal since. I did buy a second elements though haha. Then a cosmi. And then...
Thanks a million for everything, Matt, you rule. Thanks for the amazing demo videos you've done... like the Elements one that opens with Raining Blood... what a guy!
goosekevin wrote:I haven't played any of his pedals yet (excitedly awaiting my bitquest in the mail) but if the pedal is even 1/10th as good as the customer service and general good vibes that Ryan brings I'm gonna need to buy a lot more pedals from him
Such a sweet dude making rad shit
Thanks Tom-o, hope you're having fun with that BitQuest still!
goosekevin wrote:Also I've never talked to Tanya but I assume she's rad too! Designs beautiful artwork
You know what... she is! She's really nice and she really likes all you guys too, we're always talking about my ILF buddies!
Sparrow wrote:if you take away the fact .. that Ryan IS Dr. Scientist.
i'm pretty sure. he'd be hanging on this forum anyway :joy:
super nice/ fun to chat with.
likes cool shit!
makes cool shit!
i've got a few of his pedals :!!!: ha.
:hello: thanks! Ryan and Tanya.
i really enjoy - the little details .. like the signature on the inside of the pedals .. they say .. they're to ME :bear:
Hey Josh! Thanks a million to you too for all your demo videos, you've put a ton of time into showing off your pedals really awesomely and I appreciate it bigtime. And you're right, this is definitely the forum I'd be hanging on, no other forum could even compete!

Haha thanks buddy, much appreciated!
monkeydancer wrote:Yes! My RRR is never going away, the algorithms on that thing are magic. I am on a slow (bit)quest to get more Dr Scientist pedals.
Very nice, thank you! I can't take credit for the RRR patches though, they were designed by the legendary Keith Barr of Alesis fame, he also designed the Spin FV-1.. truly brilliant guy. I just use the chips and make them work well for guitar. The BitQuest's patches are programmed by me with a lot of help from Keith's example programs plus Frank, the current distributor, also a brilliant programmer. I need a lot of programming help! *smile*
rustywire wrote:I currently have an Elements, BitQuest, ILFDD, RRR. Previous owner of a CCv3 and Tremolessence v3.
Fan of them all and the easygoing people who make such tight sounding & sharp looking tools/toys/art supplies.
They always seem to steal the thunder from any other looker-pedals within proximity.
First dealing with Ryan was trading a Malekko E600B for the CCv3.
Months later had to trade the CCv3 to get the ILFDD. Sold the Trem this past autumn to get another DMM.
2nd trade w/Ryan was a Spaceman WOW Signal for the BQ & Elements.
The RRR came in a trade with my Frostwave Resonator for a TR-707 and og Pad 8.
I will eventually replace the Trem and CC, and collect'm all (WW, Cleanness, SDD, big box RRR)
Cant wait until the next trade...and ILF run! :snax:
Hey John, long time! Nice to hear from you and thank you very much! Those were fantastic trades and awesome pedals for my collection, still have 'em both.

TundraSludge wrote:Man...I seriously have my board completely dialed in, with all my bases covered, and I STILL find myself craving a Dr. Scientist pedal. And it is undoubtedly because of threads like this. Hell, I wouldn't even care which one. He just seems like such a good dude, I find myself wanting to throw money at him.
And the fact that I recall reading that his company name is a Venture Bros. reference really seals the deal. I fucking LOVE that show!
Thanks very much! You have it right, I'm a huge Adult Swim fan! Dr. Girlfriend totally influenced my business name, always loved The Guild of Calamitous Intent too, what an awesome name.
mikeyx13 wrote:I have to agree with all the love here, never dealt with such a hands on company/family. Un-matched customer service, build quality and killer pedals, got everyone now but the Woofer Wailer and Radical Red Reverberator. Oh and the soon to be coming Heisenberg….Cannot wait to get my hands on that new world of science!
Thanks Michael, love working with you too buddy, always a pleasure!
Well guys, you deserve the ultimate form of respect and admiration.. the ultimate gesture of appreciation and servitude and honour, I give to you a Rimmer Salue:
