Size-wise is more than what i wanted but at the same time i have always been really curious about it, anyway probably you'll see it popping up in B/S/T in a few weeks, once i played it properly.
Meanwhile i keep an eye open for a Molecular Disruptor/wait for the next batch. And, in case, the Rubberneck is still pretty easy to find at a decent price, so for the "other" delay i'm settled for now..

The question mark remains for the analog one, the idea of rehousing the 616 with jacks on top keeps coming back to me, but i'd prefer to find a new pedal.
Rubberneck is analog BTW. I wouldn't be afraid of the controls. It's pretty simple in practice but you won't be disappointed with a Molecular Disruptor.

Have to repeat this: the rubberneck is indeed analog. Very much so actually. Meaning that the analog-ness of the repeat can be tweaked (gain/tone). Which, for the price, is extremely rare on analog modulation delays with tap tempo. I'm extremely picky when it comes to the flavour of the repeats of my analog delays, they're always too dark or not dark enough :facepalm:

Now I can dial in cleaner repeats when I'm playing with lotsa fuzz all the time, and make things murky and mushy when I'm playing clean. There's just nothing so musical and inspiring as a dark warbly delay :drool:

The controls aren't THAT difficult, it's just that you can't crank the tone/gain controls and approach the pedal like it's a DM-2 :)

Yeah the rubberneck could be the right option but it's bigger than what i need, if i was on the point to leave just one delay on the board (WHO AM I KIDDING?) I'd all over it beacuse it seems to have everything to satisfy me and stay "simple". Plus if you say that the repeats are dark in the right way it tickles me more because i've had a bunch of analog delays in the past but only got satisfied with the 616.
