Yeah I've definitely thought about it. It's a DIY circuit that someone on DIYStompboxes put together a few years ago. It's the second one that I built and a little stripped back from the first one that I did. Hbomb has the first one, it had a rotating selector switch to control how the signal fed back into itself (100%, 500k pot, none) but could have also been expanded to have light control over that as well.

I want to breadboard the next one that I make so that I can mod it. I want to to a clean switch, for 'cleaner' repeats, along with a switch for extended spread time (hbombs goes into crunchy static lofi super repeats at the max setting)

Yeah, that sounds super cool - also a tone knob would be sweet. Would the rotating selector switch affect the intensity of the oscillating feedback, or its level in the mix?

Tone knob would be cool too, definitely. I think it sounds scratchy in that video but that was through a 10" speaker. Through a 12" is bassier. Rotating selector was for the intensity on hbombs

Yeah, dude, keep making those SHÜGEIZUs! I'd jump on that one for sale if I could, so I'll definitely be wanting one when the funds are available.

Yeah dude. I definitely want to toy around with it. It's simple enough that it leaves a lot to be toyed around with as well. Theres a giant thread on DIYStompboxes about it where people have done mods too, I want to try them!

Absolutely. And the doubling effect is super-cool. Only thing that would be cooler is if you could have two separate tones going - one for the "primary" and another for the "double." I bet you could REALLY thicken up the sound that way...

i couldn't not jump on that. sounded sick even through the little 10".
i love how it seems to morph between like flanger-like sounds and straight fuzz and distinct doubling on its own. the oscillation sounded sweet too.
i would have thought having a polytope and some crazy fuzzes and delays already this might be redundant but that doesn't seem to be the case at all.

I totally want to make some more of them sometime. It's a fun build and I got the vero layout to be decently small, if I did a bare-bones version like the one that sold.
