Time will tell if this was an adequate response. :cool: -E

This one is a bit stalled right now. We were on our way towards production and I decided to make a couple of last minute changes. The circuit is the balls already, but we're trying to make sure its the tits too. It's looking like it'll end up being an end of summer release.

The good news is that another project that we've been working on has made some good progress recently, so both might be dropping around the same time.


I don't want vagaries, I want facts! :mad: / :love: -E


The other project involves fuzz-y octave-y phase lasers.

I'm more curious about the other one... the one that feature delay function... what it is (if it's possible to know)?

Balls and tits are my favorite effects.

Despite lying dormant for several weeks, this thread still haunts my dreams.

Kyle, can you tell us a bit more on this?

Sorry for all the drawn out intrigue. It's annoying for us too. We were working on something and a local friend of ours hinted something on our facebook that they shouldn't have. It's just not to that point yet. We had made a lot of progress and then hit some roadblocks that have me re-evaluating some other options. That happens. The circuit does have some delay functions, but the design objective for this circuit wasn't to do "the Blackout delay" or anything definitive like that. In fact, the pedal will be more geared toward modulation type effects as was originally planned, but with some cool delay line tricks.

Obviously, we're fully concentrating on getting the Crystal Dagger out in the near term. Following that there are already some mostly-completed minor releases that will drop quickly after in the new year. The circuits for those are related to the Crystal Dagger circuit, but more stripped down and will be the lowest priced Blackout stuff to date. We also hope to introduce the Mantra V2 somewhere in there as well - which will be incorporating the popular "low-gain toggle mod".

All that to say, the big mystery circuit is still being worked on, but its not yet to where I'd even feel confident describing it as the features seem to change every time we talk about it.
