The Chorus of the Cosmos... first demo page 34!

[McSpunckle]

Sorry for being late here, but this looks like, as the kids say, the shit.

Especially those yummy yellow capacitors.

[Ryan]

Haha yeah I want to eat caps too... I think they taste like licorice all-sorts though... which I love!

have you considered doing a giveaway (that may or may not be totally rigged in my favor)?

[MaxMaps]

I just sold some gear so in the bank it goes until this comes out.

WOOF MAN. JUST FUCKING WOOF.

You know, I've got lots of stuff to giveaway.. I like giving away my protos so I'll do that soon with the Trem and Elements, I just haven't had time to get them into proper working order to be sent out. But yeah, I be considering the giveaways...

Aww you've got a few months to spend that on new toys! *smile* I still haven't made a first prototype but the pcb is half ready.. just haven't had any time lately with the new Trems and Elements work...

Ryan, what will this Ultimate CC will have that the current one don't (for those who only have a mono setup)?

[Ryan]

It'll have the hold feature, higher power handling, higher headroom (even at 9VDC), a phase inverter switch for the wet signal, and expression control for rate and mix. Otherwise it sounds pretty much the same as the current CC. One other thing is that the volume controls the dry and wet signals, that's a change from the current version, using the same output volume booster as the RRR so you can use the pedal as a clean boost too.

What is the hold mode and the phase inverter doing (I'm not very technical)?

[Ryan]

The hold mode is the thing the Tremolessence does where you hold down the stomp switch and the tremolo effect fades in, then you let go and the effect goes away. Latch mode or momentary mode are other words for it, I call it hold.

Inverting the phase of the wet signal just gives you another option of chorus flavour as it puts the dry signal and the wet signal either in phase or out of phase with each other and both sound cool, plus it changes the stereo spread of the effect which is cool, so it's fun in mono and stereo.

[jrmy]

Oh my. Oh, oh my.

Now that I've gotten into chorus progressively deeper from my Arion Stereo Chorus (best $20 ever spent) to my EQD Sea Machine, I think this Ultimate Cosmi is going to seal the deal. I'll have to get one, if only so I can work up an UBERCHORUS board where all you hear is the swooshing of the waves and the cosmos.

I bet it would be pretty trippy.

[Ryan]

Chorus rules, hey buddy! I think you should do an all chorus board too, I don't think you'd regret it at all, ever. I know the guy in your avatar pic digs chorus.. he looks like he's listening to the new CC right now actually...(that's the face I make when I hear stereo chorus)

Hilarious!

Actually, ol' Doc Brown is making that face because he's imagining the sound of every pedal represented on ILF TURNED ON AT ONCE!!!!!

[jskadiang]

How's this coming along, are zombie finishes a-coming?

[Ryan]

first proto pcb ordered on Monday, booyah! I'd say it's a guaranteed fact of reality that the first finish will be green and black zombies, you can take that to the bank!
