What I learned with this layout is that it's even darker than the v2 and has more clock noise. Really discouraging at first but I'm glad to know it now and I've realized what needs changing and what I did wrong to deserve this setback.... and everything else about it's perfect so it's still progress, although I need to do circuit tweaks and a new layout with all new flippin reference designators.
I know this overhaul is taking a crazy long time but this pedal just has to be extra perfect right out the gate... it's gonna be worth it!

Lol Ryan this pedal has been kicking your butt for a long time. You're the man though and you make some damn fine pedals so keep at it!
Can't wait for zombies in my chorus!

We will wait until it's perfect.
No rush Ryan... my V2 is so awesome.

fuck you guys and your patience.
(very cool to let everybody know what's going on and stick with the hard build. you the man.)

That's because you don't have a V2.

People who don't even LIKE chorus are gonna want this pedal.

I think kirby has vanished. So has patience.
Coincidence? Nope.

Shiiiit. I've been holding out hope that there would be an announcement in time for my birthday.
Oh well. I don't mind when Ryan takes his time because he makes the best sounding stuff ever!

Thanks guys!
It's like Eminem in that movie where he had to ride a bull for 8 seconds or whatever... *Eminem voice* I've only got one shot, one oppahtunity!
It's too complicated and tough of a build to not have it perfect right from the start, it would be a big disaster otherwise and we just can't afford another release where I have to make big mods to it or mod a bunch that went out too early... I can't go through all that with this!
It's really close now too.. it's just a matter of balancing the clock noise/high frequency response of the circuit now and I'm gonna work on it this weekend as much as I can. That's the bottom line though.. it's gonna be worth the wait bigtime! *smile*

Just release it and call it the cosmic clock - featuring noise. It also has an unwanted chorus effect that you haven't been able to dial out...

Haha yeah! I could release an amazing noise pedal... you wouldn't believe the hiss and squeaks you can get out of a BBD chip if you push it hard and don't filter it, it's nuts. I never thought about that before but to the right crowd a crazy white noise generator with rate control, tone control, squeak control, could go over very well!

you just let us know which internal pots to tweak for the secret alt version
