I noticed that too. Seems like every time I check the site it's got a new layout and some of the links don't work and things that are discontinued suddenly have working pages from one link and not from another. Dude needs to trade a pedal to someone for some website work.

Exactly!
I REALLY want a Memory Loss, but it's not available? After being listed 6-ish months ago? :(

Hes really good about emailing back and answering any questions. Hes expressed frustration with the site in past emails. Im sure between R&D, building, answering emails and orders, and playing music, the website is done in spare time.

Did seppuku used to have a subforum here or was his stuff just sold through fuzzhugger?

Im waiting on news about the radio freq.

His stuff was sold through fuzzhugger. The dpm2, now the digit, is an amazing sounding pedal. I want one. His demos sound awesome of all the new stuff, however, it's usually multiple pedals and hard to tell what's happening sometimes. I do like the sounds of all of them though.

SOOOOOO I can finally comment on this stuff!

Pumpkin Pieces gave me a Memory Loss for Secret Santa. At first I couldn't get the hang of it, I'd never played a delay like it, but I was trying to use it like a normal delay, which it is NOT.
It does not have a mix control. It is 100% wet signal 100% of the time. It can be LOUD. Thankfully it's got a volume control.
But tonight I found the SECRET!!! The starve knob set pretty high makes the delay start stuttering and glitching with the envelope controlled gate. So when you strum softly it starts going into self oscillating delay maddness, but when you strum hard it gates and stops and goes to clean signal. It's fucking crazy and awesome.
Secondly, I opened it up. It's PT2399 based, so I don't think there are any hard to source parts in there...
Still playing around with it tonight though, so I'll report back with more findings. Below are my settings to get the envelope glitch delay:

Strange. My memory loss had an extra knob. I played with It for a month, tried to get it to work for me and gave up. I couldn't get the envelope set right and it did NOT play well with any of my pedals. I had to use it clean and use the distortion the ped created.
