Its OK, I finally found a Polytope.

So I've been messing around with this a bit more and holy fuck. Expression pedal into it makes it go CRAZY. hahaha. This pedal is so cool. Dark Barn I hope you love this thing man. If my new one gets here in time, I'll send you that and keep the one I've been messing with. So you can have untouched love.

One weird thing about the Lastgasp. Why do the instructions say to unlug the input and power supply from it if not used for an extended period of time? It says stuff about the battery dying but then reiterates the point as if it has something else to do with. Weird.

Oh and one minor annoyance. One of the pots has a slight noise when turning it. Could be a dirty pot, could be bad design, it's not terrible, but I'm really anal. HAH. Anal.

Could be an inherent part of the circuit?

Anyone heard from these guys? I was trying to see what the wait is or preorder a Misty Cave, and my emails are bouncing back...

By these guys do you mean LAL, or Perfect Circuit Audio that has been mentioned with the sale a few posts back?

LAL, sorry…

But damn! There one is. Thanks!

and ordered…get my random resonance dronish delay thingy on...

I've sent some mails back and forth with Hirofumi (LAL) before, and he answered pretty fast. Very kind, funny guy, definitely should have a Shark Tank at some point. But he's an one man operation, so I guess he's busy right now or something. I know he planned to release some new pedals late last year, so he might still be working on those.

At least some kind of reverb. I think he might have mentioned some sort of tremolo as well? I think he said that there wouldn't be any new fuzzes. But I might be mistaken, this was a couple of months ago. Whatever it is, I'm sure it will be awesome and give me GAS.

He does really good customer support though, and gladly answered my semi-retarded questions. Think I'll just mail him a link to this thread, see if we can get him to chime in.

Lastgasp prototypes were mentioned on their facebook page back in the summer. As stated above a reverb and tremolo seems most promising, and seen a comment from lastgasp stating possible releases around christmas. I've been optimistically waiting on their take of some verb. I've been reverbless for months now and hoping for some news on this project.

Atleast for the time being perfect circuit has plenty of Misty Cave's, but with my luck, I'll blow my load on one, and their mythical verb will be released, and I'll be broke.

So, Hirofumi got back to me. He's reading the forum and this thread, actually. And he thinks it's great! Anyway, new designs got delayed, but should be out in a few months. Also, he says hi to all LAL users/fans/lovers. Yeah. (He might join in himself.)

Dear Hirofumi: Keep being awesome (and make more Gomorrah's. I want one, I need one!). The Cyber Psychic is one of my all time favourite pedals and I don't understand why more people haven't got one. Finally...joooooin uuuuus.

I think The Edge uses it, actually.

But it is one helluva pedal, need to fiddle more with it.

I had to google that, haha. He actually did, back in '09. He does have some cool pedals still though.
