Put in a order for a solar system one this morning. Thanks a lot Ryan!

You know what would be cool (but probably never happen)?
Reverb with an effects loop!
You can have super tweakable Flerb! or Pherb! or Fuzzerb! or Cherb!
Or you could EQ the shit out of it...

Both awesome ideas! I like the effects loop idea a lot, a lot of cool sounds could come from that idea! I definitely think some eq control over the reverb signal is important, that will be part of the upgraded Reverberator for sure.

When do you figure the prototypes for the Big Box Reverberators will be ready? November/December?

Probably later since he hasn't finished the miniberators yet. (Any more proto photos?)

B-man, we're still quite a ways away from the upgraded Reverberators I'm afraid.... Nych is exactly right, we're still totally wrapped up in the miniberators. I've spent the last two weeks working with about a dozen pcb manufacturers on a quote for the production of the boards. I'm still really hoping that we'll be able to place our order for the boards this week, before we leave for our trip and won't be able to make any progress for 2 weeks but that might be wishful thinking on my part, it's a long process involving a lot of money and work.
We're still grinding prices and details about the manufacturing but it's nearly over... I'm sure we'll be going with a Canadian company based out of Ontario. Our plan is still to get the miniberators out to stores this fall then retire the current Reverberator then I'll get cracking on the upgrades to the Reverberator. This whole quoting process has taken longer than I thought but I'm sure it's nearly over!

Quick question, what's the difference between the miniberators and the current RRR? I understand that one is smaller, but are there less reverb options?

I believe the mini is the same circuit as the current RRR, but made by someone else(?)and housed in a cute and cuddly enclosure!

Nych, there's absolutely no difference at all between a miniberator and the current Reverberator. Same sounds, same components (just SMD versions), same hardware... I didn't change a darn thing, just stuffed it into a smaller box that won't have the hand-finished art.

Thanks very much, Aaron! (And sorry if your name isn't Aaron, I'm making a leap here) There's only 4 of that finish out in the world and I really like it too.
I noticed your location is the moon and I was wondering if you'd mind if I ask a few questions about it...
Is it really hollow? Have you been to the pyramids there? Are some craters really illuminated and move around? Is it 4.5 billion or 5.5 billion or actually less than 100 thousand years old? Who are the massive monuments/towers for? Is it really a space ship? Is the dark side even cooler than Pink Floyd thought?
Thanks again, we really appreciate it!

aaron is a good guess, but it's benjamin!
the moon is very desolate and hollow... no pyramids and the craters do as they please. the moon is very picky about her age and claims she's still in her teens. no towers or spaceships just yet, and you'll just have to cross over to find out about the darkside.
i can tell you one thing, we do love us some good reverb on the moon.

These are the last 23 pedals that will have two different last names signed on the inside... heads up Montreal! TĂȘtes vers le haut, MontrĂ©al! (Apologies if that says something weird, we don't have a fancy translating police box like certain other doctors...)
This is the last batch until the end of September or so, we're leaving next week for a wedding adventure!
