Posted this over on her forum, too.


People likes their duals...anyone ever done a triple??

Like, take a Ruiner and an OK, put them each on a footswitch in an enclosure like this:


Then put a DB on a toggle (it's a good always-on pedal, I hear), and have the Ruiner have a Ruiner/DB toggle?

Shoot, while we're at it, throw a clean blend (or clean and dirty volumes, a la TAFM) on the sucker. Is there gonna be room in this sort of enclosure?

Does the OK have any mod toggles available?

Wait. I think I see a flaw in my design.

SOMEONE MAKE IT WORK.

I don't want one of those hoggy Fuzzhugger triple footswitch enclosures. OOO. Maybe an Eau Claire Thunder sized??

Of the first people that come to mind to make something like this work only one is likely available
and that'd be McSpunkle, Scruffies busy with his real life and stans pretty busy with work these days
but Spunks doesn't do anything, ever
I know he mods Devis and is familiar with her designs and all, I'd talk to him about it if you're interested.
It's totally possible

So to be clear, you want...
Ruiner &/or Ok as the main effects with each on a 3pdt. You would also like to add the DB to the circuits as well, likely at the beginning, with a toggle instead of a 3pdt. Then, you want a toggle that swaps out the ruiner with the DB?

This would allow: ok, ruiner, ok+ruiner, ok+ruiner+db, ok+db, ruiner+db, ok+db. You would actually be getting an ok+db setting twice with the ruiner/db toggle. What I would do instead (if anything) is make that toggle swap out the order of 2 of the effects. The db for instance could be put at the beginning or end of the "chain."

This is totally doable, and with one of the smaller enclosures like you wish. You're looking at needing real-estate for (2)3dpt, (2)toggles, (6)pots, (3)boards, (2)jacks, 9v, leds. The 1590bb is what the disaster transport, and many FH pedals are built in. Can be done in one of those but I'd prob get one of the slightly taller ones (same board space will be taken up, and switches will be up higher towards your foot).

I think this would be optimal. If I only had one choice I would put the DB at the end due to Devi's circuits propensity for getting gated and spitty when the imput gain is too hot. I think that a DB at the end could really smooth the whole thing out nicely, but if the option for either/or is there it could make some cool spasmodic-static-fuzzies when placed in front. YMMV.

I have a different volunteer for the build

Jero, sorta close.

I want the Ruiner and DB circuits independent. The Ruiner is simply two stacked DBs. They can be modded to turn into just one DB (by simply bypassing the second DB PCB).

I was thinking of putting the DB (by itself) on a toggle instead of stomp (to save on space), and have the order be:

Ruiner -> OK -> DB

Which gives options:
Ruiner
OK
DB
Ruiner -> DB
DB -> OK -> DB
Ruiner -> OK -> DB
Ruiner -> OK
OK -> DB
DB -> OK

Of course I'd like to try out an OK first. I haven't played one myself, but they appeal greatly to me! Could someone loan one?..

The OK is my favorite, and thus; the best DE pedal
I miss mine dearly...I need to talk to the carrot chair about buying it back...

All you really need to know is that it comes alive in the latter half of the contour sweep and that if you run something else into it...well it has alchemy-style properties

I might have the hook-up! I borrow an OK to stack with the Ruiner, and in return, lend my Ruiner so he can stack with his OK!

I <3 tigerbass. He's like my big brother!

I find this interesting somewhat. Sound like the most fun.

Essentially an OK and 3 DBs in one box. Think you guys can handle that much awesome?

See if you can first.

Oh I think I could handle that

Thinking... thinking... actually I think I could pull that off now if I wanted to.... lets see... Workhorse fuzz [set to DB] > OK > DB... I'm gonna have to try that!

i got two fuzzhugger dbs and the ruiner>dn twin and sammy's ok here so i guess i could tone it down to that...

'corse if I really wanted to be evil I'd pull out my Hog's Foot and blast the OK and DB, Hog's Foots are bassier and louder then a DB
