This first finish is a navy blue sparkle with silver text and chrome knobs and a white on/off LED with blue oscillator LED.

The features for it are:

>9 - 18VDC operation
>bulletproof reverse polarity protection
>soft touch true bypass relay based switching
>stereo input and output with separate audio paths
>mono input stereo output operation possible too
>stereo output choice of sync (unison tremolo) or pan (left then right tremolo)
>expression control of rate and depth (works in stereo)
>'hold' mode allows foot- switch to be used as momentary engage for effect with adjustable rise time (works in stereo)
>5mm led on/off indicator, 3mm led always on oscillator status indicator
>huge range of rate
>active treble control with +/- 15dB of boost and cut
>lots of volume available, can be used as clean boost/treble boost pedal in 'hold' mode
>square and triangle waveforms with widely adjustable symmetry/pulse width
>analog signal path and oscillator with digital bypass switching
>hand-rolled LED/LDR optocouplers (nothing sounds as good as home made :p )
>top mounted input/output/power jacks with side mounted expression jacks
>new enclosure (125B) is approximately 5mm wider than previous version (increase is the width of a pencil)

Thanks again for all the discussions and ideas and patience about this build and I hope you guys dig it! I'll get cracking on some demo videos soon, I just have to focus on getting some orders out now to pay for all this stuff.

The MSRP will be $250 and this weekend I'll make the first batches for our number one American and Canadian stores, Analogue Haven in California and Axe And You Shall Recieve in Ontario.

The next finish will be shipped to us next week (by UPS! ha) and it's kind of an old style design.. it's a neon green box with a big white waveform across the middle with black text and black knobs.

I like the design a lot.
I already have a tremolo in my amp...
But I'm sure this is a lot better.
Can't wait for the demo.

Haha that's a great old pic! Back in 2006 Sam and I took a bunch of pictures of the pedals, before we had a website, and we put the pedals on fake schematics of electronics gibberish.

Those old clear coats sure had some room for improvement hey!

Thanks for checking out the new trem, guys!
