Moosapotamus Dirty Bird- thoughts?

Post by soldersqueeze »

Hey all,
I've been having a bit of a clear out of effects recently, and re-discovered my Moosapotamus Dirty Bird. It's a kinda auto/ fixed filter/ fuzz/ glitch/ 8-bit-esque unit I got a few years back when I went through a phase of buying pedals I'd never heard of on the cheap on ebay late at night (normally while high :wha?: ), and loved it until it got knocked off my board by... well, by something (who knows what).
There's very little info on these on the net, save the old mothballed Moosapotmaus site. I was wondering if anyone has experience of these pedals, what they do with them and (not wanting to sound vulgar) what they're worth. Mine is an original build (not DIY) with a custom switch for reversing the function of the momentary switch (chirp).
So... anyone else tried one of these little boxes of insanity?

It's a modified Lastgasp Arts Labs Rattle Crow clone. I've got the RC, and it sounds harsh as fuck. Really cool, but not too practical. Always fancied building a Dirty Bird from the Moosapotamus PCB, but haven't got round to it.
