Audible Disease is releasing a distortion/synth blend pedal

Not affiliated here, just a fan of their pedals. Very unique, and the build quality is top notch!
Some of you may already know about Audible Disease (
http://www.audibledisease.com) and the crazy noise-making effects and synths they build.
They just announced on their facebook page a couple new pedals, one being this beast - the Palindrome PD-1.
The top set of knobs is synth which affects the input signal, and the bottom is a high gain distortion circuit with an oscillation knob, a decimation knob, and a white noise knob!
The best part is that the top section can be blended into the bottom section for total sonic insanity!
Here's a link to a high res version of the instruction sheet: http://db.tt/UYtdphWE

How the hell do you step on that stomp switch? It looks like it's right on top of those knobs!

I've ordered one, so I'll be sure to report back with how it works.
I already have a Convulsion distortion, and love all of the wild tones I can coax out of it. I can't wait to see what this thing'll do to my guitar signal!

Footswtich is just wrong, but the pedal sounds alright to me.

i would think this unit was made for table top tweekers in mind more than guitar/bass action.

but hey i say use whatever want, however you want.
im sure it wouldnt be too horrible placing the unit horizontal with the bypass facing you.

I can only imagine engaging the pedal with my bare big toe...otherwise those knobs are going to move.

Perhaps they could have used a different enclosure? GAWD! That footswitch!

the Convulsion is loads of fun. his feedback looper is super clean too.
but that thing. is fucking UGLY. and a travesty of design.
probably gonna sound really cool though.
