effects in TREADLE/WAH ENCLOSURES...

so I'm looking for more strange pedals (ie not Wah effects) in Wah enclosures or in treadle form.

things like the MASF Swan Song (ring mod) or the MXR Variphase (both of which I already have)

a delay in a wah enclosure would be cool - like this one, the OK Delay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bA-qGJWGUdI - anyone know where this guy went?

The Moldy Spore is dope but too expensive for what it is. What you guys got?

**anyone know a company that rehouses effects into treadles/wah enclosures???**

ILF user Skullservant's made some delays into wah shells -- and I'm sure there's other peeps in the Shark Tank who could do you up a custom gig like you're describing.

Skully does work under Dirge Electronics.

I have!

More than happy to stick a delay circuit in a wah enclosure

I think Fuzzrocious made a delay in a wah enclosure as well?

As for other effects, BEZ had the Street Sweeper Phaser that was in a wah shell

Kay made a fuzz, tremolo, and bass boost in treadle enclosures.

The old Morley Tel-rays - they put everything in huge chromed treadle pedals. I've got the Pro phaser - treadle control assignable to sweep or speed plus pots for depth and centre frequency. Nice. The flanger looks great.

so would someone be able to recreate the OK Delay then thats in that video? I have an idea for a minor improvement on it, being, that instead of having the knob to switch between repeats/time have the top have a switch to change between them (leaving the heel still being the on switch) - make sense?

The original price for that thing was absurd if I recall, like 350$ or something, I would hope it could be at a more manageable price though.

thoughts?

I've also always wanted a bit pedal in a treadle, where you can wash between the signal being cleaner and more degraded, with a heel/toe switch to change between some settings.

so...I am obsessed with pedals on treadles, way more fun than bending over to change the pedal settings.

The MXR Variphase...the treadle controls the rate, correct? That's cool. The orange enclosure is :love: too.
I have a BEZ Street Sweeper treadle-phaser where the treadle manually controls the sweep.
Very useful for filtering fuzz pedals and finding their resonant sweetspot or giving them a real throaty cocked-wah sound, especially the simple circuits that lack tone controls.

It's currently for sale in BST...

I had the Dirge delay in the wah shell and it was a fucking phenomenal pedal. Washes of oscillation all day, err day.

Also, I had the Digitech Space Station for years, and it does a ton of crazy effects. I've since downgraded to the Digitech EX-7 primarily for money purposes.

The other one that comes to mind for me is the GigFX Chopper, which is a hard tremolo in a treadle.

I made a Gristleizer in a treadle enclosure for Secret Santa one year. SO fun.
More stuff in treadle box's!
