So, i've seen the re: Echo on the letsgocoyote site, and being somebody that owns 2 fab echo's and thoroughly loves them through and through i was wondering if maybe there was a demo video of a re: Echo cuz it sounds freakin' cool.
Or maybe some sweet Mod tips...
or maybe i should just send one of mine in and give the Mellowtone treatment....

I know there's a thing over at diy stompboxes.. I'd give u a link but since they think I am a robot they won't let me join..

you'll have to find the mods on diystompboxes. its just lifting and jumpering one resistor (to make it self oscillate) and replacing one resistor with a pot (for delay time). i dont recommend go throught he trouble of rehousing or truebypassing... the SMD construction is too fragile. just find a spot ont he case to put a hole for a pot and call it good

So i found the thread and the dude suggested bypassing the 4k7 smd with a solder blob?
And I have given it 100% feedback so it selfoscillates now.
I have the SMD version.
The middle leg of the repeat pot goes to a brown capacitor. The capacitor is then connected to a 4k7 smd resistor, witch makes up the feedback path. I just bypassed the 4k7 resistor with a solder blob and that did the trick.
i imagine a jumper wire would work.. so that means i'm gonna pull the 4k7 out and do the jump it seems. Would that be the bypass part, and than...

i take it that' where the 100k pot goes.
looking at it.. maybe solder blobs are easier
but please, let me know if that's the one <3

Wait, Eric,
so the re:Echo has 3 knobs, and the Fab has 3 knobs... where does the fourth knob come in?

I still hope he has plans for making a new digital delay like he mentioned in the new Mellowtone amp thread...
