Let's go with heresy: got a UA Enigmatic '82 (fake Dumble construction set)

Couldn't say no, been tempted for a while just to see what I could do with one. The 'Dumble construction set' in the deep dive is what sold me on it, but sadly I can't play with that for a few days because I apparently have NO USB-C cables in house. Go figure. Got it running as it was out of the box without deep dive, and initial report is that it does in fact do what it says on the tin (and far more than bluz lawyering).
Harmonics are batshit stupid, that is when you hit it with a HM-2W.
And we won't talk about the Test Pattern from Hell/Pest Tattern frying into it.
it smooths out some of the gated choppiness there quite nicely and gives a little more playable envelope (and triggers batshit harmonics if you are so inclined as well).
Is it worth $350 (sale)? Probably...but I'm the boy who has everything already and I'm not trying to get a 'one rig to rule them all'.
Running with a fake tweed Deluxe in stereo is glorious as well.
Will update once I have the editor running
