NPD - Earthquaker time!

Grand Orbiter Phase Machine day, thanks to the Tonefactor Valentine's Sale!

Looks great, sounds greaterer. There's a ton of mad sounds on tap, still coming to terms with what the controls do (in true b00teek style there are no instructions). The sweep is a bit lopsided which makes for some fun, seems to have a faster drop-off. And the throbbing white LED is like amazing and shit! Only downside is a bit of LFO clock noise but I can deal with that, I do own a Flanger Hoax after all.
Thanks to Brad@Tonefactor and Earthquaker Devices for the cool pedalage. Next on the shopping list, the Tone Reaper for mo' fuzz fun.

hey i just got one of these too. (and a Tone Reaper by the way, i love it)
I'm having some hard time dialing it in, it sounds great though.
i got it to replace my Homebrew Psilocybe, which didnt happen because it is completely different. not anywhere near as warm.
idk if this is a problem with a lot of phasers or what, but both my Psilocybe and Grand Orbiter make a wicked loud pop noise when i step on the switch. which really pisses me off. My Moogerfooger doesnt do it, but its a completely different switch.

Nope, hadn't heard that but I suspected there would be a new version at some stage. Sweeeet...
