Sousa - ****. YESH. so good. awesome inner bummer interior too!

Jeff Le Moote - if the Polytopal or Four Eyes don't work for you hit me up? Poly mebbe but DEFO have had my eye on the Nerdy Glass Wearing Insult Machine for AWHILE. nuffin against Polytope, just dunno how much a chorus dood i am. SECHSY though.

me - MOOHAH! Cioks and a fresh baked buttloaf (trying to get that to catch on) of knobs from Mammoth came in! and according to the internet, Dan's Pimped Out Glory Boxes (ew) should be here Saturday, PT-Pro tomorrow. and placed order for a (horrific according to Mssr. Farrow, BEAUTIFUL IN THE EYES OF GAWD AND MAN according to me customy colored) DMC-3 for TL. yay!

[Jeff Moote]

Polytope is not going ANYWHERE soon. I have only played through it for 10 minutes and it is full of win.

I'll let you know on the Four Eyes. Haven't had a chance to plug it in yet, and I want to run it up against some other fuzzes to see which ones stay and go. So many good fuzzes, so little board space.

I saw those boxes Dann whipped up for you and wow. Just wow. So good. I have my own project on the go with Mr. W; more on this later

[MSUsousaphone]

Nice haul this week, gentlemen. Let me know about the Four Eyes, Jeff. I mean, let Behnderz have dibs, but I'd to hear some of it. The US's fuzz is so awesome....that thing just really intrigues me. If you get a TL, that board won't be a secondary board for long.

What's this fresh baked of buttloafing mammoth you got, Behndy? I'm sure you already told me....just the new name interests me more....is that wrong?

[behndy]

you love it you dirty little water bog. opened up, cd is awesome, hot sauce is FIRE IN THE HOLE GOODNESS. thanks menger!

Mammoth is a parts site, i just ordered like 50ish knobs in about 20 different designs/colors. wanna change some on some pedz i got i think.

MootyMoot - oh yeah. Dan stuff. SO GOOD. feel you on the Board Space Importance. if you don't click with Le Eyes i'll take it off ya though.

****. and if i figure out your address, might just take it off ya even if you DO clickety. RARRRRRRRR.

[DeltaPhoenix]

Yeah Man, Sousa's Band is awesome. Did you see the little pic of your other avatar I drew?

[Dark Barn]

Going: SS/BS gated TAFM, EHX Bassballs, EBS Octabass

Coming: W&C Pickle Pie B, Darkglass B3K (tomorrow )

Oh I did not mean secondary in such a way that it is less important. Just that I'd get a second board separate from all the octave/fuzz/filter/pitch type stuff. No doubt the Timeline board would actually see more use.

Will let you know for sure. I had a chance to play a bit and it's definitely unlike all the other fuzzes. I am imagining a Four Eyes/Unpleasant Surprise/Randy's Revenge sequence on my board once Randy is re-released. Ohhh yeah.

[behndy]

yah. mad waiting on one of them Randy Rands.

how would one compare FourEyeballah to Unexpected Butt-Sechs?

[Jeff Moote]

In no way am I claiming to accurately describe how it actually works, but to my ears/understanding the Four Eyes takes the signal, sends it through 3 band pass filters each of which has its own fuzz/gain control. The frequency knob sweeps all 3 filters' centers, while the switch has 3 Q options for the filters. Sweeping the freq with an expression pedal sounds a bit like a wah (with fuzz obviously), but not really because instead of one BP filter you have 3.

It doesn't have a ton of low end, but you can go from pretty rumbly to screeching feedback (though surprisingly controllable) with a sweep through the frequency.

Interesting, for sure.

[behndy]

hmmmmm. innnnnnterrrresssstinnnng.

in that case, GIMME.

[Jeff Moote]

I caved. Enough stuff going, so I placed my Timeline order. The waiting begins!

[caeman]

Fire the "night" arrows!
