Recently, I traded a Supercollider BEAST for just a Supercollider v2.
The prior owner of the Supercollider used masking tape to keep track of settings in the studio. This SC was one of the earlier V2s, the decal was not as adhered, with the tape, off came the decal. Sucks, but eh.
Mark (chief proprietor of Earthbound) is re-decaling it, but to the newer higher better standards, for nothin!
Oh, he's also awesome because he made the Supercollider, which is nothing short of amazing

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jun 2007 Location: Adelaide, Australia | | I love it but my only complaint was those knobs were so easy to move, once I dialed in a perfect tone I would lose it again easily,... ended up going with a hyperion in its place for smallness/two knob easy to find sweet spot...
that said its an awesome pedal and does ultra low doom like no tomorrow

Anyone have an email address for this guy? How do I order? Dropping comments on his blogspot/myspace are getting me nowhere.

The second version traded the mids switch for a knob. (that's the one pictured at the top of the thread) He still makes one like this with different graphics.
The Beast version has two more knobs which control oscillators built into the pedal. |

I get the impression he's quite the busy guy and pedals aren't just made-to-order (well, they are, but the available catalog is quite limited); they have runs and the BEAST is going to be a "seasonal" pedal. I've also heard chatter of the Centurion nearing completion and a couple other crazy things being conceived. Quote:

I wasn't very impressed with the "fit and finish" to say the least. |

But he's fixing it for free, so I'm not complaining. And he is the creator of the holy Supercollider

| | | Maybe it's because the Beast is made in batches?
I ordered my supercollider a month ago and it shipped after two weeks. Then the damn ashcloud from Iceland delayed it in shipping, but yesterday I finally picked it up from my local post office.
And oh dear - this pedal rocks! My neighbour complained last night about the - and I quote - 'unbearable noise'. 
I think I'm in love..  |

My Supercollider...I have no clue where it is and it's quite disconcerting.

If the last scenario is the case, then be patient or send another e-mail. He's not very good at replying fast, but he will reply eventually. In my case he forgot to send me a T&T number after he shipped it. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
