Official Darkglass Club Pt. IV- The Revolution!!

I've been forgotten...


Got a B7K and hopefully a VMT someday...

 

Don't remember...

 

I suggest a search, search for #95, #94 etc, posted by gregmon79, this thread only. You'll find the missing names.

Just got my VD. Serial # 33. Anyone know of a clump of "off" pedals? Just want to make sure that serial # 31, 32, 34, 35, etc... Haven't all had some common problems. I'm sure its killer though!

 

I can't even.

 

:rolfmao:

 

I should have caught that. Imagine if the beat buddy had been introduced as the "the clap" instead.

Guitar shop owner: Anything come in yesterday?

Guitar shop clerk: I got a case of the clap.

Owner: Take the day off, kid.

 

Ok, on a serious note, since there is a warning about power draw for the VD, just wanted to check that a "normal hookup" to the Voodoo PP2 will be okay?

 

Any 9 or 12 volt regulated supply should work fine. Just don't use the unregulated option on the PP-2. Are you having problems with yours haven't heard of any V-Deluxe issues yet...

 

I'd like a number - VMT owner here.

I absolutely love my VMT and have been spending way too much time wondering whether it makes sense to add any more Darkglass to my board. I am thinking a Duality is probably the best call. I have a reasonably small board (a Pedaltrain Jr) where I go: Boss OC-2 -> VMT -> Moog MF-101 filter -> MXR script Phase 90 -> EHX Memory Boy.

Sometimes I run a clone of the Mutron Octave divider in the place of the OC-2 and sometimes a Mutron III in the place of the MF-101 (all depending if I have access to 110 volt power or not). Pretty sure the mini-Frooger Delay will take the place of the Memory Boy when it finally comes out. So to me I have much more room for a fuzz pedal than an overdrive. Especially since IMHO the VMT can handle driven tones very well on its own.

I do kinda wish I had waited a little longer to buy the VMT as the Deluxe came out soon after I received my VMT and a few of the features (namely the direct out - could be super useful sometimes).

BTW - I just noticed that I have been running my VMT on 12 volts. I had an AnalogMan Prince of Tone in that position until I put the VMT in. Is this a good idea or a bad? I just clicked the dip switch on the Fueltank back to 9 volts - but do you guys like the sound of the VMT better on 12 volts? I thought it sounded brilliant where it was but don't want to hurt the pedal.

 

As soon as my VMT arrives from BassEFX I'll be in.

 

Is there a way to have the DI on the B7K remain active when the pedal is switched off?

 

I thought it was.

EDIT: Unless you have the early Finnish-made version, then I don't think it's possible.

 

Yeah the US one's DI is always on.

 

But there is also no benefit to run them at 12v is what I am reading in your post. Is that right? It is no problem for me to run it at 9v. None whatsoever. I asked because I have had many pedals in the past that benefited from the extra juice - usually in the way of more headroom.
