I should be getting my Capricorn+ in 2-3 weeks.

PEDAL IS COMPLETE. NEW PHOTOS BELOW.


Here are a few in-progress shots. I had Arjan move the DC jack to the top in order to conserve space, which required the LED light to be lowered slightly
(and a few other adjustments with the electronics :smug:)

I'll be posting more once I receive them (and soundclips)

The enclosure is currently being custom airbrushed with my design, more photos to follow soon.

So this is a Mammoth clone?

From the Arger site:

"The harmonic structure of your sound can be radically altered using the "FEEL" knob. It adjusts the pulse width of the waveform. In the leftmost position, the waveshape is quite symmetrical which produces a smooth creamy sound. Turning it up slightly introduces lovely intermodulation distortion. Turning it clockwise narrows the waveshape into asymmetrical pulses, making the tone reedier and brassier. This also introduces an unusually smooth 'gating' action, which gives you an absolutely eerie silence between notes."

From the Zvex website:

"In the leftmost position, the waveshape is quite symmetrical which produces a smooth creamy sound. Turning it up slightly introduces lovely intermodulation distortion. Turning it clockwise narrows the waveshape into asymmetrical pulses, making the tone reedier and brassier. This also introduces an unusually smooth 'gating' action, which gives you an absolutely eerie silence between notes."

Hm, that's sort of lazy on their part.
