3Leaf Audio Club - Episode 2

Has anyone heard updates on the availability of Octabvre MKIII pedals coming up any time soon? I need to make room on my board and downsizing my Tim-tuned MKI to an MKIII would get the job done, but alas the only one I see available is an overpriced one on Reverb.
It sounds as though Spencer is on the case once more, so hopefully by the end of the year. I managed to grab mine around Christmas of last year, I think? Maybe the year before. Time is weird.

I wiiish. Do you typically use the FX loop for both(octave & fuzz)?
I keep all my octaves, OD and Fuzz, interior fxloops, and one compressor (first in the loop) within my chromatrons loop, after is just eq pedals, filters and one compressor. I sometimes input into the return on the chrome to use it as a wet/dry blend with all those as well

So you run an FX loop within the FX loop of the Chrome? What do you use for that?

OD, Drive and Fuzz control - dirt sounds better in the fxloop, and that sounds better behind the envelope trigger
Everything on the bottom and top row are in the chromatrons loop, the 3 dirts in the middle are in their corresponding filterfxs

I've got my whole chain in the fx loop of my v1 Wonderlove: Octabvre, You're Doom, MBD2, and a CE-2w. I think the fuzz is the key bit, but the other stuff sounds great there, too.
I know(in regards to the fuzz)! I’ve got a Malekko Diabolik and a TFR that I use interchangeably with an OC-2 and an envelope.

WOW I don’t even know where to begin with that board lol. Have you tried the Xotic X blender vs the Broughton FFXL?

No, I was about to get one when my first attempt at the FXL wasn't a success, fortunately 2 fell into my lap and then the drop worked in my favor. Since I read about the entire idea I wanted one, its about perfect, to be able to switch the HP and LP pre and post effect work make it absolute for me
Mother of god that board
This is small, it took a bit but I've seen some others that make this look mini, I honestly need to get a larger one, I'm holding out as long as I can - this one keeps me from getting into $ trouble

That top jack for the win! lol, I want to get the signal wire cut to length, so far everything is so so tidy underneath with color coded zip ties, I run 9 all the way up to 24 volt depending on headroom demand

Can you believe just one power supply runs this thing, one of those cioks ciokolates. Even pushing it hard its dead quiet, unless I'm running a high gain its very much recordable with the lack of noise
