We visited once, a few years ago. Planning to go back again this year October, if the border opens up before then.

Jacob Collier is playing there next year. I would be hype for that. Tix already sold out, of course... we'll see what shakes out.

Happily trending in my own peculiar direction.
Josh Broughton made pass filters on drive pedals cool again. Should be a fun afternoon.
Looks cool! Just don't drink the ale underneath.
I’ve had a good Broughton run lately, HPLP, ParaEq, and SVD on the way.
I’m feeling oddly content right now.
I haz Solarian so I’ll be out this Friday, good luck to you all. I will be looking for new merch, though, seems like an easy way to support Broughton, win-win for both sides…
-Edit: Also, I read SV and SVD as sous vide and sous vide deluxe, lol.

Fun taking a trip back in the Broughton Way Back Machine!
Right around the time the original custom Archetype Rack Pre’s were built too. Topical!
That's actually just what I'm gonna call it now. Or Sous Vide Duck.
(I don't know how duck would be sous vide...)
It's not Broughton, but I guess I decided on that Afterneath. Bought it from a local shop, but it's one of those "buy and try" deals (they still don't allow in-store demo) so I have two weeks to decide if I'm serious about it.
I believe I am... this thing sounds huge. But it also dials back into a proper reverb quite nicely.

Wait, whaaaaat?
Apparently I live close enough to Chicago that it's just no prob. SVD is out for delivery. I feel jibbed... I was expecting at least another week and a half of increasingly impatient waiting!

first impressions: the tones are awesome, but the tracking is very peculiar. It tracks awesomely, but is much more sensitive to "noise" than any octaver I have played. The normal rules for playing with an octave apply doubly so here, or else you end up with a lot of audible extraneous notes... I would consider myself "adapted" more or less to normal octaver playing, but this is indeed a different beast. Gonna put it on my board now.

Read the tips on the product page, I have great luck with LPF before octaves, neck PUs, tones rolled back, taped strings are awesome as well
Another note: Build quality is super clean, enough for me to say something about it. I've never seen a new Broughton so this is a new thing to me I guess. I'll see about tearing it up.
I use a P bass with flats. I don't normally roll the tone off for octaves, but I may have to try that now for this guy.
Synth and sub voice from SVD+ basic phaser from ZOIA + Afterneath washy delay is just synth city.
The nice thing about the very sawtooth-y waveform from the SVD is that it gives filters a lot to work with. The Chromatron and the phaser are having a field day with it. No fuzz required tbh.
I didn't really want to start using my ZOIA on my board but I don't have any other modulation pedals. Zoia normally stays in a stand on desktop for synth use. I'm looking into getting a proper phaser pedal soon... I'm somewhere between the Walrus Audio Lillian and the Mini Phase 95

I've noticed that octaves, analog at least, don't like all the resonation up high, and down low too. Placing something like a RFE or Studio Boost before my octave wrecks the tracking, clean it up, boost the signal and its about perfect, definitely down to a low G standard, E if I play closer to the neck. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think that was the idea behind the 1st "channel" Clean, rolling the clean filter back is the same as rolling tone back, and that in turn feeds the Synth "channel". I use "" because they aren't different voices or channels, but its easier to understand imo
