Indeed. Can’t wait for this!

Wait can anyone share the details?

It's really cool looking. Great feature set too

CLASSY. Can’t wait to have one of these!

Well seeing how I only recently got the mbd-1, I shouldn't really need the V2 as well.


But nooooo, it had to go on sale on my b-day, so I guess I don't have a choice, right?

One of the most simplistic and beautiful pedals I've ever laid eyes on....

Got the news in my email. I’ll never let my MBD go. But this pedal should be an instant winner. Genius.

Well happy birthday!

Well happy birthday!

Well thanks, but it's in December, the day it actually goes live

Ok. There’s nothing on the Damnation site, I’m not on the email list, and all that’s been revealed here is a picture. So, is this simply a smaller enclosure or are there updates to the circuit? Just curious.

External 20db boost switch + silent switching

External 20db boost switch + silent switching

So, for the most part, it’s an MBD in a smaller enclosure, cool.

Top mounted jacks, the footswitch at the very bottom... very nice indeed. To be honest... I should've waited a couple of weeks.

Very nice.

Dang - think there will be a trade-in program? LOVE my MDB-1 but a smaller footprint is just what the dr. ordered

 

[donahue]

I'm curious about the +20db? I wonder if it will put it into fuzzed out territory, or just make it more insanelyer louder?

 

[Matt Dean]

I’ll get one... (Matt rises from the dead)

The +20db of gain "transports the internal MOSFETs into Valhalla" ... Its gonna be a trip to hear the MBD sound coming out of this little pedal!

I believe it’s the same as the MBD-1 where you could turn the internal trim to get a lot more gain, but now it’s wired to a switch on the outside set to a 20db boost. Yes, no, maybe so?

I would imagine it's the equivalent of maxing the MBD-1's internal boost trim-pot with the flick of a switch. They both affect the input gain. And +20 on the MBD-2 is the equivalent of maxing the internal boost on the MBD-1 since he sets them at +9dB from the "factory" and they go up to +29dB.

Point being, I tinkered with that a lot on my MBD-1, and maxing the boost trim put me into fuzz-stortion territory. I'd find this very useful if I wanted to have just 1 or 2 dirt pedals on board, since I could set it to low gain for most uses and then flick the switch for a tune that requires full on distortion. #cool
