Damnation Audio Fan/Appreciation Thread

MBD has just arrived!

Yeah I'll definitely play with it some more. I know that shift position down yielded a thinner tone until I introduced some clean, so I'm sure I could fine tune it that way too. I actually really really liked the dirt tone from it though. It just sounded more massive than I expected from it live :D Didn't notice it through my audio interface when I tested it for a short while, but things are always different through live rig.

Honestly, I've read the whole thread before getting it and some users did comment how they loved how MBD gives a unique low end kick, so maybe that's what I experienced. Either way, it's a fantastic dirt pedal for sure. I just gotta find what will work best for me - as a low gain drive or a medium gain drive.

Oh yeah, it does add a low end punch for me too. I had to make some adjustments initially as well. I almost didn't hear what it was doing the first few times I used it. Then my ear kind of adjusted and it was like, oh yeah, I likey :D

I spent some time improving the website today. Would y’all mind taking a look and giving feedback?

much appreciated.

No immediate complaints looking it over on my phone.

Edit - should probably say I’m using an iPhone with duck duck go for a browser.

The landing page looks great! The central "shop now" link is effective.

The separation between current and former products should be clearer. It's a little weird that the products page is filled with so many pedals that are not only sold out, but also listed as "discontinued." Therefore, I recommend you give the discontinued pedals their own section, either lower down on the product page below a horizontal line (this is what Chase Bliss does) or on an entirely separate page (this is what Broughton Audio does).

The dealer's page is frustrating to navigate. I like how you've given a graphic to each dealer, but those graphics are so big that there is far too much scrolling to get to the relevant information. A smaller grid/matrix arrangement will make this page more accessible. You also might specify what state the US dealers are in (in parentheses after their name) to help customers quickly determine the closest place to try out one of your products in person.

The artist page uses the same formatting as the dealer page, but I think it works there because the artist information is one of discovery versus looking for specific information (i.e. a dealer near me).

This is good stuff. I only added the discontinued stuff because according to google, people are still searching for these things. Bigcartel does not allow two seperate products pages so perhaps I make a separate discontinued page.

I did have the artists and dealers as a grid but the CSS wasn't working right. But I'll dig into that again.

Thanks!

Happy to help! It's smart to add the discontinued stuff. (Come to think of it, the Bloop and MBD-1 should be on there as well.) As you say, those pedals are still in the wild and people are still looking up info on them.

I think I fixed everything. Haven't decided on a format for the discontinued page or if I'm going to have one. The stuff we're building now is the future of our products.

Thanks!

But there's something far more important! It's new MBD demo day!
