They released 500 shallow waters with special artwork (burnt) to celebrate the 10k mark, so nothing new really.
...and I hope it's not gonn be something already here ,but in ...Grrrreen...
I hope so too and something more practical. The Roger that was cool but it’s a bit unusable for 99% of musical situations..
To me Roger That appears to be a decent fuzz that goes more textural than the others with interesting extras.
No?
I am finding it increasingly interesting.
Still; For the moment I'm holding out for what ever is next.

I hope its a Barbershop with some sort of TONE and FREQ knob. I really like the frequency range of the V1 rather than the V2. I also like how the V1's SAG knob works vs V2.
Isn't the main difference between the big box version vs, the millenium one, a higher bottom freq roll off as in: less bass gets through?
I think I read that somewhere...
How is the sag different?
I am not missing tone control on my barbershop and like that there is no eq, as such.
The V1 has a higher bass roll off, 40hz vs 20hz on the V2. FC didn’t go in to specifics of how the SAG is different on the V2. To my ears though the V1’s sag knob as you turn it counter clockwise has a cool compressed feel that you find in old 50s small tube amps.Isn't the main difference between the big box version vs, the millenium one, a higher bottom freq roll off as in: less bass gets through?

I nearly bought a V1 last year.
Might still do soif I find one for a good price.
Meanwhile I'm spending some time really getting to know shallow water.
There’s one on reverb right now for a fair price. These are only going up in value , I’ve seen some V1’s sell for 230+I nearly bought a V1 last year.

I have a feeling the next release will be 2 pedals, the envelope follower we saw at the convention and the new pedal (grrr maybe?)
This thing, it would actually be useful in my pedalboard.
I built my own clone of the shallow water - it’s really finicky to get that trim pot set up, it basically sets where the LPF is fully open- but it has a crazy small window of “right” - I would leave alone, or at least mark where it should be before fiddlingHas anyone here changged the setting of the internal lpf trimpot of Shallow water and if so; what were you looking for?
...and it should be where the lowest note on the bass is audible at the most counter clockwise setting, I recon?
erm - again I’m on a clone but I don’t think I ever got to a point I couldn’t hear the bass, I was setting it so when the knob was fully clockwise there HPF wasn’t engaged and you could hear the bucket brigade hiss
