You wouldnt miss that wide sweep? I say keep the optional expression function but add an fx loop & put in a larger enclosure
No cv

I don't find the exp much better honestly, I typical do the chromatron manually. But you could keep the exp and add a fx loop in one jack if you do it correctly. The Divaricator's one jack does 3 things including an fx, expression control and even a bi amp send, I'm sure it could be worked out. Although, as many fans there are for loops on envelopes, I would think that single function would be used more.
 
Personally I use the expression pedal all the time with the XD, couldn't live without it!
Same here, that's my primary use for the XD. I like it too as an envelope filter but, like others, have often found the Sens knob to be too sensitive to be tweeked in a live setting. But I get that its wide range is also a plus for others.

Its an addiction, man
 
Jealous of the arching prisms & frantabit, awesome collection but you def NEED a XD
Likewise. Your collection is great, as is @cosmicevan’s. Nicely kept pedals too.

This thread is both great and a horror when it comes to GAS. That’s before we getting into chatting about @labeledbass’s monster pedal board.

Hopefully everyone who wants an IE pedal can get one now that Taylor is thankfully making them more regularly again. Given how good they are, I’d be keen on every drop. That despite telling myself I really don’t need any more pedals.
 
I love seeing Iron Ether collections! Taylor makes some genuinely unique pedals and the more out there the better.

My collection grew recently with the addition of the Nimbus SE.

I'd love to find a Cygnet if anyone is willing to move one. And at some point I'll have to try the updated Polytope, FrantaBit and Xerograph Deluxe. Those 3 are incredible pedals and I can hardly think of ways to improve them but I believe Taylor is obviously capable of that.

I've never seen a Cygnet for sale before, it's my white whale. And I stupidly missed out on the DIY version when it was available on musicPCB.
