Iron Ether Appreciation Society

It's the exact same circuit board, MusicPCB was my other business (finally retired it in November).

That's too bad, there was some really cool stuff on there.

My Nimbus SE acts a bit weird. Instead of having a blue/purple LED, it now shows either a red or no LED. Did I unlock a secret mode or has one of the LEDs just died?

Please email me at info at ironether dot com and I will get that sorted for you.

Dayumn, you just opened the catalog and said YES

What a poor time to discover this....

I am super excited for the future of Iron Ether having in stock pedals though. Totally makes up for it.

In all seriousness, I'd love a Cygnet, but I'm currently having the MusicPCB Tap Tempo Tremolo built, which is essentially the same thing.

Where did you get the pcb? Who’s building it? They are not in stock at musicding, any other way to get a pcb? @Taylor Livingston

 

[Taylor Livingston]

I'm not selling them anymore I'm afraid. Don't even have enough time to do everything I want to do with Iron Ether, let alone trying to run a whole second business concurrently. I'm pretty sure some of the other pedal PCB people have newer projects that are similar. There's an updated TAPLFO chip with extra features that came out some years ago. I don't know specifically who made a project for it but probably Madbean, Dead End FX or some other pedal PCB person if you search for DIY tap tempo tremolo.

 

[davelowell2]

Whoa, they just came back in stock and I bought one, sweet!

Thanks for the heads up! Bought all 6.

Really?

 

[TOGNA]

Really?

Not all 6 Tap Tempos. All 6 MusicPCB offerings on the website.

Oh!
Heck positive!

I bought the PCB a while ago, it's been at least a year. I have no skill at soldering so I'm hiring a local amp builder/electronics guy to put it together for me. The enclosure will probably be super basic, with labels, but I'll be happy to finally have something close to a Cygnet.

Awesome, well, I bought the kit.

Just posting to say that Music PCB was the first DIY pedal building PCB site I found and the Echo Base was the first DIY pedal I built. This was back in 2011 or 2012. I ended up building all the PCB’s available and still have a couple of unbuilt Meat Sphere PCB’s in my stash.

I just purchased a Dubterrena (used). What the difference between the Subterranea and Dubterrenea ? This will be my second Iron Ether pedal. I have the Xerograph Deluxe now, love it. Still have the Nimbus on my wish list.

The Dub has the newer digital octave pedal, inside, and the Sub is the analog. If I remember the Dub does have more options, one more, but I liked the overall tracking of the Sub. They are both very fun

You'll want to roll as much of the high end off of your basses signal as possible to get a clean tracking with the dubterranea. As Taylor said, it's meant to be paired with the xerograph, so you're winning on that front!

I like the subterranea better as an analog octaver. It tracks really well and has a pretty flexible filter. The dub recreates the synth waveforms much better though.
