Perchance a bass clip of just the straight octave sound with some filter sweep? Am I asking too much?
My order is already in, at any rate!

Did you want to hear the Xero doing the sweeping, or you want to hear the effect of the filter control on the Sub? (That is, funky sweeping or tonal sweeping?)
Can't hear them yet but wanted to say THANKS to Taylor for getting them up today
Also, any opinion as to if it would play nicely with 3 Leaf Audio's "Wonderlove" envelope filter????

I was thinking on the sub itself. As much as the clips including the Xero are incredibly GAS-inducing, I need to hear everything this pedal can do on its own!!

I can't see any reason it wouldn't work well with the Wonder Love, but I don't have one to test. Perhaps once they start shipping someone with that combo can offer some opinions. Obviously I'm biased towards the Xerograph so you probably want somebody else's opinion! (Although I hear only great stuff about 3 Leaf)

Thanks Taylor. This is officially the most excited I have ever been for a pedal.
Damn Taylor!
Exactly what I hoped it would be.
Can I just give you access to my PayPal account and you can send me any new pedals when they are available?

Sure, give me your password and I'll "send" you some "pedals"... *takes vacation to Iceland on Jared's dime*
I think it -almost- goes without saying that one must listen to these clips with headphones or GOOD speakers. Laptop or other piddly speakers will not come close to representing the sheer awesomeness of this pedal.
Sounds really good. The Octave down sounds exactly like I hoped it would. I liked the last bass clip the best. This definitely completes the IE modular synth.
Glad the blind order looks like it will pay off! Cannot wait to put this thing through my Xerograph Deluxe, Oxide and Polytope!
Well after listening to the sound clips I am convinced that this is an advanced version of a modded OC-2. Please Taylor correct me if I am wrong.
as a comparison please note the video:
This does confirm that it will sound freaking awesome with some fuzz. Any clips with a Battering Ram yet?
A few questions though:
Did you add some type of gate or filter to remove the extra glichy sounds that occur when the filters are removed from the OC-2? if so great.
The synth from an OC-2 comes from the 4013 chip that offers only a square wave, I am taking it you replaced this so that a saw tooth is also possible?
Is the Subterranea's Filter control a variation (ie a variable version) of the low pass filter that proceeds the section responsible for repeatedly inverting the signal to generate the octave? Hope this is clear, I am talking about the second filter in the Synth mod demo.
Hope I am not being too picky, just want to have a full grasp of what is going on.
Sounds great though Taylor, thanks for the effort. I am patiently waiting the arrival of my order.

It shares a little bit of topology with the OC2 but there's a lot more going on. I won't give a detailed rundown of the circuit but if anybody wants to reverse engineer it it wouldn't be too difficult. Also I should note that although I'm vaguely familiar with the OC2 mods that have been going on, we didn't base anything in this pedal on those efforts so any similarity is a matter of convergent evolution.
Cheers Taylor. I don't want to reverse engineer it, and meant no disrespect, guess curiosity got the best of me. Looking forward to playing around with it.
urf. on my fone at work so can't listen yet. thanks for putting up some demo'y shtuff though pimp.
