Pedal Breeders' BIG Board Club Part II: Biggins'

[BIG97BEN]

For some reason, I want a preamp for my board. Suggestions besides the B7K, go!

Depending on what you are trying to achieve, but my favorites this week are the Broadcast and the Correct Sound custom beta

I will second the Enabler. They might be hard to come by but you can't beat it for a clean preamp, and it even has aux in and a headphone amp. That whole kit has come in very useful at times.

Have you looked into the Acoustic 360 Pre pcbs? moosapotamus.net

Excellent recommendation; the review on his page says its like a more flexible Avalon U5, which is what I got to plug into for the tracks I recorded on a few months ago (link in sig, no effects used though). I nearly went and bought a U5 directly after that session.

I have one and it has the best low midst of any pre amp I have ever tried....... one thing to be aware of, is the switch is on/mute, not one or bypass.

I had Domdec build me one with on/off, so I can use it without a bypass loop.....AND the fuzz is killer......

There are a couple of different Acoustic 360 DIY circuits out there. I don't remember where the second one I have is from. I have a small 360 pcb which I think may just be the fuzz part, and I have a full recreation of the pre/fuzz circuit with detailed instruction manual.

Wow, if the Polytope isn't my thing then the chase bliss flanger it will have to be

Glad I called dips on the Polytope when I did.

 

[blindrabbit]

Well, it will be between the flnger
Phaser and chorus. But I'm really hopeful about the polytope. I think it could stay on my board for like five months.

I'm patient, I can wait. That'll make the Polytope a nice Christmas present for me.

 

[blindrabbit]

Was it you who called dibs first? I never remember these things..

See above, it was me.

@TheEmptyCell, have you looked into the rusty box? IMO, it's a really good, versatile preamp with boost option and even some SS dirt. I use if clean but I love it that way. It works very well with anything you feed it or that is fed out of. Very awesome pre IMO.

yah i switch between them for different songs i guessed.... the vtdi is my rock tone, the para drive is my vintage jamerson tone... i am still trying to figure out what i will use the tone hammer for most likely i will use together with the AGS circuit though make it a slight overdriven tone. i paired the vtdi together with the rest of the dirt pedals -> fuzzrocious rat tail, fuzzrocious heliotropic, and dg vmt had no time to test the pedalboard though this is like my new revision of the pedalboard that i just did today

The Tone Hammer would make an awesome OD pedal.

Look at all that space for boards! Must have been a great show.

I should post a pic of the tiny stage that I had to play last night, and you guys will see why I have to stick with a Jr.

Does anyone know where to buy just the Pedaltrain hard cases?

I think they've popped up on here from time to time...so in other words, the used market. I'm not sure if they sell them separate, although that said it wouldn't shock me if they did.

BaseBone OD. It's the heart of my bass PB.

 

[blindrabbit]

I forgot to post this before. Let me know what you guys think when you get some time if you want, thanks!

Nice. Kind of reminds me of Disturbed. Hope you guys get some great reception for it - best of luck!!!

 

[blindrabbit]

Well this looks odd.

Eden Announces The Glow Plug Pedal

A tube "warmth" (?) pedal with a crossover AND a mix control? Sounds more like what should be on a chorus pedal, not a warmth pedal or whatever this is. Runs at 15V too, just to give that additional amount of weirdness.

Some Spaceman and Chase Bliss goodness here for sale.

Those Saturn Vs are getting expensive.

Hey, has anyone here tried out a TC Dreamscape before? I know sometimes you can sneak difference TonePrints into various "wrong" pedals, but this is one where they unquestionably allow for you to use chorus, flange, vibe, and other ones with the one pedal. This could be worth looking into for me, kind of Orbital-like in a smaller footprint and cleaner controls on the pedal yet retaining so much tweakability through the editor.
