The Sushi Box FX Secret Society

Now you are just trying to confuse me (easily done) , FDecks filters are 12 + 12 filters which mean 12dB at 35Hz and a variable filter at 35Hz to 140Hz with a 12dB slope as well, this makes FDecks filters 24dB below 35Hz.
You are correct. Filters like this stack linearly, which means the Fdeck does filter 24dB below 35Hz. If I'm filtering 12dB per octave below 35Hz then adding another filter that's 12dB per octave below 70Hz, what happens to my first filter? 35Hz is below 70Hz, which means you will get another 12dB per octave filtered off there.

Two ways to write the same thing, in my opinion.
 
Did I miss the Finally v3 layout announcment?
What is going to be different feature-wise?

I really like my v1, use it for my weekly ampless house band gig. But I typically use with with my active basses which of course have onboard eq's. Only thing I would wish for is that pedal with bass/treb eq for times I like to bring my passives out of hibernation.

I keep thinking about the new Slampegg, but space on my tiny board is tight and I'm not going for a 'Peg sound.

Variable HPF instead of the fixed one on v2.

Yup, looking forward to hearing what he thinks about it. Chris is not affiliated with Sushi Box and is not being paid for a review, I sent him the unit with no direction so I could get an honest and unbiased review from someone with a lot more compressor experience than I have. I really like sending him things to check out because he's not afraid to tell me what he really thinks, and sometimes (like with my mkii version of Single Slice; the current version is mkiv) he really doesn't like it.
 
If this ends up getting delivered today, I could still make Single Slice happen before Christmas. Not much before Christmas, but still.

Gifted my college jazz bass professor my Grand Slampegg yesterday as a both thank you and retirement gift. I just acquired his 1967 B-15 as a very special gift from my parents (my prof was looking to sell it anyway, so it worked out serendipitously) so it's only fair that I give something in return 😎 He was excited and kinda shocked that there was a 6SL7 tube in the box. The guy works on tube amps and HAM radios so I think he was really impressed by the package.

But, that means I'll need another Grand Slampegg here soon...
 
About to read The Night Before Christmas and tuck in the kids, I have a draft page for Single Slice set up on the site so I can get it finished up and available for ordering tonight after Christmas duties are done. I have 13 units built up and ready to go, I'll be building a handful more in a couple days.

Just make sure Santa takes a break for milk, cookies, bourbon, etc

Merry Christmas bud!

…and up on the roof arose such a clatter.
I sprang from my bed to see what was the matter.
I saw an intruder in all red and I was going to give him what for.

…then he handed me a single slice compressor.
 
Alright, here you are: Single Slice Compressor – Sushi Box FX

I don't have a lot of detail yet and I still need to get a demo video for it, those will hopefully be coming soon. Personally I'm very happy with the way it turned out, and Mike Watt used the words "really happening" to describe it, so I like to think that counts for something.

I'm on break in between filling stockings and making cinnamon rolls, I'll get back to it and check in with everyone later. I'm off work at the day job now all the way through January 2, so I'm hoping to start knocking down my substantial to-do list on the Sushi Box side of things.

EDIT: since I rely so heavily on word-of-mouth advertising, it's in my best interest to get new products in people's hands as quickly as possible, so I decided any Single Slice ordered between now and January 1 will get expedited shipping, regardless of what you choose at checkout.

Just got one.

FYI tried to reset my password, the password reset email was just html code, clicked on a link there and it sent me to the page to reset my password again. No biggie, still got my single slice on the way!
 
Tried to order a single slice but ran into some web site issues for which a pm has been sent. On a related note, perhaps the description on the site would benefit from a few specific deets:

-is attack time shortest fully c-clockwise?
-is blend 100% affected fully clockwise?
-is "comp" a ratio control? If not then what?
-does sens = threshold?

It seems that the instructions for a pedal would be more useful if posted in a logical, easy to find place rather than randomly scattered in this thread ;)

Thanks
