The Sushi Box FX Secret Society

I’ll take another look but all I recall is a black and white version with a light bulb graphic - nothing super sexy like the most recent pics Nathan put up of the Vampire Slayer , LU etc ..... But it is not going to deter me if it isn’t as pretty though since I want one as soon as I can pony up the cash ..... Kelly
It's not black and white, it's actually purple and tan-ish white, but yup that's it. Not quite as sexy as some of the others, but it was late and I liked it :P I am not an artistic person, all the images I use are just ideas that I have and find images for online. I like the Westinghouse graphics but in a different way, a simple elegance if you will.

Also aside from not being very artistic I'm also not much of a photographer, every single pedal I've ever made looks at least 12x better in person than I'm able to capture in pictures.
 
I'm really digging that Vampire Slayer pedal art, but just a word of caution/awareness since I'm a graphic designer in Marketing for a day job...

Using imagery for professional uses that you find and save from the internet could land you in copyright issues. Keeping things as anonymous as possible: A direct connection of mine (not me!) was terminated immediately for two instances of doing that, which cost that person's company almost 6 figures between the two lawsuits.

There's a number of stock photography sites out there that have royalty free resources... You'd be much safer finding/purchasing imagery from one of those than a right click > save that may cost you a lot of money!

Excellent advice, and that's generally what I've been doing. Back when I first started I shamelessly stole pictures and even removed a couple watermarks, but those pedals never left my house (until later when they left in the garbage can). The amount of cheap/free artwork out there today is phenomenal. I don't want to get sued :D
 
I do it at least once a day with the new Oracle DI (w/XLR).

Mmm, that Oracle DI is on my list. But it's not staring at me quite yet though... waiting to see what Sushi geniuses up (that's now a verb) for a tube DI(s), and am on the list for a Westinghouse in March to tide me over.

The Ottobit Jr. has me firmly in it's gaze at the moment though. :D

I have three or four sushi pedals staring me down right now.
I know what that's like x40ish

I just picked one of these up - still in it's way to me, can't wait to get it.

I have a bunch of tube DIs, but looking forward to seeing what Sushibox is cooking up. Also looking forward to that SVT style preamp ...
 
where’s all the tubes man
They'll be there, I promise ;) Ever since the Great Tube Accident of 2021 where eleven 6N21B lost their lives after falling off the workbench, I leave all my tubes in the tube cabinet until they're ready for the install and play check (which will hopefully start tonight).
