What's Coming & Going Thread, Part "FORE!!" (IV)

[KarateKid25]

Better yet, build you're own for about $50.

That depends on what your situation is... Sourcing all the parts that come with the BB would take ages. You would need to look over heaps of projects and come up with a substantial shopping list of parts.

Then there is the building of the breakout box and assembly of the whole board in general. You also need the knowledge to be able to build the breakout box, as well as drills and other tools etc..

If you put any kind of value on your personal time, then $250 isn't really that bad. You know you are getting a quality product with all the bits required to build a heap of circuits.

The BB kit is a great way to get straight into experimenting without having to know 'I need X amount of these and Y amount of those'. 'This is how I create a voltage sag' etc.. That is where the $250 value comes in to it.

Oh, did I mention it comes with cookies too?

Just arrived: OHNOHO CHK CHK BOOM
Coming: Boss DD-20

I want to put velcro on the bottom of the CCB but I don't want to screw up the painted labeling on the bottom. Hmmm.

 

[Smurf-o-Deth]

Can you flip the back plate, re-attatch, and put Velcro on that side?

 

[foomanfat]

Not really, the sides are rounded. Can I order an mxr sized back plate from somewhere?

EBS MultiDrive arrived today. On to the small board currently at rehearsal space, Wed evening. Check the classifieds for all the leftovers next week, incl. Ehx SMMw/H. I sell my stuff cheap, to pass the love.

 

[Pitbull Growl]

Hey Ricken,

What's your thoughts on the MultiDrive vs the ValveDrive so far?

It's quite depressing reading all the stuff I've got incoming/arrived...I'm not complaining though.

This is a pic of my FX75b with some tape wrapped around the base. First layer was wrapped sticky up, second layer was wrapped sticky down. If I decide to put it on my board I only need to stick my velcro to the tape, not the pedal. As you can see, I am an excellent photographer.

 

[bigchiefbc]

eek, I hope it doesn't take that long. His website said something like 6-8 weeks, and I was hoping that was the upper end.

Just got an email from Beavis saying that I'm on the list for the next batch. No ETA though ...

Wow dude. That sounds like fun.

 

[gnasher1993]

Wow dude. That sounds like fun.

Yeah...It's pretty much a whole pedal board on its way to me . I'm going to have to have a clear-out before too long...sadly

[René_Julien]

Going: Prunes&Custard

Why?

 

[Nyarlathotep]

Why?

Synth just ain't "me". Fuzz is DEFINITELY me.

Chance came up to trade synth for fuzz, and I took it

 

[RickenBoogie]

Hey Ricken,

What's your thoughts on the MultiDrive vs the ValveDrive so far?

I'm an idiot, it's not the MultiDrive, but the MultiComp that I just got. Never used the Drive, but I would assume the Valve Drive is a much more natural tube-preamp type overdrive, vs the MultiDrive, which would be less "tubey".
