Order in the store.

You can order this in 3 different flavors:

Basic: as you see depicted (in, send, return, out jacks + intensity knob)

Add a Joy Button (not pictured): same function as footswitch. more tactile fun for your fingers

Add a Loop Mute (not pictured): toggle switch to activate or mute the fx loop.

Before you ask, one can not combine the joy button and loop mute into the same pedal.

CHK CHK BOOM One-Off: “Kinderlunar” + New feature

By Lawrence Scaduto | Published: February 24, 2010

*last One-Off for FEB*

SOLD

What’s that toggle switch you say? By Jove it’s a “loop mute” switch! What does it do?

When engaged: what’s on the send and return (fx loop) jacks WILL NOT BE HEARD. Hit the footswitch and POW! What’s in the fx loop is heard and is fed back. Turn the feedback all the way down and you’ve got basically a momentary a/b switch (depending on what’s plugged in).

When the toggle is in the other position it’s your standard CCB. You’ll always hear what’s in the fx loop and the momentary switch will just turn on the feedback circuit.

Utter Stutter One-Off: “Dr. Hans Monocle” + guess the new feature…

By Lawrence Scaduto | Published: February 8, 2010

SOLD!

It’s finally fricken’ here:

EXPRESSION PEDAL INPUT FOR THE RATE CONTROL.

Got it wired up tonight and yes…. it’s awesome.

After several sessions with the late “Dr. Hans Monocle” I’ve laughed, I’ve cried and I’ve had several uncomfortable breakthroughs. We’ve explored many themes; one of them being my uniquely male temptation to put stuff into other stuff to add more control options. Through vigilant deciphering of his incredibly thick late 1800′s German accent, I’ve learned that this comes from my “sexual desire as the primary motivational energy of human life”.

This pedal artwork is a tribute to him.

As a metaphor for the uniqueness that was Dr. Monocle, I have made only one with this artwork, never to be repeated. The knobs come from my 50lb vintage knob part bin. The rate controls are still active when the expression pedal is plugged in, setting the upper limits of the rate control.

The controls are labeled as:

Id
Ego
Super Ego
Unconscious
Conscious

Farewell Dr. Monocle. This one is for you. And yes, I am successfully repressing my desire for incest.
