Thanks!

Apparently 1981 Inventions are putting out their second pedal this week. Looking forward to seeing what it is.

I am very excited to see what the new pedal is.

I keep trying to find these DRV pedals used but most of them are listed at or above retail prices. The cheapest I have seen used $220.

Seems the same here, haven’t seen a used one for much less than new.

Have you checked the secret classifieds?

Nothing that you haven't seen before but some action shots of my pedalboard from a gig last night.

So happy seeing my 2 glitchy boys with their new noisepapa

Also happy to see a Superfuzz too! I keep NEARLY picking one up with the express interest to totally modd it for switchable octave. Whoops, just bought one.

[Hurb]

Yeah the ottobit is used on two of our songs now. The judder forms a good part of noise sections. As well as kinda fake feedback stabs.

The superfuzz is just a great sounding fuzz and it sounds massive. I would like a hyperfuzz one day mind.

Picked up one or two new (old) things recently. I saw a Peavey 210 TVX bass cab available nearby and picked it up this morning. I spent an hour or so with a scrubbing brush cleaning it up, removed the grille and vacuumed/wiped the dust off the speakers and generally made it look more presentable.

The idea was to have a more portable bass rig than the HH VS Bass combo, but the cab is still quite heavy. I can drive it quite nicely with the HH IC100 which has a frequency response down to 10Hz, trem, fuzz and reverb (and a "Studio/Stage" switch that reduces the gain). However, I think the IC100 has not yet had my attention since I picked it up some years ago (thank you Tim); those switches are dirty and don't always work as they should (Servisol required), it's a bit noisy (swap the 741 op-amps out for NE5534As) and maybe a bit hummy (replace smoothing caps).

Nice. How’s the Deadbeat?

Jack of all trades master of none. I usually leave it on detune for subtle chorus, but all of the other sounds besides phaser and flanger (not because I don’t like flanger/phaser, it’s just particularly bad versions of both IMO) are very usable and handy to have on the board with the turn of a knob.

They’re discontinued but apparently the identical circuit as the $35 Coolmusic Modulator and probably other cheap multi-mod pedals with the same settings…I just had to have the moogerfooger cosplay version

[Thom]

Cool, good to know.

New board:

I've heard that all the cheap nano format octave pedals are not very good. How do you find the Mooer?

[Freddy V-C]

I had a Mooer Pure Octave on my board for 8 or 9 years. It got unreliable towards the end, and then suddenly became really noisy so I replaced it with a TC Electronic Sub'n'Up. But for the first 5 years or so it was solid, definitely worth the £30 or however much I paid.

That’s probably for the OC-2/3 style octave down pedals (maybe also the pitchfork style like Freddy had)

The V1 Tender Octaver is well regarded and basically an EHX Micro Pog, IIRC they even had to change the circuit because of it. I have no complaints at all about mine, its quiet, tracks well and reliable. I’ve had it on my board pretty consistently since ~2015, I can’t speak for the mkii version but others here (dots I think?) have them and seem to like them from what I remember.

[Doog]

Yeah, I bought a mk1 from Hurb and sold my Micro POG; it's pretty much bang on; any tonal difference is down to non-code variables.
