Most likely not the most beautiful build I did ;-). I won this PCB somewhere and build it (it's a very early version of the PCB, drolo told me). I ran into some issues with hiss in front of my amp, but was too lazy to fix them (drolo was great in supporting me, but most likely, I just got a bad FV-1). However, it sounds great in the fx loop of my mixing desk, which does not have onboard effects. So, rather than dumping it, I removed everything I did not need (stomps, external pedal jacks, dry/wet potentiometer) and just use it for that.

...before I removed stuff:


...and after that:

Well played.  I wonder, being a digital effect is there variance from chip to chip?  I mean in the audible range at least?  The FV is a tad noisy anyway but I haven't noticed variance in builds compared to...say...the PT chip and I think that like the PT you need to apply a bit of filtering?

Hadn't really thought of it but I do have to chase the footswitch on quiet bits with high gain and extreme pedal settings.

How loud is too loud?  What?

Nice build.  Looks like a useful tool for the mixing desk.

Do you (or does anybody else really) have the build docs for this board?  I have one kicking around here, but I have zero info for it.

Very cool! But, change that "a" to an "r" in overload.

Cool. Will do that. Nothing really to ruin on the outer appearance.

How does it sound on the "Elvis" setting (Preset 8)  :P

I am glad you asked :-)

It's an early reflection short reverb which makes you sing be-babeluba all night.
