I saw over at tagboardeffects a picture of a build where someone said they used a p-touch labeller (one of the nicer ones I believe) to label the knobs and pedal.
It looked amazing actually. Some cool fonts with different sizes and I couldnt see the seems of a label...
anyone use one of these?
experience, pictures of builds, etc? Id like to get something better than stamps, but still do not wanna learn a graphics software! I have all sorts of audio production software skills, but damn graphic software pisses me off!
Graphics and audio software are the same functionally, the tools just have different labels. I know enough of each to be be functionally dangerous. Labelled sounds cool, prolly cheaper than inkjet ink and waterslide paper.
I have a P-Touch but have never thought about using it for labeling an effect. Do you have a link to the picture you saw?
This is certainly an option, especially if you use clear labels and then clearcoat over them. I have a P-touch label machine but haven't used it for labels on pedals yet. It works well. My latest use of it was labeling a couple hundred little SMD storage boxes for SMD components. It worked great, and helped me to stay organized.
I use the P-Touch for a lot of labels, here's a few

Sorry for the crap pictures, the lighting in my basement is horrible for photos.
The P-Touch is a great little investment. I also use it to label all my parts drawers and guitar cases.
I started using a P-touch also.
Here are a few.
