Title: Delay Ray....(Aquaboy DLX 2015)
Post by: Orbis_Ignis on April 20, 2016, 05:43:17 PM
Pretty proud of this one. It took a little trouble shooting, but man does this thing sound awesome. My painting of the enclosure didn't come out like I planned, but I liked what was happening so I went with it. There is white, sparkle blue, dark green, and sparkle green all mixed in with a little of the aluminum coming through. I was just going to strip it and start over. But I like how the colors came. I think you can really see the Manta ray and labels well. Oh, and I like the yellow green LEDs that I didn't even know I had, lol

Thanks guys! I'm really enjoying this pedal. Now I'm working on the Naughty Fish and a couple more delays. Basically just waiting on the 2u2 NP cap to come in.

Thanks! Yep, XviveMN3005s sound really nice. I really like analog delay and to me the repeats on this is just as clean or cleaner than the JHS Panther Cub I had. To me seems like the delay times can get really long too. But I never use very long delay

Great !
Do you think an external tap tempo like the Tapestry Audio Time Traveler could be used with such a project ?
I'm looking forward to the MBP Timelapse hoping it will be launched soon.
The Panther Cub uses 3208's, right ?
