Title: Dandy Horse
Post by: dan.schumaker on March 14, 2017, 12:49:37 PM
Here is my Dandy Horse that I finished up last night.  First impressions are really good.  I really like the flange mode so far.  Just picking some chords out on it, Purple Rain just jumps out at me.  I plan on spending some time the next few days exploring the other modes and what this bad boy can do.  The build and calibration were super easy, the guys did an amazing job with the build doc to make it very straight-forward to follow along what to do to properly calibrate the pedal.

I made one little mod to the pedal, I added a dry output to it, using a simple op-amp splitter.  This works well with the blend switch.  It was fun playing it in stereo this way, really makes the modulation jump out at you.

That was quick! Amazing job, I'm really curious about this circuit! How was the biasing? :)

Biasing was super simple.  The instructions do a great job spelling it out, and the labelled test pads make it that much easier.

Awesome, there's 1 successful build!  Why am I not surprised you were the first, haha.
Anyway, I'm super glad you like it.  It's a whacky beast, that's for sure.
