Title: Sound Skulptor DI503J tube/fet/passive DI and reamp 500 series module
Post by: harryklippton on September 05, 2022, 06:26:53 PM
This is the most excited I've been about any build since my amp earlier this year. It's a 500 series module from Sound Skulptor for DI and reamping. I had been wanting something for reamping so I could use pedals as outboard gear with my DAW. I had been drooling over the sound skulptor cp4500 ever since I saw @leevibe's thread about his build. I happened to notice the DI503J while browsing the sound skulptor site the other day and pretty much instantly bought it. It arrived Thursday, and I finished assembling it last night and then tested it today. This was really fun to build and I had no issues.

Thanks everybody. Nothing more complicated here than the average pedal build and no offboard wiring! It's pretty fun to assemble this stuff

Usd<euro right now too. Good time to get European wares.
Just got a capman ltd release baritone shipped from London for less than I could buy the std release stateside.

That was a huge motivation for me the day I purchased too

Whoa. Superslick.

Tempted to get into 500 series myself, but it's a bit too spendy for me. (Eurorack is kinda punk, in that you can cheap out as much as you like.)

That's kind of how I looked at it.  I thought it looked cool and tubes and transformers always means sonic goodness but although I understand the concept of reamping my little pea brain has yet to wrap around the process...  Definitely badass though.
