Title: Interesting Catalinbread Pedal Over on FSB
Post by: raulduke on January 04, 2012, 12:33:53 AM
Seems the guys at FSB have traced the Catalinbread Paraeidolia and produced a schematic  :o

From the soundclips I have heard this thing sounds freakin amazing!

Hopefully a full schematic will get drawn up and this thing will be verified. Must be worth a shot at building.

Catalinbread stuff rocks IMO, but it is really hard to get hold of in UK!

Yeah, ive been watching that thread for a while.  I am definitely going to build one.  My friend has one and it sounds amazing.  He wouldn't let me take it apart and trace it though.  What an asshole.   ;D

Yeah I think the schematic is verified.

Think I might have a go at a board layout and go from there.

Very cool! It's kinda like a filtered tremolo?

They seem to be in the discussion at the moment. Interesting thread at BYOC

I liked it but she was kinda annoying.
Is this actually for reals?

If they did a DIY paradeelio or whatevers its called I might actually buy it for fun of saying id done a "fuck it you build it" build. "fuck it, I DID build it"

We need an actual laughing icon here  ;D

I think the thought is that it is indeed for real. The hope is others begin to catch on to this too but that would be a slow process. But, maybe it is all a hoax at the end of the day, dunno.

It appears that they are selling kits:http://www.catlinbread.com/kits/ (http://www.catlinbread.com/kits/)

I really liked the way the video was put together.  A lot of tongue in cheek humor going on there.

I imagine the kits will be out of production C'Bread effects.

That way they are not losing out on sales of their in production effects. We will have to see though I guess.

I think the Vid, and store, is definitely for real. The marketing etc. doesn't really bother me either way; its not that funny, but its also not offensive either ha ha!

I was looking at the Paraeidolia and was imagining how cool it would be to rip out the LFO circuitry and replace it with the Tap LFO circuitry and chip (like the MusicPCB tremolo). That would be super cool.

I'd love to see a Pareidolia PCB, although maybe I should get started on the uncompleted PCBs I already have.
