Title: Triple Flush Tremolo
Post by: GermanCdn on October 27, 2012, 10:05:10 PM
So I built my first Double Flush about a year and a half ago, and absolutely loved it.  Tremolo is by far my favourite mod effect, the only problem is I typically have to have two on my board, one for a subtle background effect, and one for a hard stutter type.

Then Tayda got in the 4PDTs and the tri colour LEDs, and I thought, "Problem Solved".  Initially, I was just going to make it a two switch pedal with two rate knobs, but it quickly morphed into a six knob trem with dual rate and intensity knobs.

Love it.  Gives me the best of both worlds.  The dual rate knobs worked out exactly how I wanted them too, LEDs alternate between red and green depending on which pot is selected.  The dual intensity knobs don't make a huge difference, but it is a nice adder.  I will build another one with dual rate knobs and dual balance knobs.  Or maybe just a four switch version.

Awesome.  I have the same problem with 2 tremolos on my board.  At some point, I will be making one like this.
