PMing...

Wow... thread resurrection. I'm long past the point of needing an answer, but thanks for those that are chiming in.

Jacob

Awesome story is awesome!

Jacob

You can check the link in my signature for a DIY project, but if you want a fabbed board and can wait I'll have a project for you in the future. If you can wait a couple days, I'll be home from a conference and can give you more help.

Jacob

I think perhaps you're not quite getting what a clean blend does. A clean blend essentially splits your mono signal into a stereo signal internally in a pedal. Then, one half gets effected (by a fuzz circuit for example) and the other half remains unaffected (clean). Lastly, the two signals get mixed together into a mono signal that is then comprised of a both a clean and effected signal. You can use a pit to determine exactly what the ratio is (ie: %75 fuzz and %25 clean, or %90 clean and %10 fuzz).

Do you think that might work to get that sound?

Jacob

Sorry, mis-typed. Live should be 'line'.

Jacob

I don't think I said no, I just made a suggestion on how to try and get that sound. Try utilizing a clean blend.

Jacob

I don't know for Illustrator, but for Inkscape what you're talking about is transform to live. If something starts as an object, you have to transform it in order to be able to isolate it in Inkscape. Perhaps it's similar.

Jacob

That opening from "blood pressure" seems to me to be a combo of a fuzzed up signal and a clean one with a slap reverb on it, which are both blended together tastefully. I'm fairly certain they used a tonne of studio trickery to get their sound.

Perhaps a good way to get that sound would be to experiment with parallel fuzz sounds, or a clean blend in with a Fuzz.

Jacob

Congrats!

Jacob

If you can, go for the timeline Ian. I have one, and an El Cap, and if I had to get just one I'd pick the Timeline.

El Cap > Brig I think.

Jacob

They've been a favourite of mine since 92.

Jacob

Yeah, I'm sorta interested. Looking forward to the Eagle Template...

Jacob

If you look at the layout, those holes connect to other holes that are labeled: GND.

Jacob

Crazy enough, but the only OD I'm using on a consistent basis right now is my own design, loosely based on the Tubescreamer family. I also use a modded Sunking and a modded TIM clone.
