Hm seems like nobody is fully satisfied with their build. Also I can't go back to vero I caaaaaan't. I've done countless veros but nowadays I just can't seem to make myself to use it.
Seems like I'm gonna pass on this one.
Might do a Clarinot just for fun :) I remember some of the 6 knob versions that some of you guys had done, and those were really cool.

Clari(not) is better IMO. I just recently built a 4 knob pirate and given that I usually like mad effects, it didn't really do anything for me so I scavenged the pots back and threw it in the box of shame.

This! the Clari has more, and more interesting sounds from "normal" to drug trip. Especially with the fuzz lift mod.

Cool!
But I've heard that the fuzz lift do not eliminate the fuzz entirely, it is still pretty dirty right? That's why I considered the pirate...

Well mine was built on vero by a board member here and it is very clean in fuzz lift mode. It still needs some extra gain to trigger the envelope in fuzz lift mode so I use a light clean boost in front or a filter. Its as clean as a pt2399 delay can be. I even put a multiplex after it to give more than one repeat and it held its own without noising out.
