Late to the Arcadiator game

I finally got around to building an Arcadiator with the extra modulation board, and boy was it worth it! This is a blast to play.

I designed a neat design for the enclosure using the cover art for Super Breakout, but the acetone transfer ate away at the Tayda powdercoat (I know acetone tends to destroy paint, but I got a good transfer with a Hammond-painted box once), so I sanded the top down and left the orange coat on the sides. After another failed acetone transfer on the bare face, I transferred the image via heat but at a cost of detail. I plan on putting on orange Boss or Davies knobs, but who knows when I'll get around to that...




And I had so much fun with this pedal that I made a little tribute video for one of my songs from one of my favorite games, using the Arcadiator almost exclusively a drum track and some delay was added).

I build pedals to hide my lousy playing.

It's the DC6FX seal of quality. It isn't my build unless Molecular Biology is present.

Zagcat, Chris is starting to remind me of this guy

I tried to attempt something like this, but I found that I wear through my shirts within a year or two. I do wear my Adidas Samba Classics every day and buy multiple pairs to last me a while. Kids notice.

It was originally used for a DeviEver BIT clone, but now it provides my prototype circuits power to stop the evil Gannon.

Oh man I can't believe you built one of those.  It only has 5 knobs but I guess you can count the switches to get you to 9 things on top lol.  Looks great.  I just couldn't resist ribbing you on the low knob count though.
