An excellent 6/12-stage phaser, being a clone of the revered Moogerfooger 103. I’ve just received a brand new exemplar from Andertons today as a replacement for one I bought a few months ago that had a loose connection. I’m on a drive to raise money due to unemployment so don’t even want to put this on my board. As yet I haven’t even opened it. I’m happy to leave it unopened or to open to test and photograph for the buyer (once payment is received) if desired. Price includes recorded UK postage. Stock photo for illustrative purposes.-

Chance to get it back for what you sold yours for, with the lovely tube you recommended too. -
I love this thing. The only reason I’m listing this is because I’d like to get the newest version. That is a lot more expensive so I need to recoup some funds towards it, otherwise I’d keep this too and use on a second board. In excellent condition, with a few cosmetic marks as pictured. No original box, power supply or MIDI breakout cable though (which is how it came to me). Will of course be packaged securely for postage.-

Now £349 as I sold the second Tung Sol tube separately. Sale now includes just the Tung Sol fitted in the pedal and the original Sovtek tube.
-
Oh, this is the guy I spent a lot of time talking with and demonstrating the pedal to at the booth in 2024.
-
A lot of pedal for not much money. -
Are those tubes really tiny or do you have giant bass player hands? -
Chris contacted me to ask if I’d consider selling a spare 6SL7 tube that was bundled in one of my pedal sales. I had a think about it and agreed. All the details were sorted swiftly with prompt payment, and clear and friendly communication. I’d happily transact again. Many thanks.
-
What tubes are in this? There’s no info on the Jule website. (Monique I see uses 6SL7 and 12AU7, among others.)
-
Which ROM was it on? Was it an original unit patch or a DX7II patch?
-
@AinsleyWalker is this the right one? I can’t tell if it’s black from the picture. -
Which patch of the original set do you mean?
-
Are you interested in any trades (full or partial)? -
These were the ones I thought were strongest from a larger set of my candidates for inclusion in the factory bank. They don’t have any velocity programmed at the moment. Sometimes we collaborate on sounds where I’ll submit some and another guy in the team will tweak them a bit. The added complexity is the presence of the VA controls - ideally I’d want all factory patches to have stuff programmed so that the panel controls always have an audible and useful effect on the patch. I could certainly do some finessing but I want to hear back if the others like them or not. There are one or two which, with a bit more work, could make convincing upright bass patches, and probably superior to those I programmed for the C4 that lots of folks love. If they don’t make it into the factory bank, I’ll share them anyway.

The editor will have control over velocity depth and mid point. This should cover what you need. Panel control is a bit more limited. Most original DX7 patches have some velocity sensitivity by default.
-
Do you mean rather no velocity? i.e. that it’ll respomd exactly the same no matter how hard you play? Yes, but this will likely only be adjustable via the editor. The panel control will unfortunately only allow for one dynamics parameter to be adjusted (without making the interface more complex) and it looks like the breakpoint will be a more useful one to have panel control over.
-
There’s a velocity depth and centre-point setting.
-
Yes, the FM engine cannot be triggered via MIDI.
-
As promised, a few rough FM clips (please forgive the crappy playing). @Al Krow, the last one is especially for you. 😉 QM Bass 01.mp3 QM Bass 02.mp3 QM Bass 03.mp3 QM Bass 10.mp3 QM Bass 14.mp3 QM Bass 18.mp3 QM Bass 19.mp3 QM Bass 21.mp3 QM Bass 23.mp3 QM Bass 24.mp3 QM Bass 25.mp3 QM Bass 28.mp3 QM Bass 29.mp3 QM Bass 33.mp3
-
I’ll pm you, as per the rules. -
If I get a spare moment, I might manage a couple of clips of some of the DX7 sounds I’ve made.
-
I’d like to hear what you think. I had and loved this pedal for years but sold it before I got hold of the Grand Slampegg and Bassrig Fifteen so haven’t been able to compare. I’d be curious to try it again.

This is a tricky thing, and partly a result of muddled/lack of marketing/market research. The FI is derived from a pedal that was a bass-only product. However, the FI goes way beyond that. The patches show what the device is capable of in terms of programmability. The manual reflects the pedal’s ability to cover lots of territory. However, the marketing continues to focus almost solely on its being a “bass” pedal. This does mean that bass players have understandably felt perplexed by the seeming lack of bass-focused patches. Now it is a synth so there probably was an expectation for users to roll their own sounds to taste. However, earlier versions of the editor weren’t so user-friendly in terms of ease-of-connection, layout and patch management. These are things that I’ve pushed to improve in every iteration since 2019 and I feel the interface is much easier to work with than it was. Sure, it still has its own quirks and isn’t as slick as other companies’ editors, but it’s reasonably straightforward now and doesn’t suffer the software bloat/overload of other editors. The depth of on-panel parameter editing was also finally improved in v4 (I’d been pushing my implementation since 2019). Notwithstanding the aforementioned improvements, there are still many users who couldn’t or didn’t want to create their own patches via the editor. I hope that with a chunk of new classic sounds, the newly-added ability to copy and move patches directly on the pedal, and the deeper on-pedal parameter editing capability, these users will finally feel catered to; they’ll be able to modify the classic patches to their taste and copy the result to a new slot. As regards the DX patches, in addition to the obvious ones from the original DX7 internal patches which were all over records from the 80s, I’ve aimed to create and locate decent bass patches. If these don’t make the factory set, I’ll share them anyway via the cloud.

It does.
