Purchased a Gramma Pad from Len. Dropped it off, lovely bloke, great condition item, very fair price - can’t ask for more!

Purchased a Subdecay Prometheus from Jonnybass. Great comms, super helpful! Thanks.

One thing not to be worried about is a loss of low end… it’s monstrous! Ha. Zero low end loss, even when using sub octave pedals. It’s frankly gorgeous sounding.

I've accidentally fallen back into a live electronica project, which is something I didn't think I'd ever do again. As such, I have been able to dig out some classics again, like my SL-20. Sounded so damn good last night. Can't wait to jam with this board again! Full run down for those who care about that kind of thing.... PedalTrain Jr Max (with risers along the top). All cabled with EBS gold flat patch cables. Powered by a Cioks DC7 + 8 Expander. Signal chain... Input -> Boss OC-5 Octave -> Horrothia Teeth Mk.1 -> Dr. Scientist Frazz Dazzler -> The Really Good Pedal Co. Funky Puppy -> WMD Geiger Counter Pro -> Horrothia Type One -> Mr. Black Gilamondo -> Dr. Scientist Tremolessence V3 -> Boss SL-20 Slicer -> Dr. Scientist DUSK (black out enclosure) -> Source Audio Nemesis -> Keeley Bassist (used as a hard limiter) -> TC Electronics PolyTune Mini2 -> Output I'm kinda hoping that in the I can slim this down and do less stuff/hand over more sonic duty to the keys player, but for now, I'm rocking the full tool box. Generally happy with everything here, though I'm considering swapping out the Funky Puppy for a Mastotron and Prometheus combo. The FP is utterly awesome, but the controls are sooooo sensitive to different input levels that balancing it to various pedals before it is a constant challenge. I'll see how I feel after the next session.

The Mk.2 is £250 the last time it was in stock. If you ever find yourself near Derby, you're more than welcome to come give this one a whirl. Shep

They came out with a Mk.2, that replaced the 2-position switch with a knob (so offering more range) and the Mk.2 can run on battery. This Mk.1 version is officially discontinued. However, I understand that the Mk.2 is out of production at the moment pending a restock on a number of components. Not discontinued though, so I'd expect another run in the future. This one, serial 000, was Tom at Horrothia's personal one, which he was kind enough to let go as I was very persistent in wanting one I've been using this daily since it arrived and it's easily the nicest low-gain drive I've ever used (and I've used a lot!).

Excellent pedal, especially the fuzz side IMO!

As a big fan of the Subdecay Noisebox, I’m super excited to give this a serious go!

Like Higgie mentioned, the Grape is really excellent and super easy to use. I’d also vote for the Mr Black Gilamondo… equally lush and simple. Both, however, will run you more than £100. IMO the best sub £100 phaser is the EBS DPhaser. It’s discontinued now, but tends to fetch £75-90 when they appear on eBay and Reverb. For that money, I personally think it rocks.

Seems that tonally the phaser was a very accurate reproduction, and as others have already done a pretty solid job of replicating the tone in the 101, I think this one likely will be just as good. Interested to hear user feedback, as I’m sure there are more than a couple of basschatters that will pick this up!

The Artefakt seems uber cool. I've been considering one myself. NOTHING gets the tone of the foogers though... but they're also massive, colour your tone even when bypassed, have awkward power needs, cost a fortune, have temperamental foot switches and and and a million other downsides. But they are cool

It's more of a tremolo, that adds various harmonies to your sound. It's similar to an arpeggiator, but due to the tremolo depth (if set deep), it cuts your core tone up into strange choppy textures. It's a thing you need to hear in detail to explain. Here is an old track, from the band that used the massive board I shared earlier. This track uses the old 2-pedal slicer (in the intro and again later, but more subtle). I share this because it uses the same filter-y octave tone as the one in the video, which is why I think it's a slicer. The depth on this one is low, so the bass tone underneath isn't being fully chopped up, but you can hear the similarities.

The Clusterflux is the one I miss the most. That whole ‘time slow down whale noise’ it can do with some knob twiddling (or expression), is utterly next level. Best Chorus I ever used by far.
