I needed some weird reverbs and noises, so I took a £50 punt on the M-VAVE ANNBLACKBOX and I've got to be honest, it's better than I expected. I need to repair the FI again though, the output level pot has died just like last time. I'll have to take it off the board, the pot isn't solid enough to survive being in the bag. What synth do you think I should replace it with? Wish I could get one of the 3D printed recase kits to turn it into the mini version, then I could pull it into the board a little and off the back edge, which would protect that pot... replacing the pot is a complete ballache as well.

 

What does that monster weigh? Is it on wheels and motorised?

The fella who made them just stopped doing it, sadly.

Let me know what you need. Do you have a model to work from? Printing is the easy bit...

As it turns out, I can! I didn’t realise there was anyone still making them - but there’s a fella on Facebook who’s in the Future Impact group, and I’m now in touch. Yay!

Managing to get reasonably similar outputs across both boards now for songs, but also different flavours which is cool.

My current pedal bag.

I think today’s the logical day for showing this one. May the 4th be with you, and all that!

 

 

I’ve added a delay since last year and a more fully-featured drive pedal. The drone, a multi-chorus and a fuzz have made way. I’m happy with the functionality of what is essentially a novelty board though. In particular, the bass chorus and reverb both sound right up there with some of the best of that type of pedal.

Dude that's incredible! Top work!

[BabyBlueSound]

What's the top left pedal? And what's the signal chain here? Any of these do the brass from the intro? 😁

Anyone see Beetronics' drop their Star Wars custom shop pedals? Some really cool designs there.

Yep! I wound up finding him on Facebook via the FI group there. Blue case coming this week!

The top left pedal is a Dark Father preamp from VVCo. They sadly seem to be in the process of closing down owing to a death in the team. It’s a weird one but sounds quite good once it’s dialled in.

 

The chain is:

 

T-65 (Octave) > Grand Tarkin (Fuzz) > Resurrector (HM-2 Hybrid) > Han Taun (OD) > Dual Knightfall (Distortion) > Tarkinfall (Distortion/Fuzz Hybrid) > Destroyer (Fuzz) > No Moon (Dirt Galore) > Royal Jelly (OD/Preamp) > Hyperspace (Chorus) > Darth Fazer (Phaser > Rebel Rebel (Delay) > Blue Harvest (Reverb) > Dark Father (Preamp)

 

T-65 effects loop: Boba Fuzz (Fuzz)

The big pedal at the front is their Darth Jelly from last year. I have a similarly themed Harmochorus from the previous year too which isn’t on this board.
