Sounds cool:

I've got one, very cool effect. plenty to dial in.

 

Might consider putting up for sale though.

Is there any gate control on the fuzz?

Yeah from about 50% centre upwards it kicks in.

Sounds and looks great, but what the hell is he actually saying from about the 2:07 point of the video to about 2:13?

 

Maybe it will be easier for a native English speaker to decipher his thick German accent there that makes it sound like absolute nonsense to me, as if he is suddenly speaking in tongues or something.

The Dreadbox Kinematic is a cool pedal

Just got mine to replace the Mooer Bass Sweeper and I'm blown away.

I love how nicely it couples with Emma Electronic DiscumBOBulator. 

See, Disorder has a CV sockets - including ENVELOPE OUT, and DiscumBOBulator has a SIDE CHAIN INPUT. The DiscumBOBulator is an autowah by default,  but if you connect these two, DBB becomes an envelope follower, controlled by Disorder's envelope even if Disorder is turned off; as long as it's plugged in to power source, the envelope - along with its sensitivity knob - works!

They could be stacked too, of course.

A follow-up for anyone to whom it may concern.

If you are a stoner/doom fuzz-head, follow the Method B described in the manual to tweak your Pre-Gain and turn this thing into a beast of a quasi-octave fuzz that can outgain many purpose-built gain monsters.
If you are a funky person, follow the Method A instead. Tweak it right and you won't get a bad setting from this baby.

If you want a little bit of both, still follow Method A. Even fine-tuned for funk-stank, it will deliver TONS of heavy gain if cranked.

Also, mixing it with a different wah/autowah pedal and toying with the knobs will allow you to do the vowel (formant) wah, and setting it right (either LPF and "-" or HPF and "+" can create nice funky variations on slow-attack effect.
