glassmoon Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 Hello all, Question... Does DemonFX have a version of the DarkGlass Vintage Microtubes? That's really the sound I hear in my head when I think of drive, mostly after watching an old Steve Lawson YT clip where he's showing off his pedals (LINK) <around 02:20 he talks about the VMT>. Anyway... That's what I'm after. Any thoughts? Kind regards Julian aka Glassmoon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glassmoon Posted December 11, 2023 Author Share Posted December 11, 2023 Thanks all - looks like the Demonfx Alpha Omicron might be a good option to try... still a little dirty though. The Vintage MicroTubes is just so satisfyingly "clean" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They said they'd consider it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind regards Julian aka Glassmoon Seeing as Darkglass stuff kinda grew up in the DIY community, you could build your own? https://www.musikding.de/Guma-Antique-Overdrive-kit 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glassmoon Posted December 24, 2023 Author Share Posted December 24, 2023 Thanks very much for the link @LukeFRC. Do you know how "close" this one is to the DG? Oh, I was not aware DG came from the BYOD community. Very interesting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very interesting I don’t know what BYOD means but early varients we’re on diystompboxes https://www.diystompboxes.com/smfforum/index.php?topic=69335.0 Another version here https://www.musikding.de/Maelstrom-Bass-Drive-kit Electronically it will be similar - I think one of the chips is hard to source (see note on Schalltechnik version) I think If you want it to be the same buy a darkglass made one.

glassmoon Posted December 24, 2023 Author Share Posted December 24, 2023 BYOD = Build Your Own Device (a take on IT using it for Bring Your....) I'll send these links to a mate of mine in Estonia who is a whizz at this sort of thing. Either that, or I just sell something to pay for a DG....
