I understand they're about to reissue these again. Maybe I should have sold mine already. Even though it's a reissue form the mid 90's, they're hard to find nowadays. I don't particularly want to sell it anyway. It's the best flanger I've ever used.

just received the trem pn-2 and it sounds amazing. I loved the Tr2 but I must admit this one sounds better. and it has a nice stereo output that u can use with the pan set up.
I love those old boss effects. it's a pity their new stuff do not sound as good...
My newly arrived Keeley Stacked SD-1. There's all sorts of great improvements to the stock Boss SD-1 Super OverDrive that Robert has made: two new chips, a two-way gain switch, and improved switching that's closer to true bypass.
I played it at practice last night and, at the settings shown, this pedal cooks as a great "light" overdrive. When combined with the Wampler Cranked AC, the sound will melt your face off.
Fussión; es un pedal doble, que incorpora como distorsión principal un Sans Amp GT2 con doble control de volumen conmutable: "Rhythm" y "Lead", para rÃtmicas y solos respectivamente. Posee un equalizador post distorsión, tremendamente versátil, con conmutador de scoop de medios, además de un switch de encendido, que en conjunto con el switch de encendido principal logran que el pedal sea True By Pass
Damián Iriarte nos mandó una foto de su pedalera que incluye:
MBS Black Sheep Wah
MBS The Wizärd Overdrive 2
MBS Delilah Delay
MBS Super Booster
MBS Multipower
A solid stereo chorus pedal with a nice range of sound. I don't really need it, but it's a solid pedal.
The PH-2 is really sweet except for this nasty scratchy noise it adds in. I'm hoping Ben will sell it to me for cheap because of it...
That's my DS-1 Distortion hanging out in the background. It's the best distortion pedal I've ever owned.

The new fan cooled Pedal Power Digital has plenty of current to power your most juice-hungry stompboxes
Back in the 60's and 70's when a lot of the circuits used in stompboxes were being designed they were designed around the crappy batteries that we all knew and loved back in the day. If you're an old guy like me you undoubtedly remember what it was like living with those batteries. They had an outer skin of cardboard and they leaked like crazy after a very short time. Pretty much every AM radio I had as a little kid was murdered by crappy batteries. I eventually built a crystal radio set and used that because it didn't need batteries and I was sick of acid pouring out of the back of my radios every time I opened them up to change the batteries.
Anyway, modern batteries are much better and deliver peak power for longer. And that makes some of the old circuits very unhappy. Particularly distortion and fuzz pedals, but also things like chorus pedals and phasers. Many of them like to see 7 volts or so. So people scramble around looking for generic Chinese batteries hoping they'll be as crappy as the real thing. Rumors were that Stevie Ray Vaughan used to carry around partially-depleted batteries to use in his Tube Screamers so they'd sound the way he liked them to sound.
BTW, don't ever use something like this with a modern microprocessor-based pedal. Your digital delay will not be happy and some of the magic smoke may even leak out of the case. As I'm sure you know, the magic smoke is what keeps these things functional. When it leaks out they stop working.
This is a simple "battery simulator" (or it will be when it's done) that allows a 9v DC power source to have its voltage rolled off and its resistance increased just like you'd find from a dying (or crappy) battery. You just place it between your wall wart and the effect pedal and there will be a potentiometer that will allow the voltage to be lowered. With the meter you can make a note of what power level sounds best to you with your chosen pedal for quick rough setups.
BTW, don't get me wrong...I did not invent this concept. A lot of people have been playing around with boxes like this for a while. This is just my crack at it. I'm following some well-worn tracks in the snow.
Anyway, I just glued the meter in place and clamped it down for the night. Tomorrow I'll give myself some new soldering scars.
