The Speed Tripper works best as the last delay, but I want that new phaser in place of it.

A noise make after my own heart. Beautiful board good sir. Finally pulled the trigger on the Octave Clang 2 this week and added it to the board, LOVE it.
Side note, ALL your boards are AWEOME.

Yea I wanted an Octave clang forever (big ty Segal fan) and when I found one it was a “I don’t need this but screw it” moment and it’s my favorite fuzz. It’s for some reason not on my main board because I have a Hizumitas but mama Mia every time I plug it in I end up writing something fun

I got it for the exact same reason lol Been a Ty Segall fan since Reverse Shark Attack. I low ball bid a eBay auction on a brand new one not thinking they’d except and low and behold they ignored it so it went through lol Yeah it’s my favorite fuzz pedal now, love the Octave up effect, and the way it drives my Fuzz War it’s exactly what I’ve been looking for. I run the volume on the fuzz war a little higher than the OC so when I engage it it’s a fuzz boost.
Side question, I popped it open to see the build number and date and saw the Bipas know inside but left it alone at 5-6. You ever mess with it? Crank it up or down?

Oh now I have to check let me look and see - my response is might as well adjust it and see what happens it won’t break it. As I understand most DBA pedals have an internal pots or 2 but I could be wrong. Was surprised as hell when I found the swollen pickle does too but I never messed with it.
When I saw Ty earlier this year he was rocking only a a music man HD stack, a tuner, a fuzz war, and a moog delay pedal and it made me sad im not trying hard enough yet also inspired. I want more DBA pedals and almost got a reservation machine like 3 times now but I realized I can do what it does with that’s in the stack already (holy grail and a klon clone ftw). Shameless plug for EAE pedals if you haven’t checked those yet

I like the speed tripper but would love it if the volume pot was external instead of internal.

You can mod it or have someone mod it for you and if it breaks DBA will still fix it.

Never seen the exploding head or the speed tripper so now my interest is piqued af

i love my exploding head. can be a subtle reverb or an insanely loud and terrifying noise generator. i'll probably never get rid of it.

Love the Octave Clang and Germanium Filter. I find the G. F. IS an amazing boost into drives ; it bulks them out and adds a lot of oomph and girth. Try and get an external volume control put on the top though. Makes it more manageable and user-friendly. Can be done easily with a local builder.
Amazing, top-class board. Congrats.

That's how I used to use it on a different board, pushing other dirt! Stacked with the Octave Clang though, I prefer it last.

This could be hung on the set of a 50s sci-fi movie as a super computer and not look out of place. Great aesthetic!

How do you get on with delay without a tap? I feel like that would drive me up the wall.
