My Parasit Studio kit is still on the way, which has resulted in the purchase of an Electro Faustus Drone Thing.

*sigh*

It's not that bad, I do have tracking and it'll be here soon, I just got the urge to buy something so I needed something to blame for my recklessness ;)

Having said that, I feel the need to do a decent job of finishing the enclosure for the kit, so it's going to be a week or so before I can play with it, so that's another good reason to buy the Drone Thing.

I know he ships them all fast .. I think international mail is just rather inconsistent.

I love all of Fredriks projects. I has some real fun doing theremin noises with the Into the Unknown going into a reverberation machine and delay the other night. +Volume swells = alien spaceships landing

Into The Unknown sounds like a cover band that does nothing but deep cuts and b-sides.

What's the pedal though? Love the name.

C250k ? ;) I used a B250k for the gate and it's fine. I also have a bunch of the TDA whatever amp chips for the currant if you need one. Hit me up. Just got a bag of 4015's too.

Everything I’ve heard clip-wise of the Into the Unknown sounds awesome.

It's a fool around device. It captures some PLL madness and has a LFO and glitches and beeps and stuff. The filter is badass and you can get some really creepy noises with the pseudo theremin style sounds throbbing.. I highly recommend printing out the knob description from the build guide while you first play with it ..

I really am loving juicing it into the reverberation machine and a delay.. but then again I do that with everything.

I certainly recommend it as a build, it's got a lot of chips and pots but it's an easy board like all Fredriks stuff. The drill guide he provides works great. I used a b250k for the gate because I only had 1 c250k and I put it in the Darkadiator.

Also highly recommend Xor'Cist too. The LFO ring mod fuzz sounds bananas

I have v1 which uses A250k for the gate it looks like. Will have to double check what, if any, other chips I need for that one. The Green Currant I actually do need the TDA, and a .015uf/15n cap :p

The Into The Unknown kit arrived this morning, no sign of the Drone Thing so that will hopefully be here tomorrow.

I've now got to decide what colour to paint it, bearing in mind I ordered four red and four yellow knobs (can't remember why!).

My current thought is that as I have lots of different aerosols I may well layer up a little of each and see what happens :)

It would certainly be a leap into the unknown, so seems the most appropriate.
