ILF SECRET SANTA 2018: SIGNING UP CLOSED

[jrmy]

Yay! My Seekrit Satan rulez! I'm afraid that I'm a bit lame, tho, so proof is just a photo, not a video. But still! Proof of loot!

So, the box was perfectly packed up, with all of the packages wrapped in newspaper comix (my fave). To my delight, there was ample dark chocolate, and an bag of coffee from an Oregonian coffee roaster. Also crayons and fruit rollups, which my kiddo quickly claimed. AND RMA stickers, leading me to believe that my Satan is perhaps crochambeau... AND AN RMA TETANUS BOOSTER!!!! Which totally rules, and sounds huge on bass... BUT EVEN BETTER: the note promised that the pedal is only a stopover while a new circuit is in the works. I am GIDDY with excitement. Fr'realz.

Thank you so much Secret Satan! I can hardly wait to see how the Tetanus sounds on my live board, to say nothing of the mystery circuit in the works!

That's sick! The Tetanus Booster was my favorite from the RMA tourbox. So texturey and versatile!

My mark is supposed to get their box of gifts today. I'm constantly updating the tracking to see if they've received it. Hype!

I got an RMA, too!


raj007 did a fantastic job with his gift. He sent some books for my kids. Snacks. Honey, tea, and festive socks from Portland. A copy of his favorite album with a heartfelt note.
The pedal is a custom IC Muff with some extra tricks. He commissioned it based on comments I'd made. It sounds amazing.

Hahaha, yep, the "real" gift was/is too ambitious to meet deadline, and I needed to hit the deadline this year (it's my first time, I think) - so there are some aspects that are waiting out the next box as this one was a touch rushed - it may be some while, for which I apologize in advance. Anyway, it's exciting (so it'll take longer, sorry), thanks for the inspiration...

I got an RMA, too!

That was a fun build, you can crack it open and adjust the mid switch intensity and the presence/feedback intensity of the right hand footswitch circuit, should be self explanatory once it's open, but I'm happy to answer any questions if need be.

I swear, seeing these things out in the wild almost makes me happier than getting the heap of cool stuff of my own, but Satan kicked serious ass so it's a hard call to make.. HAPPY NEW YEAR

DRod nailed it. Two amazing custom pedals that he obviously put a lot of thought and heart in to making for me. Delicious cookies, cool book and a weird noise maker too! I will post better pictures of the pedals later. Thanks Drod, love ya!

If your mark is who I think it is, their box arrived an hour or two after they left for a quick vaca in MTL. Catsitter brought it in from the snow.

My satanees gift has cleared customs and then cleared customs again and now is being held by customs?!!? WTF.

That is the name of my new band.

Good.

Firesaw is our savior when the zombies come!

Glad you enjoyed it the stuff! Ill probably post a diy post with the circuit if anyone wants. It's an op amp distortion into blendable diode clipping paths. Muff tone circuit.

[Inconuucl]

Just got the package. Holy shit.



I have no idea where I posted that I love candles, but my desk just got a new addition and I'm already in love with it. I'm currently playing with the piezo and it's a lot of fun, can't wait to run it into the witch shifter.

I'll try the chocolates soon.

OH SNAP BURROUGHS GYSIN IN THE HOUSE

Tracking quirk. Probably customs checked the package and decided that Babs Santini would have to pay charges/fees on it. So now they send a letter with the charges. Try tracking it in the destination country's postal service providers, normal ones get wonky after they land.

Tell us about that Dream Machine thing.

It's a pretty gnarly local zine, baremountain gets interviewed in one of them. I'll read through them later today.
