Came across a too-good-to-pass-up deal on a lightly used multi-effects pedal, don't think I've ever seen it on here, it's called a BITQUEST.

Yep, finally one of you guys. :lol:

First impressions are really good, all of the programs offer things I don't have. Fuzz is surprisingly awesome. Gonna try expression input now. Oh it's the UFO edition, with white knobs.

:!!!:

Oh heck, I missed that.

I preordered the Behringer RD-8.

I feel dirty.

I got an EQD aquaduct, once I got deep in I mangling my guitar in ableton I stopped using anything that I can easily replicate there, which is everythings that's post amp. So I've sold the one day I had and got this with it. True I can easily do vibrato in Live, but not the interactions it has before a distortion/fuzz. :snax:

The oscillator bleeds like crazy when it's bypassed. Bummer. Send David an email. Hope it's an easy fix I can DIY.

I have to snub the oscillator of the Monobius when the effect is in bypass due to bleed (grounding the input and output of the PCB did not suffice). There's always a fix, I can't weigh in on simplicity though.

He just asked me to ship it back, so I assume it's more complex. Bummer, but I'll ship it after ILFEU. Just put it in an fx loop or something so I can still play it for the mausoleum gig.

:joy: It looks incredible! Curious to hear your first impressions UC. This monster is 66 mm high though, that's taller than a Boss pedal... gotta find the right spot on the pedalboard.

It's a few mm shorter than a Meris pedal, so it's not too bad, but it does have a weird shape. It's a lot smaller than I thought it would be, tbh.

Edit: see?

Oh yeah a lot smaller indeed. (Like the Ehx Grand Canyon looked bigger). I would have loved a double freeze instead of tone generators, but this pedal has my interest for sho.

Hmmmm. Just get a Rainger Echo X or whatever it's called. This is "just" that with two oscillators and functionality linked to those oscillators. If you remove them you're left with his small delay pedal.

Do you mean you're disappointed?
