Oh buddy, the rug is a long story...

Do you remember the bedroom boards?
They were cool pedalboards looking like fat black suitcases and requiring no velcro to fasten the pedals to them. The pedals would just sit on a piece of shaggy pile and a vast amount of egg box foam in the lid would gently but firmly keep them in place if you needed to take the pedalboard away with you.
I wanted one badly, but the dude and his uncle (I think) who used to build them were in the US, and shipping something huge like that to Europe was going to cost a bomb. I hated the idea of simply replicated the product, but I still decided to borrow the concept.

I had quite a few pedals at the time and I had a clearly defined chain with a single use for each pedal, no overlap. I ordered a luxury teal sparkle spaghetti shaggy rug from some random company shipping it from China. 110 x 61 cm - pretty big but the smallest size I could find, I thought there would be room to grow - sweet. The plan was all sussed out. I was going to build the pedalboard frame as soon as the rug arrived and be set.

All this happened roughly at the time I discovered this very forum... Needless to say my plans were properly ruined... By the time the rug arrived, I had already flipped half of the pedals and bought many many more: I now had multiple flavours of dirt, exotic modulations doing pretty much the same thing in a (slightly) different way...

This was 9 years ago. Nearly a decade of noise experiments on a rug that I just roll again when I'm done playing. Every year, I say I'm going to finish the board and there is always something missing... So I buy more!

Earlier this year, I tried to break the cycle and actually did a mock-up in MDF to see what a 110 x 61 pedalboard would look like...

I realized it was actually enormous and that I needed a room for it, so now I'm getting the house extended to build a room for my rug!

To get back on topic, I just ordered the gen loss and grain cards for the Arcades!

that's a nice story, and a HUGE board.
If i still was in my twenties i would have loved to lay down on that thing and let psychedelics do their job.

That would be cute and probably quite cruel

one of my coworkers dyed her snow-white Great Pyrenees green for last St. Patrick's Day (2019). i'm sure she used non-toxic dye though, because she's a vegan animal-rights kind of person, one of those punk-rock women rescuers like Wendy O. Williams.

I used it to split the signal from the Septavox into the Arcades on one side and the Wombtone+SuperNovaDrive on the other side. I used the Doom to create a riff, crossfading between the 2. Shit got real when I introduced them to a few comrades: the MidiPal takes the Clock signal to the Koma RH301, RH301 converts the MIDI signal to CV and passes it to the Koma FT201, the step sequence of the FT201 goes into the CV IN of the Transmutron to control the split point and make it jiggy, and another clock subdivision goes from the RH301 to sync the riff from the Doom on the master tempo. Everybody plays nicely - organized chaos is where it's at... The combo Transmutron+Doom is like a dream team. Joyz.

Group pic before i send the Doom to NZ for a makeover tomorrow am:

Edit: just realized it was more chaotic than planned because I did not sync the Wombtone in the end - could not find my Chase Bliss cables in time - there is always next time!

I'm interested in hearing what this sounds like!

Where does the Clock signal originate? It's not clear to me.

That sounds like quite a sight!

I wasn't even thinking about toxic dye just the state of a dog's mind when it's dyed a new colour all of a sudden

it certainly was a surprise. she came out a sort of pastel shade of grass like you used to get on your knees when you were small playing in the yard/park.

Lava Cables - mini coil in Metallic Green! (closer to teal than green)

I packed the Doom to send it back before I thought I should record a soundclip! Defo next time!

The Mutable Instruments MIDIPal is the high resolution clock source (the small black box that says BPM 88 at the forefront of the pic next to the Subdecay)>MIDI cable>KOMA RH301>CV(TS)>KOMA FT201>CV(TS jack to mini-jack)>Transmutron and another cable goes from RH301>CV(TS)>Doom (into the I/O input) as I am using an insert cable in the IN.

The MidiPal does a ton more stuff - more on it here:
