Perfecting The Bitquest

I've seen a few references to changes people would make to the Bitquest and I was wondering, what would your perfect Bitquest be like?

Mine would have footswitching for the fuzz/clean mode, which I doubt is possible, envelope control, and a compressor.

It would be cool to get new patches for it I think.

The reverb sounds awesome, the other effects are in a way more quirky but still sound great.
For now I mostly use it as post fx with the filter, bitcrusher and reverb.

I never use the dirty mode, for me that could be left out completely.

Two BitQuests...in one enclosure. With a third stomp for dirt, compression, and...oh wait, I'm just building a pedalboard now.

I love my BQ; no real gripes. But it's fun to dream.

Perhaps there is a misunderstanding?

We do not perfect the BitQuest! The BitQuest! perfects us.

I'm starting to find the whole thing a little bit frightening.

Remember you have to turn the effect type dial after flicking dirty/clean for it to take effect. It has to do with how the FV-1 loads patches.

Envelope control would be amazing tho

Ok, ok! Great post, vidret, I learned stuff from reading it. Logged in just to write that. I'm on a bus. A really terrible bus. Somewhere far away. Far away from my BitQuest! I miss it. Ok bye
