Rochambeau Musical Apparatus Dirty Doper

the rectangle one look super bad ass next to the squares

The square ones are awesome, it's always bothered me a little how close those toggles are to the footswitch on the rectangles.

I think the orange splattery one is mine/Dannydubz

Confirmed, yours is the one that doesn't even have all it's pots mounted yet.

Wait is worth it bros. Sorry to hear this has been such a pain in the ass for you though, CRMBreaux

Eh, it's character building, no worries. Please no one conclude I'm belly aching when you read my vent type posts. It has been a battle, but I've been preparing for this battle for 20 years - and not all the blood drawn is my own. By and large, this entire process has been exhilarating - admittedly obstacles have come up and tripped me up.. that's just part of continuing my education. Onward!

I haz hype! This is going straight on to my drone/tabletop setup.

Family picture before boxing them up and dumping them at the post office tomorrow.



Now I only need to peel out two crustaceans from the next run and I'll be completely caught up.

[UglyCasanova]

Ooooooh! Is mine in there? I want to guess bottom left, but I really can't recall what two finished I picked out.

Doesn't really matter, that all look bonerlicious!

[crochambeau]

Hahaha, yours is top left.

I'll figure out how to embed it in a second.

Thanks!

Just ignore my awful voice as I try to keep my kid from blowing his eardrums out.

[UglyCasanova]

Your voice is dark and sexy. Did your kid say "look at this crap" at first?

Awesome pseudo-trem sound!

[neonblack]

Haha thanks! I think he said "clock" because the knobs kind of look like clock hands? I did let him play with the knobs after I stopped recording. He loves playing with my pedals while I play guitar. He wanted me to play an Arctic Monkeys song
So I did, and Arctic Monkeys have never sounded so gnarly.

I like that sound a lot! This thing is nuts. I've never felt the need to document my settings but I've had a couple that I don't want to forget.

I have the same battles with my kid, best is when he goes into the studio to play and sets stuff to inoperable/dangerous settings.

Should I create/include a cheat sheet for settings? I've been living with these things enough to sort of automatically know which control/position to grab for if I'm veering toward a particular sound, the issue is that some controls lose their strength in certain settings of other controls. It's really just a big balancing act, getting used to the pivot points of the circuit can take some time.

[neonblack]

Nah, I like the feeling of discovery. I feel like the instructions were pretty clear and useful. And it takes 2 seconds to snap a pic of my settings so its totally fine how it is.

i am blown away by this beast..so worth the wait and I feel pretty lucky snagging it at the pre order price! the enclosure alone is incredible. looks like tons of hate/love went into it. it is MASSIVE sounding. the volume was set a hair off silent with my amp at 2 and it made my balls tingle I can sit here for hours immersed in the details of walls it produces. great fucking job with this! looking forward to messing with the cv inputs and am so stoked to record with it next month.

here's a couple of clips; first one is a drone thing parked on white noise that you can hear briefly then I engage the dirty doper and go through a bunch of settings. the dirty doper is solo at 9:19+

I'm pretty active with the drone thing in this one and engage a ct5 somewhere towards the end

awesome...i wish i would have got in on this the first go around. has there been any word on the next batch?

[crochambeau]

has there been any word on the next batch?

Based on my standing record of stating a date and missing the ever loving shit out of it on this thread I'm reluctant to name a date, hahaha. I do have two PCBs fully stuffed and ready, and two more at 90%. There will indeed be more, but I'm going to probably limit them to runs of 3-4 in the future. I do hope to dive back into another round before the month is up, and aim to establish a shark tank before then, so that'll be the place to watch...

Right now I'm focused on fulfilling the two outstanding Crustacean orders (hope to use them for a set tonight and then post them tomorrow), followed with some Tetanus Boosters, which are dead simple.. to maintain my mental health.

Thanks for the good words resincum!
