He's down to one so, get it while it's hot? :idk:

Okay, I'm weak. I grabbed the ADD. Looking forward to checking it out. Seems very musical.

Awesome, I didn't know the person that grabbed that last one on reverb was on here. I hope you like it! Also, next time you see an ADD thing you like message me on here and I will give you a better price ;)

I’m having this annoying issue that my Moogerfooger is TOO FREAKIN’ BIG for my board. Like it’s just complicating my effects pedals life to an unreasonable amount.

Does anyone else have this oddly specific issue?

Kind of wishing I had gone with the Randy’s revenge.

My MF-102 actually makes me want more pedals in those enclosures, actually.

Like, I wanna rehouse my drive pedals into those big-ass moog enclosures so everything lines up better, etc. :idk:

Anyone have any thoughts on the EHX Ring Thing? Got offered one in a trade but like, maybe cool or another EHX disaster?

I can tell you’re the sort of person who likes to live dangerously. :lol:

Honestly the size isn’t a huge issue but I do run it through a TB loop and that adds even more space on my board, so like, less space for the fuzz pedals I really like.

I think it’s an issue really that I have too many cool pedals and not enough space to make them all work. Maybe I need to move to those flat cable ends?

It's kind of cool in that it has a lot of options and savable presets but ultimately it didn't rule at any of the functions so I sold it.

Turns out it was a XO Frequently Analyser so the decision was moot in the end.

Thank you for your support.
