OMFG this is gonna flippin' rule! Soooooo much GAS lately due to ILF. SO. MUCH. GAS!!!

Hi Ryan, i'm reverse and gated reverb would be cool

[excane]

Color me SOOOOPER intrigued.

You can then use your foot to vary filter freq, cutoff freq, notch freq, delay rate, reverb length, crush depth.. all those fun parameters will be very powerful and musical using a foot pedal.

AWEE SOOMMMEEE

Yaaaaaay! That expression control sounds amazing Ryan

so will the memory chip be easily changeable for us lay-men? don't want to try gutting my pedals.

Or shipping them to canada either really

[Forrrest]

so which sword are we talking about?


lets do 4d sword!

here's the wiki on finns swords

That's awesome Kev, haha I love those guys! I watched a guy make a real life Finn sword on YouTube, just like the one on the left, pretty cool.

I was thinking maybe not a sword though.. maybe a more badass and intimidating dungeon crawling kinda weapon... I mean, if I was going into a dungeon I'd bring one of those double edged battle axes... man this is going to be a nerdy guitar pedal. I've got a 20 sided youknowwhat on the pcb already.

Changing the memory chip is just pulling out a little IC guy and pushing in a new one, super easy.

I am more than a little excited about this. If your looking ad releasing this year it will def. be a birthday present to myself!

[intothegroove]

this is revolutionary! I love it!

[Ryan]

The BitQuest will be available this year for sure, I think! *smile* I ordered the first prototype pcb last night actually, hoping it'll arrive this Friday and then for the long weekend I'll tuck in and make the first BQ proto... what a long weekend!

With a good pcb layout and another weekend or nine working on the code we'd be ready to at least do an initial run for ILFers in a special finish kinda thing, which I do think we'll do.

This isn't revolutionary though, just a fun idea with the Spin chip that lots of companies have been using for years. I think most companies wouldn't go for the memory chip swapping because there's no way to protect or hide the information on the memory chip.. anybody with a usb programmer could pop the memory chip into that and look at the code. I don't really care about showing what I'm doing though, it's always about more than that anyway and anybody truly determined can get their hands on any circuit etc they want, can't worry about it.

I also think most companies would rather sell you 8 pedals than one pedal with 8 different sounds.. but I'm just one guy and I don't want to make 8 different pedals to go on a Bit Quest.. one is enough!

[intothegroove]

Right on Ryan! Either way man, this is such a great idea and it'll give more people who are experienced or not with Dr.S pedals the chance to hear more of your magical sounds!

Hi Ryan, i'm reverse and gated reverb would be cool

Hey Ruben! Sorry I missed your post, first one! Welcome to ILF! *smile*

I think reverse and gated reverb would be awesome too... I could pull off gated reverb now but I've got a lot to learn for reverse..I've read that the Spin isn't suited for reverse so I'll probably never be smart enough for that....

[bronzetalon]

Also how nice is the tracking on the pitch shifting patch? If its not great how about a patch dedicated to up one octave and down one octave....you would be the raddest evar.
