2.) Does it go 100% wet?
3.) Can the bright toggle switch be made into a knob?
7.) How many bone must I break to acquire one?
2) yes
3) yes, but I'd have to build the pedal into a larger (1590BB) enclosure.
7) $125

NICE. & my final question: could you add modulation to the circuit with controls for depth and speed?

I like where this is headed

I could just build you an Echo Base modded with the infinite feedback and extended delay time. That would be pretty sick cause you get trails and a nice buffer and blinking LED too.
The parts alone cost me like $100 for those though.
Otherwise I'll have to try and figure out how to add the mod in. Time to do some nerdy research.

Just put an efx loop on the DBD!

Yeah, an effects loop would probably be just as cool if that's possible.

Thanks Cobascis!
Gonna have a standard delay w/ feedback switch in a red enclosure up for grabs in about a week and a half!

My EP Booster/Dist + build is great! A side by side comparison of the cloned EP booster and a Xotic EP was about 95% accurate, the gain sweep was identical and that 5% diff is really just a slight difference in mid characteristic. The Dist + side was spectacular, the added silicon clipping is probably my favorite OD ever, just the slight amount of hair that I like. The no clipping toggle is a formidable boost in itself and totally transparent. A comparison between my vintage Ross and the germanium clipping setting on the Bukowski was 100% identical. There was no audible difference! Great build, I love it. Gonna paint it up soon!

You have good ears man! I made a slight change to one of the cap values in the EP Booster. That would be responsible for the difference in the mids.
Really glad you're liking the Dist+! If the change on the EP Booster bothers you I can change it back

Naw man, it sounds good. Plus, the Xotic I use to make everything louder at the end of the chain, I was using yours at the beginning of the chain to get a gain boost on my other dirt boxes so it's not an issue. I'll pretty obsessive about the most minute nuances of tone, so if I ever want to tweak it I'll just ask you what value is and swap it. But really truly I couldn't be more pleased!

Communarchy - I liked the silicon diodes setting the best too. I'd like to try some different pot tapers for the drive control in that circuit. I feel like there's this massive change right at the end of the sweep that could be smoother.
I REALLY love that circuit though. Sounds so great.
Hbomb post pics when it's done!

Those weren't my nicest guts

The jack placement in the predrilled enclosure gave me like no good way to mount the boards. So I went all Devi and wrapped the Hyperion board in electrical tape
