Oh oh yea! Ahem...UglyCasanova, maybe you just can't HEAR how superior OBNE's sound quality really is. I think they really went the extra mile with the few modes they DID include with each pedal.

I wasn't branded or imaged well. I'm going to go be alone.

Better, better, that's the spirit.

Perhaps UC's overall rig just isn't of high enough quality to clearly hear the difference OBNE put into their pedals' sound.
Thanks for the reminder, D.o.S...I always forget to go Ad Hominem.

Erm, two issues--money and space.
Hahhmnm, make that three issues--money, space and time..
I swear these exact sentences have been used before in another thread here.
Actually, I'm pretty sure every thread ultimately leads to this sentiment.
Kinda like the whole "the longer a comment thread goes the probability of hitler being mentioned increases exponentially" thing.

I've been thinking about this a lot. We constantly dock pedals for not having this or that feature when those features make sense. For instance, it really bothers me when delays that sport a lot of features don't also have some kind of external sync function. Why should these be any different? They're capable of so much more than what they're doing with them. And they are, for the most part, extremely similar. So, their only option to gain market share is to create and sell an aesthetic. I don't want to pay for their aesthetic. That's why I get my stuff acid etched.
If they're going to use something that can do A LOT, then they should make it do A LOT. If you don't want to use all those features, you don't have to but at least they're there if you want to! If you're going to use the parts to make a sports car, then make a sports car. You can still drive it slow, but then you at least have the option to go let it rip.

Really I think the big issue here is that we should kill all humans.

I want to pay for good features, not a good aesthetic. If it has lots of good features I'll buy it, but I'm not going to buy a pedal just because it's pretty. If it's ugly I can pay someone to make it pretty, but making a pretty pedal doesn't make a good pedal.

Oh yeah, for sure. I misunderstood you. I thought you said that you categorically etched all your pedals as a statement of you not wanting to pay for anyone's design
