Another Analog Delay with added modulation. This one is back to a normal stompbox for guitar so no toggles or light sensors, just oscillating modulation. The second switch is a momentary slam switch that dimes the feedback control sending the thing into self repeating havoc bullshit!

Hmmm, Dr Tony Balls, that delay might be just what I'm lookin' for (or close to it).

Those are old Madbean boards. Not sure if they still look like or if he's changed them, but those were from the first lot of his aquaboys.

Any chance of a demo being uploaded of that pedal somewhere greeny?

*edit* Just saw on your FB that the demo won't be for a few weeks

New Power supply. Takes mains voltage and puts out 4*2 isolated 9V outs (two power rails with two isolated outputs per rail).
Finally enough juice for my babies

do you have pics of the inside? im just interested in seeing how people diy supplies. i built a few about 8 years ago that i want to replace eventually with something snazzier.
edit: also you may want to make your dc connectors with coaxial cable instead of untwisted pair, particularly if the power supply chasis is plastic to reduce emi.

Here you go:

Nothing snazzy about this one... just Mains in- two power transformers (2x12V per transformer)- 4 bridge-rectifiers -4 big electrolytic caps- 4 7809 voltage regulators- 2 outputs per regulator.

Yeah, but I didn't have any coax at home... and that stuff is expensive... that untwisted pair cable is cheap...
On that note- I hate soldering DC Cables.. idk why.. but I feel like those DC jacks are a pure pain in the butt.
