Moon Sounds reverb

22/2/2015

0 Comments

 
This great piece was posted on our Facebook page by Jacques form Moon Sounds Records, so we thought we'd repost it here.

From shoegaze/noise-pop to lo-fi/post-goth, the Moon Sounds Records and Butterfly Effect Pedals 'Moon Sounds Reverb' (MSR013) fits perfectly onto any rig!!! 

A truly versatile reverb, we've only heard positive comments about this pedal!

One Ausie fan recorded material heavily with the Moon Sounds Reverb. Check out Locust Revival's 'When We Die I Hope Our Graves Are Side By Side'. 

https://locustrevivalmademesad.bandcamp.com/…/when-we-die-i…

Each pedal is build by hand from the ground up by the duo that is Butterfly Effects. Their meticulous attention to detail and improvement on old circuits is why we own several pedals from them. 

One last 'Early-bird' edition of the Moon Sounds Reverb remains on the Moon Sounds Records BandCamp page here:

http://moonsoundsrecords.bandcamp.com/al…/moon-sounds-reverb

After that, the pedals will have a 'standard enclosure' that's not sparkly and feature a different font for the same price. Same guts though! 

We may even pick up a second one for ourselves!! 

Can't wait to hear the new tracks Sansyou have been recording with the reverb pedal. 

Here's a video demo they made with it!

What a beauty! I've made Danger Birds in white and in plain metal with dymo labels, but I'm loving the aqua look. I am a sucker for 'surf' colours though.

Oooh-errrr missus! 
But no, I haven't decided to expand the services I offer - it's the name for the A/B/C box that I've just completed.

Happy New Year!

I just realised that it's been a while since I posted an update. How did it get to be half way through January already? I hope everyone had a great Christmas and New Year. I enjoyed a bit of a break myself, which explains my lack of updates recently.

The facebook competition went well and the winner is now in possession of their very own Butterfly Effect Pedals t-shirt. Thanks to everyone who liked, entered and most importantly shared the facebook competition and page, to help spread the word. It's much appreciated. We're up to 520 likes now!

I have quite a few orders at the moment, which is great. It's keeping me busy and out of mischief. Work in progress pics below. 
Got a couple of interesting rack unit effects to build as well as the usual pedals. I'm building a spring reverb into a rack unit and putting a Guill-o-Tone + Aurora Drive together into another.

Cat-face has been 'helping' in that special way that only cats know how - which basically means sitting on things I need to read, trying to trip me up etc.

The latest Tone Rodent is coming along nicely, so here are a few pics with the hardware in place.  Still need to load and wire up the innards, but the enclosure is looking pretty good.

Clone of the Marshall Bluesbreaker MK1 pedal.

You just can't photograph this pedal!
No matter how hard I try, I cannot get a photo of the Blues Blaster that does the colour justice. It's an outrageous flourescent orange and the camera just can't reproduce it. 

So here are a couple of photos of the pedal in soft light.

And here is the closest I can get using the flash. But it's still MUCH brighter than that.  :-)

LOTS going on at the moment. I'm really busy - and I'm not complaining.

I've been making the boards for a Fluidic Space Analogue Chorus, a Vox Repeat Percussion Clone and a Blues Blaster, which is a clone of a Marshall Bluesbreaker MkI.
A lovely dark red sparkle finish Bad MFKR is coming together nicely.
And a couple more nice pics of the A/B box before it goes to its new home - just because.

Waiting for the postie

14/10/2014

So, while I'm waiting for the bloody postman to turn up (*if* he turns up, that is!), I'm thinking about the Orange and Matamp amp-in-a-box pedals.
Although not finished, I was playing around with both last night and was surprised by how different they sounded.
The two circuits are very similar, although the Matamp one has the drive pre-eq and the Orange has its drive post-eq. That may well explain the tighter bottom end on the Orange.

Anyway, I'm thinking that I may have to do two versions of each: a smaller, 125B enclosure with five knobs (treble, bass, gain, boost and master volume) and a larger (1590BB) enclosure with the FAC switch.

The FAC is a six position switch which changes the input capacitance (and therefore tone) to one of the gain stages. Again, the position of the FAC is different on the Orange and Matamp models. The Orange has the FAC situated after both the eq and drive sections, whereas the Matamp FAC is situated before the drive and eq sections.

Aaanyhooo. Once they are done, I shall recommence work on the Sabbath tone pedal, which is a modified Rangemaster treble booster into a Laney Supergroup-in-a-box.
Unlike Catalinbread's Sabbra Cadabra (which sounds awesome, BTW), mine will have independently switchable treble boost and distortion and more knobs (two on the TB, six on the distortion side) as I want it to be as flexible as possible.

A/B box with switchable input impedance

A custom A/B box built for a bass player who uses both a bass guitar and upright bass. 

There is a passive volume control for each channel and channel 2 has a switchable input impedance (1Mohm/10Mohm).

This wee beauty was completed today. I think you'll agree that it's looking lovely with its matt white finish and matching white knobs.

Moon Sounds Reverb limited edition batch

It is ON! The limited edition version of the Moon Sounds Reverb, with silver sparkle finish and script graphics is available for pre-order now. There are only 5 available, and 3 are already spoken for!

Work is progressing well. The silver sparkle boxes are looking gorgeous and the decals are all printed and ready to go on. All the circuit boards are built so assembly (and lots and lots of layers of lacquer) come next.

There will be another chance to get your hands on one of these awesome reverbs if you miss the limited edition one. We'll be posting information on this soon.

Please check the Moon Sounds page for more details.

It's just my Twin Peaks dual distortion/reverb pedal spotted at the Big Star Third rehearsal in LA today. No biggie. I'm not even vaguely excited by this. Not even a bit...

    About me

    I'm Mark. I LOVE effect pedals. I started out making them for myself. I have 'quite a few'.  
    Then I made a few pedals for friends, then everyone.

    With some help from the missus we'll keep you updated on work in progress and any news.
