SELLING!!!

I decided to sell a couple of the first Loopy units I have built: the money will go towards developing other ideas I have for this project.

They are currently listed on my ebay for the UK only, but if you are over overseas and interested, please don't hesitate to get in touch, we can work out the shipping costs

New patient on the bench: the list of broken pedals to repair is getting longer every week. Maybe I should stop buying and actually fix something...

Another patient in the house, another one for the shelf of the "I'll fix it as soon as I have time", which seems to be never these days

Broken DS-1 off ebay... somebody tried to power it with a nitrogen bomb?

Any suggestion on what to do with it?

This special edition black on black is even more special too, absolutely incredible.

A new tool on the bench!

I have 4 PCB left for my Boss DS-1 retrofit project, plus 4 microcontroller for the true bypass.
If they go reasonably fast, I'll other PCB made, otherwise that's where this project ends.

PM me if interested.

After 3 PCB layout revisions, I have finally completed the first fully working prototype of the Boss DS-1 PCB retrofit.

Anybody interested in samples?








I am hoping to put some assembly manual only soon, but in the meanwhile, if you are interested in a PCB, let me know!

While a wait for a new batch of pcb for my main project, let's get started a side project provided by my friend at

Just got a badly modified MXR Distortion+ in the post... what shall I do with it?

Just published a page on the website on "Stepaside", the step sequencer. Check it out!

Stepaside is a step sequencer for electric guitar. Strongly inspired by the incredible Zvex Seek Wah, my idea was to add into a compact format additional features, like a tap tempo, which was not part of the original version of this pedal (it was introduced in the Super Seek Wah). In order to deal w...

Very quick pcb fabrication for my DS-1 retrofit. Except a minor error, the fit test is positive.

Shall I build?
