I'm also in the wider is better than taller camp, but as a general run, a Fulldrive 2 is right about the most space I'd like to spend on this 2 stomper. I think the 1590BB are like an inch smaller on all accounts, but I might be wrong. I am really excited for this. I have been looking for a subtle phaser to do some spacey stuff. the mix knob and flashing LED are a sure winner. and the ramp- well I'll hae to hear it to understand it fully, but it will probably sound cool with the uber delayed layered ambient music I am working on these days...

Just out of curiosity, did Donner decide to provide finished enclosures for the folk projects or is the plan to move forward with unfinished?
Much smaller collection than the days of yore . . .

I can, is there a standard drilling pattern everyone wants to use ---- I could have them predrilled even .......


or what enclosure will work best ???

I could do a variety of finishes or stick to a theme or at least a color

I am wiring up the main circuit of the Folk pFaze tonight!!! I am using a PCB for a phase 45 which is what the bulk of this circuit is based on, I will do the ramp circuit on the breadboard and hopefully be testing this in a couple days. Stay Tuned.

jfromel, Is this condition 'Green' or a mottled, indefinable hue?

I'm only asking 'cause it's 10 days later than your apparently positive post.
I do understand you work a regular job so if it looks like I'm hounding you, perish the thought.
Power Chords don't contain a third, so the maj&min qualities are not present. Heavy distortion adds harmonic content, and only perfect intervals have enough consonance to be clearly articulated at high distortion levels_DFunk

How bout a mottled green, I did not have enough JFET's here to get a good match and have them on my next mouser order.
