Those of you that have tried any MP pedals so far - how did they live up to your expectations ???

And what do you think of whats ahead ??

I did a couple of fun videos over the weekend for the Fire Red Fuzz and Sky Blue OD

Great stuff as always, Donner!!!

I'd say that the MP Pedals have met my expectations, as I do not believe Bjorn would allow himself to be associated with any product that didn't sound as though he could have built it himself. Like I've said in other places and in my reviews before, it's a testament not only to the talent of the workforce physically building the pedals, but also to the designer in that he was able to create circuits that would sound unmistakeably like his own, but wouldn't require the individual tuning that the BJF line needs. To be able to get such a uniquely BJF sound, yet still have it be consistently reproduceable by others, is quite the accomplishment IMO.

I am most excited about what is to come from the MP line, and will be watching with great interest!!!

Doc

Thanks for the SBOD clips. I've been waiting on this one since I heard of it. Any idea when it's going to hit the big retailers in the US?

the sky blue od demo rocks! thanks donner! great camera angle...you should donnerbox a few of them sparkly sky blue .... The only MP pedal i have had the honor of trying was the DBD and i LOVED it, however I have not been able to buy one because I am always buying lo fi loopers and such...but delay is my next pedal purchase

woop woop

Donner,

Thanks for the videos. So, the Nunya was the SBOD, huh. I can check that off my "to do" list. I had watched that video several times before you revealed the "answer".

I don't own any of the MP pedals yet but, I will....any videos of the Tiny Orange Phaser out there??

ITS ALL GOOD!!

HA, yeah the Nunya = Sky Blue OD its pretty amazing, the volume control is the only 'normal' control on there ---
I think the FRF and SBOD will step things up a bit for MP - the LGW already existed and the MRD is a specialized distortion, but I think these two new ones will have a much wider appeal.....


Well if you look at the Phaserama Purple Plum and Folk Phaser comparison video you should have a pretty good idea what your in for - the Tiny Orange (Maybe we need a naming contest on this one ) is mostly the sounds of both with the controls of the Plum...

I've got an MP LGW and DBD. The Delay kicked my old favorite off the board immediately(with no delay). My wish feature would be tap tempo which I miss but overlook due to the pristine sound of the DBD. The LGW with my Honey Bee is killer. I've got a friend who likes to play my multi-pedal setup and she constantly goes back to the LGW into HB combo. My wish feature for it would be an EGDM trimmer for the highs. Both have exceded my expectations and survived some pretty tough competition for space on my board. As far as the future, I'm ready to unload a few pedals so I can get the new MP's when they arrive. Can't wait!!!

Thanks Donner,

I can't believe, knowing what I know about the other BJFE products, that the MP line hasn't just exploded onto the market. I'm certain the FRF and SBOD will escalate things if not.

Definitely think you should have a naming contest for the "new" phaser...
Tiny Orange is lacking in uummpphhh....should at least be Micro Orange Phaser.... or ...Mini Magenta Phaser...or Little Lilac Phaser.........
...or Power Persimmon Phaser

...how about...Phenomenal Phurple Phaser (silent 'H" in Phurple or course)..or just Purple Power Phaser...

.the Mad professor did use the same name for both versions of the LGW so why not just use Purple Plum Phaser...it has a certain zing to it . Of course, if all the boxes are already painted orange, we have a problem!!

Have a great day...can hardly wait to try the "______" Phaser and the SBOD....

hmmm you have a point on the Phaser - there are only 4 Purple Plums ( actually there were more Folk Phasers than Plums) and I always thought a phaser had that sort of elliptical plum shaped movement .....hmmmm
