    • @OscillationOverdrive

      @ For this product, you COULD make the pedalboard out of legos with slots for the pedal. Using the name LEGO Pedals could get you a cease and decist letter from their lawyer. But showing them next to a LEGO block would be a good move to depict size & say they’re the size of a LEGO or two or whatever.

    This is super cool! As a bass player who uses an always-on compressor, I would absolutely love to see a compressor in this form factor that I could tuck away under my board and not have it take up valuable real estate - it would be especially great if you could give it at least 3 or 4 knobs and/or internal mini-pots for finer-tuned control. Subscribed and can't wait to hear more!

      Internal mini-pots might be difficult when the pots they use on-top already are mini/micro-pots 😄​ @olinthus I'm guessing they are RV09 or RK09 snap-in mini pots?

    I’m a big fan of the Hotone Skyline series of pedals as well as the Joyo series in the same form factor. And yet, I’ve always said to myself “that needs to be smaller actually.” Congratulations on making the pedal world so much bigger by making the pedals so much smaller.

    How about... make a strap holder with a 9v or rechargeable 9v built in?
    Perfect for acoustic-electirc players to have a second preamp/overdrive right on the guitar.
    When the others and pedalboard come out there will be marketing opportunities to pair with some vendor with tiny amps (yamaha THR20 type) for a "Real" office or dormroom rig.
    Simply brilliant design.
    Great job!

    I think the various keychain fuzz pedals are slightly smaller but this is probably the smallest with any kind of controls and the ability to turn it off which makes it much more usable. I'm not sure if it was intentional but you also managed to solve the problem other tiny pedals have of being so light that the patch cables keep it suspended in the air. I can't wait for a tiny fuzz with controls. Any chance you guys are also working on a tiny phaser?

    1. This is beautifully absurd. I love it.

    • @olinthus

      You could literally tape a 9v to it.
      Yes Korgs and Pods and whatever are fun, but so is analogue. I have over half a dozen digital multi-effect pedals, but even the decent presets and emulators don't sound always sound like the real thing or perform as well.
      Stacking pedals on my Boss or Zoom unit does not give me the flexibility and range of the real pedal circuits. Fine for practice, fun for jamming, but lousy for recording or performance.
