long shot request for help

a couple weeks back i stumbled on a website. a guy makes custom and one-off audio pedals (some guitar, some for other purposes) and sells them. he had at least a couple dozen different devices for sale, maybe more. they all look home-made

i recall that only a handful of the devices were guitar pedals, but a search for those brough me to his page

one of his devices was a hand-held thing that picks up electrical and/or magnetic waves. the idea is to walk around city streets and pick all kinds of weird sounds from around you

i thought i bookmarked the site, but did not. can't find it in my history

maybe using the initials LS?

finally, of copurse,if you know of anyone else making and selling things like this i'd love to know about them

Phase 2 of the boost pedal build.

- solder resistors
- solder diodes
- solder capacitors

I still need to add the ICs to finish this phase, but I'm waiting on extra parts to be delivered.

Some of those resistors are really, really tiny with only a millimetre or two between traces and pads. Soldering was tricky.

Next phase, after the ICs are in, is to wire up to the switches and jacks in the enclosure.

In the SPD vs. SPD-SL showdown: SPD wins!

SPD-SL:
Good:
- lots of shoes available
- very sporty
- extremely lightweight pedals and shoes
Bad:
- can't walk in those shoes... at all.
- harder to clip into vs. SPD (imho)
- any activity except pedaling is silly
- good for only one thing, which is racing bicycles

SPD:
Good:
- easier to clip into
- you can actually walk in the shoes
- you could shop in them
- many SPD/flat pedal options
Bad:
- heavier pedals
- not as sporty
- you won't feel like a proper MAMIL without clomping around in sporty but impractical bike shoes

(my own opinions, as a not-a-real-cyclist-who-owns-no-lycra)

Scott the F is implicit Baxter

@RuVerb I don't fully understand #delay . I get dotted-eighth, slapback, long ones where notes overlap, increasing fidelity from tape to analog to digital, and modulation and eq on the repeats, but I don't know how to use it.
I either just turn it on and play through it, or I set it up to copy a specific thing someone else figured out, but I don't feel like I'm *playing* it.
Same for a lot of my #pedals , come to think of it.
