That looks very busy to me... I wouldn't be surprised if they have cut the battery compartment out to make room for the mod and then fixed the pedal so it doesnt pivot when you press the bypass switch.

What a lot of work... I wonder if it's worth it?

Could the knobs be some kind of filter? I was looking at analogman's pages earlier, and there were some DD mods listed.

Crazy, ugly thing. Doesn't look ergonomic at all.

As far as I understood the translation there's a tempo knob and you can change the tone on the wet sound, but I can be wrong....

hard to say, but it does look busy, side knobs will likely interfere with mouning in a BCB/6/6g/3 ....
maybe someone here can translate or find this in English

OK, so there's a tap tempo switch on top, and one of the side knobs is a treble roll-off for quasi analogue repeats - What's the second side knob for?


Very cool pedal mod, btw...

Think the other one is Tone control for the wet output

Erm... I would have thought these were one and the same - i.e. treble roll-off on repeats IS just a tone control for for the wet (repeats) output... What is the other control for?
