The easiest way to screw an american is to make them mad at someone else first.

With the onslaught of AI slop and the generally downward trend in communal humanities, I'm seriously contemplating shooting on film again. Just like analog tape, the expense will filter my output to only that which is most intentional.

An outgoing threesome.

Scumbags, across the board.

Previously posted distortion characteristic was caused by current starvation on the negative power rail.

Here's a before I remedied the issue shot, in case the void is interested.

Time to play with a VCA!

The Dunning-Kruger party is on target to recreate a bunch of Trofim Lysenkos.

I've been kicking the VCA can down the road for years now, aware of the importance of this function in almost everything I do. Hopefully these boards will deliver a suitable benchmark that will push a thing or two out of the development stew.

I dislike everything about this.

Lookin' good1!

A trough! I haven't seen one of those in years.

May it be brief, and its passing... effective.

Prototype build has led to some interesting observations. Clearly not indicative of a production circuit, as those would not be through hole or have MKC ERO caps on the output. Nice to go unhinged on a benchmark though.

Early hours with the prototype build shows some promise.

A couple of builds hit the shop today: reverb.com/shop/rochamb...

Yes! I'm aiming to keep my grubby mitts out of the videos, so I'm going to use the foot to actuate the foot switches and then chop the video up to illustrate the different settings of a given build.

At some point prototype precision diode ring modulation boards will make the long trek to my mail box. Nothing to get excited about yet, it's still in experimental territory.
