Ah Ha, Just landed -




Iron Ether Xerograph Deluxe Envelope Filter and an Iron Ether Frantabit Sample Rate/Bit Reduction monster.

Glorious.

Still a bit "Chaffed" by the Import Duty / Parcel Farce handling charges.

Let us know how you get on with the Filter , cause I recon they'd be a good match .

BTW how much were they each , and how much more were the charges ?

Hi Paul,

I have an Oxide, and think it's a very cool Fuzz, which is quite different from my other (mainly Muff based) Fuzz pedals.
You can see the pricing details on the Iron Ether site -

I got raided for £42.83 Import Duty/VAT and ParcelFarce "Handling Charges" plus they sat on the pedals for about 9 days, so I only got the pedals 13 days after dispatch.

This is the added pain of any potential pedal purchase from outside the EU coming into the UK, irregardless of the pedal maker.

These are well worth it though I think.

Oh yes indeed, they should be mandatory.

I'm upto 4 EP-2's now, 1 each for the Xero and Frantabit, as well as two for Fooger fun via a CP-251, never mind the Ernie Ball pedals for the Eventides.
I might have to build a board just for volume and expression pedals.

I'm beginning to get swamped in cable spaghetti, so much so, I'm thinking of replacing the fixed EP-2 cables with a female socket, and using my own normal cables to connect the EP-2.

Is the Xerograph and EP-2 a good contender for the Moog LPF then? Looks interesting.

I had the Oxide for a bit, but I decided I probably wasn't going to use it for... anything, so I shifted it along, even though it sounded pretty cool. Preferred my ungated fuzz for Big synthy octave pedal tones though I think.

Hi,

Yep I'm going to endeavor to do some clips this weekend (if it's a rainy as suggested anyway)
there are already a few clips up on Youtube -

Some clips also on the Frantabit thread over at TB.

I'll do something a bit more abstract probably.
