Feeler: Akai Deep Impact

Recommended Posts

So, I have this rare and sought after synth pedal. It's not getting the use that it deserves. But on the other hand I'm a snob and like to have it just because it's there if I ever do need it.

So this is just a feeler. Not sure I want to sell, but I need some money, so thought I'd see if anyone can tempt this out of my fingers. IF I were to sell I'd want cash, but please run your trades by me just in case, as you never know!!

Can be seen here:

The Mutron is quite simply the best filter ever made. Simplicity in operation and the most musical filter sounds ever created IMO! Bit big and hard to power, but grab yourself a couple of GigRig virtual batteries and you can run it off a 9v Supply (this is what I do and it works a treat). You might want a True Bypass loop or have it modded because the Bypass is crap - but all in all it's the greatest! I'll let you know if I come to sell it and you haven't got one yet!! Hell, you're only in Essex...If you want to pop round and try it be my guest!! ;)

It's a modded Russian Big Muff, made by our very own Toasted. Loads of beefy bass fuzz...No low end loss whatsoever!

I don't have the box or manual for this, but I do have the original Akai power supply.

Cheers!

Edit: Here's a link to the two most recent Deep Impacts sold on eBay UK:

Using those as price guides I'd be after somewhere in the middle ;)

Forgot to mention, I will include the Loop Master tap tempo switch that can be seen below the Deep Impact in the picture (the small 2inch square box). It plugs into the Program down jack and basically allows you to scroll backwards through the presets, as the 2 original footswitches are program up, and effect on/off. Nifty ;)
