Are Cog Effects still a going concern?

[admiralchew]

The T-16s from Tuesday’s release have already started arriving! Happy days! It’s even better than I remembered. It tracks extremely well, it’s super subby and the new finish looks great!

 

 

Tom makes some of (many of, to be honest) my favourite pedals. I’m glad he’s doing okay and I’m glad he’s building again. Long may both of those things continue!

I would have loved to pick up a T-16 from this batch, but just at the wrong time for me.

Inshall definitely be looking out for those skimmed down T-47’s though! Very excited for those!

Nice, I’ve been after one for a long time, I’ll keep my eye on the site

I’m thrilled for you. My very first octave was a v1 T-16. 
 

Can’t wait to get a small T-47.

Thanks!

 

Starting with a T-16?! Bold! Judging by some of the other threads I’ve seen your pedals since then have been equally good.

 

It tracks incredibly well. No glitches down to G#/Ab and is extremely subby.

 

Plus I had a T-16 toy as a kid so happy days! Thanks, Tom!

What's the change between v1 and v2 on the T-16? Anyone has any hint?

These new ones will be based on the v2 which solved the low output volume “problem” on the octave signal (an inherent flaw of the OC-2).

I think that is true. I then sold it to @CameronJ.

Yes, sorry my limited expression. How is it solved in the PCBA? Some extra components, maybe?

On the OC-2 it was achieved by desoldering the connection to the -2 octave signal. I suspect it may have been done on the Cog by using a lower value resistor.

Then I bought it and still have it! Got close to swapping for an oc5 but it does what I need and my son calls it the spiderman pedal.

Does anyone know if there are substantive differences between Mini Tarkins that have LPF and HPF switches that have up/down positions versus those with up/middle/down?

T-16s live.

Tempted but holding out for the T-47.

Got one! Thanks for the reminder @admiralchew

Am I too late? They seem to be out of stock again.

They stayed up for about 40 minutes before seemingly selling out again. Hopefully Tom will keep producing them regularly.

Used Knightfall in my local. The Tarkin has gone:

Fantastic drive pedal, I still have the prototype that Tom and I devised, can't say that it's going anywhere!

Thanks for the heads up @Quatschmacher! I appreciate it. Happily, another BCer was kind enough to sell a Knightfall 66 to me, but someone will be getting an excellent pedal at a good price if they go for it.

 

I’m still in the lookout for a T-70 and R-1 though! Hopefully Tom will produce some more at some point.

 

@Sibob that is a thing of beauty!

[Stofferson]

my T16 from last weeks batch arrived yesterday, very good indeed!

[Pamparius]

My tracking history didn’t update since Monday, it’s still accepted at the post office.

 

Let’s see how/if it makes it to the continent. It’s just my second pedal purchase this year and hopefully it will come before the weekend. It’s my first time dealing with Royal Mail so I don’t know what to expect.

Any news concerning the next t16 batch? I’m no social media guy… 🙂
