Name change? Yup

Phatkat..... that was the name for the pedals I originally chose. Named for a very...ummm, unique flabby kitty cat named Boris. The idea was to put a vector graphic of Boris' face on the pedals. But it turns out that there isn't usually real estate left on the enclosures'after knobs/switches/labels/etc..

So, in the spirit of keeping it simple, the new name/logo is....
CCFX.

Vibe-modded Phase 45 circuits. Almost as good as....

Ah....another phaser.
And like all phasers I build, it gets the "Univibe mod" treatment.


The added "Depth" control can blend out the dry signal, making it more of a pitch vibrato effect. Nice added touch.
I still haven't decided whether to go with MXR-style knobs, as in the video, or old-school appliance-style, like the the photo above.
