I'd love to do/see this one

http://www.tcelectronic.com/rottweiler.asp

look, its the first pedal cashing in on the thrash revival.

Hilarious. Guess it's time to build that HM-2 derivative I've been thinking about.

...and it's out! http://www.thomann.de/dk/tc_electronic_roettweiler.htm
Suppose i'm actually gonna have to buy a pedal this time...

(yeah yeah - call me high gain junkie...)

Well, at least they're well built.

And reverse it !!!

It looks an interesting pedal with active tone controls, I would take a guess thats its probs al SMD components qhich I usually find them easier to trace.

Don't worry. I'll post all sorts of pic's once i get my hands on this thing I suppose i owe this to the community after my last building spree of various high gainers...

Any news on this one yet, has your postman been yet ?

Nah. Can't justify shredding out 125.- euro for a pedal before around january... Christmas is coming, and i've been spending a lot of early christmas presents on myself this year ( My pedal collection has been expanding with 4-5 pedals per month since july )

Ok thanks for keeping us updated.

Holy crap, that sounded awesome
Someone buy it fast!

Anyone bought it yet?

...maybe with the intention to send it back after retracing?

yes, someone has said they are buying it soon. I'm sure once they do, it will be posted.

Nopes! That sounds like a keeper to me That's the first time in over a year, that I've actually wanted to buy a pedal...

You will buy it for 129€, instead of building a clone for less than 29€?

I'm betting it's the same pcb as the TC Dark matter that i'm trying to reverse at the moment as there are places for lots of other components in this pedal and the layout is identical. if so it shoould be an easier task to work out. Hopefully.

I can't help it! I'm a huge TC fanboy...

I actually kind'a hope so! They're talking about soft clipping on the website, so i'm guessing something along the lines of two successing soft clipping stages at some point - a bit like the MI Audio Tube Zone, but with diodes in the feedback loop instead of diodes to ground...

I ordered it from thomann today. It's on ot's way to Denmark now!
