My custom built delay unit - The Springboard Dub

So here is my first post on the new Gnostic Rocket Blog. As I have a job that now allows me an inordinate amount of time on the internet, watch this space for all kinds of goodies for the gear heads. Tonight I'll be posting some pics and sound files from an experiment I did last night utilising a circuit bent Speak 'n Math, a Korg X911 Guitar Synth and my Boss SP303 sampler.

For now here are some sound files and my gear list.
