Nice! There are some Russian things I'm interested in (LOMO microphones, and the typical electronic music junk). Perhaps when I shore up a budget I will give you a yell. I would want to make this worth your while in either trade or cash. That said, my new hobby seems to be buying broken stuff on reverb and fixing it, so I'm sure some old poly synth or decrepit piece of shit will slow me down.melko wrote: ↑Tue Apr 13, 2021 4:41 pmIn Russia, those are easily obtained for under $50 in decent condition.crochambeau wrote: ↑Tue Apr 13, 2021 2:37 pm I got super excited about this:
But then I watched a demo of one and learned it is only a somewhat resonant EQ, a flanger, a phaser, a mild distortion with sub octave, and a boost, and not some wild "guitar synthesizer". https://reverb.com/item/37922732-lider- ... vintage-fx
Still pretty cool, but not "I am ready to drop $200 on a broken effects pedal" cool.
For example:

Shipping to the US via Russian Post (slow as hell, but works) should be around $50 as well.
If you want, I can help you arrange a deal.
Most FX in Lider are meh, but it has a very special suboctave circuit. More info here:

The only reason why I didn't get one is that the thing takes up too much precious "studio" space. Soviet hardware is almost universally too big & heavy for what it does.
I did like the octave down sound, reminds me I have Stone Splitters to build.
