Have you wired the master volume as in the HRM models?
(If not the OD master output is usually switchable to the master volume input.)
I was thinking the same thing about the MV setup but it looks like a global master after the loop perhaps?
Yup - essentially the output volume from the "dumbleator" is the master. I had considered doing a PPIMV so the PI could be driven a bit, but obviously that messes with the feedback...

Right, you wanted gutshots - I'm afraid many feel ill at the sight of spilled guts, so you have been warned!! Also an aerial shot, to give an idea of major component layout. Component choice was mostly to do with available recovered parts!

Like the built-in handles.

The chassis finish is also clever. I use mop on as well.

I've found "Sharpie" marker pens That are too dried up to use, if broken open and soaked in alcohol for a gloss or acetone for a matte finish, give a " tie-dyed" look that can be oversprayed with a clearcoat.

The clear knobs are another good idea. Let that cool finish show.

Nice.

Good one with the Sharpies - I wouldn't have thought of that! Maybe time to buy the "80's Glam" theme 24-pack I spotted in the supermarket!!

The next one I do I'm planning to etch control knob labelling. Tie-die might work nicely with that. Do you use primer at all? I did with the "granite" effect.
