WOW - it's been a while since I visited...
...Things have been absolutely nuts, so the samples were as good as I could get - I truly would have liked to have sent the UV out for other folks' samples, but I couldn't dally - VG needed that unit for some reviews...hope to see that in dec/jan issue.
It's a hard thing to capture fully, but you should get a feel for the stereo effect....that was my goal.
As for the side mounted control.....you don't need an external pedal - you can use one, but otherwise use your foot to roll the knob toward you (faster) or push away (slower) -
The LED changes color when "Live" or "Bypassed"....but blinks in time all the while.
The UberVibe should have been available by now, but the particular LDR I chose (only one I liked - very similar to the originals I reverse engineered) has been in very low supply - - - now "out" for another month....so I wait.
Look for some other new stuff very soon, including a combo pedal I developed at the behest of a certain famous touring guitarist (sorry....I won't drop names) - Can't really chat anymore on that one until he has some road time with it.
Please, if anyone has any questions regarding any products, please contact me directly at retromanATcharter.net (replace AT with @...trying to avoid some of the spam) - I just don't have the time to scour the boards and would hate to miss an opportunity to help someone with a question regarding the Retroman line-up.
Best regards,
Joe

You can run in mono - or stereo - most folks I employed for feedback during development loved the stereo feature for recording and live performance. But again, you can play mono just fine.
Selectable JFET Buffer - Use it or don't - it's a feature that some really like (brighter response vs. the vintage tone we all know)...more of a "modern/clean" tonality.
LED Color - thanks for the feedback - was working off feedback rec'd to date...from the old school of "green means pass" "red means live" in a recording vernacular - other feedback is more than welcome (mo data = betta data). Simple enough to swap two wires to satisfy a cusomer either way.
Speed knob - the knob location can be moved (within reason) for each individual customer - location was based upon opinion and feedback rec'd to date - option of a different side location or slightly larger side knob to achieve a slightly proud (relative to the top face) location would be no issue at all.![]()
I live for feedback (...enough on the clips already) - for those who haven't dealt with me, customer satisfaction is #1 and my skin is tougher than concrete .... so this (and road trials whenever possible) is how the new stuff gets dialed before release and is constantly upgraded and improved over time ... so thanks for the opinions - every issue reveals an opportunity.
Best regards,
Joe
