Does Mad Professor goop their stuff any longer?
Hi
I have suggested no goop on the Mad Professor pcb series and none of my designs therefore have that. On the HW series there was a problem with the neoprane they used being too thin and so factory suggested they'd use a rubber housing which I think is good since it makes any short circuit impossible. I will say it does make a little pain to set bias precisely exactly nice on the HW MYT and also bias on TOP-setting either of those perfectly is easiest by ear while not so easy instruction for someone to set on a scope. This means MP pcb designed by me have no goop and no sanded parts, MP HW series designed by me if older edition is wrapped in neoprane and rubberband and later editions have a plastic container that the pcb rests in. Generally pcb models have the latest upgrades since changes can only be done when pcb is remade.
So actually when asked by MP crew if I'd like pcb or part of pcb gooped I have asked them not to do so
Simble is designed by a Finn and is manufactured and marketed by Mad Professor Ltd, while per definition it cannot be a Mad Professor pedal since Mad professor Ltd a while ago elected to not have BJF-design printed on the pedals as it anyway would be evident that all Mad Professor products are designed by BJF, the Mad Professor himself.
I did play the Simble at NAMM and thought it sounded like something lots of people would like. Subconsiously and soundwise it reminded me of a Zendrive but it did not do the fluff at the end of notes that the hardcore Zendrive guys swear by.
