Build Level: Intermediate
Based On: EQD® Disaster Transport Jr™
From the Earthquaker Devices website
"The Disaster Transport JR is an analog voiced digital delay with 625ms delay time with an all
analog dry signal path and true bypass switching. It was designed as an anti-modern delay for
those who appreciate a nice vintage tape echo with all it's peculiarities. Its unique tone control
doubles as a noise filter on longer delay settings and really helps the delay shine with a dirty signal.
The mix control allows you to boost the effected signal to nearly 4x the original signal level and
the repeats control goes from one signal repeat to near infinite repeats all the way through to self
oscillation."
The Disaster Transport Jr™ is essentially a Tonepad Rebote 2.5 circuit with a lot of altered
values. It's the YetAnotherReBote of delays. And, it is a fine sounding PT2399 delay being that. In
addition to the altered voicing, a Big Muff tone control has been added to the wet signal (you might
remember the mbp Zero Point SDX2 from way back in 2015) and clipping diodes in the feedback
path. The Transponder adds deadastronaut's
• MIX: Amount of wet (delay) signal mixed with the dry.
• TIME: Delay time (up to around 600ms or so).
• RPT: Delay repeats from one to "infinity" and/or self-oscillation.
• TONE: A Big Muff style tone control with unique tonal shaping.
• MOD: When switched on (right pos.), a subtle envelope-controlled modulation is added to the
wet signal which is controlled by picking dynamics.
Terms of Use: You are free to use purchased Transponder circuit boards for both DIY and small commercial operations. You may not offer Transponder PCBs for
resale or as part of a "kit" in a commercial fashion. Peer to peer re-sale is fine, though.
