This has long been my favourite octave pedal - which took me 6 months to chase down originally - as they first weren’t available for overseas purchase, and then were in very short supply.

The Triplegraph has an amazingly robust construction - beautifully engineered - and a pedal that gets daily use from me! I would like to see some enhancements to the format - so we get more DigiTech Whammy / Boss S-Bend functionality here also - so we can set the Rise and Fall Time, and select additional ...

I covered the very first CopperSound Mini pedal - the V1 Gravity Bomb Boost all the way back in 2017 as part of my Best Mini Boost Pedals overview then. Coppersound then released an updated V2 Gravity Bomb alongside a brand new Renegade Silicon 2-Transistor Fuzz - back in October of last year.

I had intended to cover the brand new mini pair back then - but never quite got around to it - so for this week’s release I’m covering all 4 recent / new mini pedals - where the most recent additions ...

So it’s about time for another round of ’12 Degrees of Saturation’ - featuring an updated selection and including most of the more recently released notable Mini Gain Pedals. Please note that as before - this is something of a Grey Science with simply approximated best fit positioning - as all those pedals have slightly different gain ranges, and certain ones within each selection / category can have vastly more extended range than others - and often cover more than one of the categories.

^ 2022 Final Arrangement - December

So the time has come again to to the final reckoning of the layout and composition of this year’s ultimate pedal chain arrangement. I’ve introduced a new ’⚓’ symbol into the visual - which indicates those Slots / Pedals that are unchanged from last year’s Class of 2021 arrangement. That element really is testament to how much has changed between years. It’s also indicative of how much I love those particular pedals - and pretty much find them ...

I’m the proud owner of the previous version of this - the Passive V1 Edition with simple Polarity Switch. I was a touch surprised when the original Telegraph was discontinued - but I understand why that happened now.

Coppersound have taken all the engineering R&D and learning from their massive Tripplegraph success and incorporated that in their Telegraph pedal - which is much more robust now.

Those engineering improvements alone were considered insufficient for a new launch - so ...

2021 was another very significant year for me - and one that signals that I probably need to slow down now - as I picked up well over 200 new pedals during the year - which really is excessive. Storage is starting to become an issue - and I will need to be a lot more prudent and strategic in my acquisitions next year!

So more than 200 new ones, and in fact 25 slots were switches up during the year - where only 12 were totally untouched and unchanged. A slew of new gain pedals as always - ...

I’ve had some fun picking these up in sort of random order in the end! My first acquisition was the only limited yellow edition one I have, and that I obviously picked up at the right time - the Gamechanger Plasma Coil - which regularly puts an appearance on slot #15. Actually the third pedal in the series!

I had watched the TMR Mantic Flex come and go - as I already had the more capable Pro version of that pedal, and it was a similar story with the Bumble Buzz - which I wasn’t sure was my ...

April has been another pretty formidable month - and at last I have the CopperSound Triplegraph in my hands - which presented some challenges in being accommodated within the rig. I’ve had to significantly adjust and rejig various elements and areas - including of course the format of the above reference visual.

This indicates the physical position of the Triplegraph at position #14 in terms of physical pedal placement - where it sits just before the CBA Automatone Preamp, while it’s ...

I’ve variously relayed on this site how I’ve been chasing this pedal since it first appeared in very limited circulation on September 28th last year. I initially held off acquiring the pedal from the US (Third Man Records) in the expectation that the pedal might appear eventually and soon enough in European distribution, and I would save myself some money on the delivery, customs and import fees. As it turns out I’m not sure any Triplegraph pedals have arrived for sale in ...
