Subject: modding or designing guitar pedals as MOTM modules

From: "djxpat" <djxpat@...>

Sorry if this thread has come up before, but does anyone have any
experience (or wisdom) about modifying (or desdigning) pedal effects as
modules?

I know there are various modules out there designed to work with guitar
level signals, but I'm talking about designing guitar effects (fuzz,
flange, phase, tube OD, etc.) for modular use. I know some modules
exist as modular recreations of guitar pedals. Metasonix seems to be
recreating most of their TM line as Euro modules. I also know that a
lot of basic modules cover and far outdo much of the pedal universe.
But I'm in love with fuzz pedals, and there's lots I'd like to see in a
module. I especially love starving a pedal. There's nothing like the
sound of some pedals running out of juice.

Anyway, the fuzzmodular & fuzzlab projects look interesting. But I'm
wondering if anything can be bought assembled or in kit form, or if
it's still a DIY thing?
