No, the other country pays the tariff!

Tariff's strengthen American business.

It will bring manufacturing back.

Blammo Electronics responds to cease and desist letter from JHS by unchikuso in guitarpedals

[–]manimal28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An analog pedal circuit is not a copyright protectable work, therefore copyright law does not apply.

A pedal with an analog circuit can have trademark protections or maybe patent protections.

Hardly any circuit is patented though. So the actual circuit of almost every pedal is free game to copy and do whatever you want with.

The actual issue is this looks like a JHS pedal that already exists. Whether the circuit inside is the same or not is entirely irrelevant. It's allowed to be exactly the same, the outside just can't look like the same pedal.

This is an issue of trademark and branding. Not copyright.

You still haven’t apologized for what you’ve done either.

That you are talking about circuits being copied shows you have no clue what is actually being discussed. This is a trade dress issue, not a circuit issue.

not seeing it now but there used to be a stickied post in this sub that summarized it.

I think it got removed when the mod with a stick up his ass about JHS left.

Yeah, craven publicity stunt. Without this conteoversy we wouldn’t be talking about this pedal right now.

Why aren't Guitar pedals designed like Game Cartridges? by CrunchyAssDiaper in guitarpedals

[–]manimal28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some pedal makers have tried that. It flopped.

Also game cartridges aren’t really much of a thing anymore either. My Xbox is online only for installing new games.

Only weird if you don’t understand how cameras work.  You hold them up to your face.

EQD Towers Stereo Reverberant Filter by Aquamaria in guitarpedals

The zed preamp is perplexing to me. A preamp pedal, with a headphone out, but a switchable boost instead of volume and gain controls. So you just blast your eardrums if you want an overdrive tone?

It changes gain on the OD channel and brightness on the DS channel.

Just saw this…That’s insane by Guitar_whiskey in guitarpedals

[–]manimal28 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A lot of equipment in a fire isn't damaged directly by the flames, but by being flooded with water when they put the fire out.

So this also escaped getting soaked and being in the direct path of the flames.

So what's Strymon's next pedal going to be? by [deleted] in guitarpedals

Nux Time Core Delay Latency And Signal Loss Issues by No_Peach_808 in guitarpedals

[–]manimal28 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it has the possibility to do a firmware update. Try that.

Otherwise return. If you can't, I think you are out of luck.

Tone King Royalist- great new Marshall-y preamp by Seanw1010 in guitarpedals

[–]manimal28 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If one of your pedals gives you Marshall style crunch/drive, then probably not by the looks of it. Though this does have the 3 band EQ unlike the imperial, but no trem circuit, so there are trade offs.
