Re: NPC: RC booster
Are you taking about the Xotic SL Drive? Mine has a ton of gain. (I’ve still got it, so it wasn’t me. I think you bought Blackouts from me)
I can see the RC Booster being nearly clean to the maxed out position.
Wow! Are we talking about the same pedal? With Tone and Drive dimed, mine remains clean. I wonder if it's because I keep the volume of the amp below "call-the-cops" level?
P.S. Are you the forum bro I bought this from? If so, it's definitely the same pedal.

For you old timers that grew up in the Chicago area, we had two auto parts stores. One was J. C. Whitney and the other was Warshawasky. My father had both catalogs and would check prices in both of them. And when we went down to pick up the items, he told me that we had to use the proper door door as the counter was split between the two catalogs......
From an old board,
I was a regular customer at BOTH shops in the 70's. Same building, single corner entrance, set at an angle. Sign above one door said Warshawsky, other door said J.C.Whitney. They both published a catalog, nearly identical, except for part number & prices. Some items were cheaper in one catalog, others cheaper in the other. I would spend several hours comparing prices & making a list with Catalog#, Part#, Item Name, & Cost. Then make my 70 mile drive into Chitown to make my buy... Loved It!

I used to pour over the JCWhitney catalog when I was a kid in the 1970s, planning all the cool accessories I would buy to make my imaginary car totally awesome once I was a grownup!

Well, it claims to be a MIAB, so if I were to venture a guess, my money would be on "Super Lead".
Re: NPC: RC booster
Oh well, that makes sense. I really like the Xotic line- a handful of the best sounds in an assortment of pedals.

Well, you know us guitarists - some prefer the C shape over the D [emoji16]

Re: NPC: RC booster
Yup. I just discovered that those switches bring this thing alive. But to be honest, there's nothing here to write home about. It's "ok", but nothing special. Then again, I haven't yet given it a fair chance. I'll play with it some more. On the good side, it's a killer clean boost when all the switches are off. Especially using the voltage doubler. I'll have to do a side-by-side comparison to my Duncan Booster, now that I have the Tri-Parallel mixer.
