It is blue! So this is normal? I tried it first with an orange backlight in a dmg and it didn't have the polarization issue, but it wasn't half as bright or sharp as I expected it to be. Again, nothing like what I've seen from others.

So I put the orange into a pocket instead, and it looks better but not great. I took the blue out of the pocket and put it into the dmg.  The blue looked really good in the pocket, no polarization issue, but was giving me something like 25 minutes battery life.

So a blue backlight really should just have a sweet spot of contrast? And a strange polarity trick?

You guys are all awesome! Thanks a million for the varied feedback, it's all been really helpful and enlightening. I ended up preordering a 2.7 cart and putting the demo on a flash to get acclimated before it gets here. I guess I figure that even if I end up not liking it in the long term, the residual value seems to stay high on these things. I'm so used to lsdj at this point. I'm excited for something new, but fear the frustration of a learning curve. Though it's not like the music I'm currently making is particularly good anyhow.

Just ordered one with mGB. Hoping it will stop the backlight dimming that occurs on my pocket while using an ems64. By the by, anyone else get significant dimming while running an ems in a backlit pocket? I would think these little carts will draw less power than the ems. Fingers crossed, excited either way.

I adore my tc flashback. Really versatile, relatively affordable if you watch for the right deal, easy to dial in very useable settings. Mine is the plain old mid sized pedal, not the mini or the x4. Not analog, but sweet nonetheless.

Yep, I used the nanoloop diagram, but also referenced the one in the lsdj manual, around page 53? Or so. Nanoloop just has an extra wire connected for 'out'. Basically the lsdj diagram is exactly the same as nanoloop, only it doesn't show the bottom left gb pin as connected. The nanoloop wiring works fine for lsdj, and I figured I may as well add the extra connection for future flexibility.

I see. Basically I would never have figured that out myself, and am crossing my fingers that someone can tell me which resistor, and where to run the jumper. I can solder pretty well, but usually have no idea what I'm actually doing without pictures or specific directions. Inquiries about this mod seem to come up from time to time, a description here might but a useful for amateurs like myself. Initially I just tried soldering the two side pads from the pcb for the select button over to two posts on the shoulder button. Not working.
