The LEDs even change color depending on which Colour sub module you have in any given slot. The faceplate and design of the entire unit are well thought out and very pleasing to the eye. The knobs are high quality and the feel of the pots is outstanding. The build quality of the Mkii units is excellent when completed and the individual components supplied by DIY Recording Equipment are of excellent quality. The Colour sub-modules are built on smaller boards and literally pop in to the main unit – you can change them out at will and very quickly. The main module has spaces for three Colours, each with it’s own potentiometer. There are two main components – the main module and the sub modules (the “Colours”). It has been done not by a large company, but by a small team of enthusiasts led by Peterson Goodwyn, making the outcome even more unbelievably amazing.Īny person who can (or wants to learn how to) solder can build one of these – they aren’t hard. The idea may be simple, but it has taken years to develop these modules. Colour takes these tone-shaping components and lets you access them on their own inside of a DIY 500-series module. The Colour modules can give you more (or less) of a single effect, whether that effect is the saturation of a transformer, the overdrive of a FET gain stage, the clipping of Germanium diodes, or the harmonic distortion created by overdriving a tube. The DIYRE Colour modules are conceptually simple units that isolate the building block components from classic gear.
