Aion Electronics Aurora Pedal

I’m stoked to find this thread here! I’m considering a compressor for my first build and would love a 3-4 knob Ross-based comp. I had a Keeley 4c before I sold my guitars and really liked it.

Does anyone know much about the Aurora mods people talk about? I don’t see that in the documentation (maybe pots vs switches, or added features?)

I’ll have to read through this thread but I’m curious what people are doing for the chip? Small Bear’s site says they’re in-stock but there’s no button to ‘add to cart’.

Edit: I’m confused by the 2 versions: the old version (still available) uses the CA3080, and it sounds like it has the Attack knob? And the new version uses LM13700 but they don’t mention more than 2 knobs. Which is being built here?

Pedal Parts Australia sells CA3080 chips, but they are expensive (but at 10AUD, the exchange rate will work in your favor). They also sell Ross compressor kits, but they are 2 knob versions.

There are also ways to use the cheaper LM13700 with PCB designed for the CA3080.
