Tools, Tones and Toys for Guitarists
Request. To save space I did this using a 3 position on/off/on toggle instead of the rotary switch. You will get the same selections, 10n, 22n and 33n. Well you’ll actually get 32n with my toggle but it’s close enough, although if you do want it with exactly the same values you could always hand … Read more
This was my take on the DBA Robot but with individual switching for the IC internal functions (Vibrato, Robot and any of the octave options on the fly) rather than the rotary switch used in the original. I thought it would be more versatile to be able to control them all individually rather than be … Read more
Something weird to do with your extra PT2399s. From Casper Electronics : The Echo Bender is a mix of multi FX pedal and noise maker. It can process external signals like guitars, keyboards, mics and drum machines or it can create complex sounds on its own. It can function in several different stand alone modes: -Warm … Read more
Yay February. Just 111 to beat this month Miro :o) I think I’m going to get a few questions about this one, although a look at the front of the Deluxe at the graphical links between switches and pots will probably give a good clue how this one works if you aren’t already familiar. A … Read more
We had some deficit on basic Devi circuits. I’m fully aware that these circuits are not for everyone, but i personally enjoy Devi’s amazing work a lot. To support her, you should most definitely think about getting kits (and why not production pedals) from her Etsy page. Her pricing is very appealing too…
I’ve always wanted to get more layouts with 7 rows of height 🙂
Newer, much much more complicated circuit has been around for years, but i thought i’d swoop up a layout for the simpler, older V1 version of the Experimentalists Anonymous Parallel Universe self-oscillating fuzz. So, noise freaks, here you go:
This one is definitely verified, but: The LFO section is *very* sensitive to both voltage and current, so if your board doesn’t fire up right away (which happened with my second build too), you should consider doing a little daughterboard with 9V regulator, 8V2 zener and a 10-50 trimmer to get the LFO going. That … Read more
When i started to draw layouts, i did draw something like 10 of vintage fuzzes that weren’t published on this blog earlier. I build most of them and that’s when i realized why they weren’t posted. Most of them are pure crap. For those who are after “that 60’s sound” – the ear piercing super … Read more
