Death by Audio Octave Clang
There was already a layout in the forum section but not on the main page. This version should easily fit in a 1590B box. Original FSB thread and schematic available here.

DBA Octave Clang
For Fuzz Friday here’s the Octave Clang from Death By Audio. It’s a transformer based octave fuzz utilizing a 741 opamp. Fairly low parts count and should fit in a 1590B.
Way Huge Purple Platypus
Here’s a bit of a rarer old school Way Huge circuit from the 90s. It’s essentially what would happen if a Red Llama and a Foxx Tone Machine had a baby. Original thread on FSB here with schematic.
Parasit Studios Eagle Claw
Fuzz Friday! Freppo over at Parasit Studios makes some insanely cool stuff. Here’s his Eagle Claw octave fuzz. You can probably squeeze it into a 1590a if you’re feeling adventurous. In his own words: The Eagle Claw is simple yet brutal, noisy and glitchy sounding CMOS-based fuzz with a full wave rectifier to produce a … Read more
Way Huge Purple Platypus
Not a lot of info on this one, so here is what I found out about it: Uber Rare Way Huge Purple Platypus Octidrive only about 120 or so made. Essentially, this is a Red Llama Overdrive and an octave effect similar to the Green Ringer. A very specialized pedal, its best use is to … Read more
Earthquaker Devices Hoof Reaper
It’s the last Fuzz Friday before Christmas, and as a present to you here’s 3 effects in one–the Earthquaker Hoof Reaper.

For the germanium transistors, originals use an AC176 in the Reaper side and 1N1308s in the Hoof, … Read more
Earthquaker Devices Tentacle
Basically the Tentacle is Dan Armstrong Green Ringer with a few value changes. Now for those of you that liked the idea of building a Hoof Reaper, which I mentioned when I posted the layout for the Tone Reaper, the Tentacle should go in between the Hoof and Tone Reaper for the Octave effect. So … Read more
Death by Audio Robot
For Fuzz Friday, here’s another wild and wacky one from DBA: The Robot is a low fidelity 8 bit pitch transposer with absolutely no feelings what-so-ever. It is completely synthetic and transforms any input into a spuree of resynthesized robot jargon. Originals need a dedicated power supply as the HT8950 chip runs off 2.4-4 volts … Read more
Electro Harmonix Octave Multiplexer
Here is a layout for a classic pedal. I’ve drawn 2 versions: Vintage and Modern. There are 2 layouts for the Vintage: with and without output boost. I’ve added a boost to the Modern layout to avoid volume loss. You can find the original FSB thread here. 16/01/2017 Layout updated! I’ve changed the vintage layouts … Read more
