Big Muff
Here is another Big muff. I had these boards manufactured at PCBWay.com. The idea was to make a Big Muff PCB that could be used to easily build any version of the standard Big Muff. The board has an on board LED with all of the off board wiring along the bottom edge. This makes…

The worlds largest analog synth
Anyone who has watched my podcast knows I’m a big fan of bandcamp.com. Haven’t watched my podcast? Don’t worry it’s really only watched by a select few. Check out this link on Bandcamp: https://daily.bandcamp.com/features/robin-hatch-tonto-interview That said, I ran into this on the Bandcamp home page the other day. I’m a big fan of Tonto. These…

Yet another Big muff
Does the world need another? I wanted to do a Big Muff using those 9mm pots. These seem like they might be a good build option. I also wanted to setup this PCB to use the same part numbers that appear on all of the schematics not the Big Muff Page. This way it would…

22/7 PCB Order
I just got these PCBs in the mail from https://www.pcbway.comPCBWay.com. I’m impressed with the quality. This is an update of my my 22/7 PCB. I made a couple small improvements. The 22/7 is a CMOS based Big Muff. A very cool and innovative circuit by RunOffGroove.com. Did I mention they just turned 20 years! If…

Glitchstorm & Bytebeats
Glitchstorm is a Arduino powered byte beat generator. Arduino if you are not familiar is an open source hardware programming platform. Rather than surf the web and send email you can use Arduino to open your garage door and flash your favorite color of LEDs. Or, in the case of Glitchstorm output quasi musical audio.…

AionFX Qudratron a Lovetone Doppelgänger clone
Here’s another epic pedal build. The Lovetone Doppelgänger is a phase shifter with lots of extras. It has 4 phase shift stages and two LFOs and options for all of this. The Quadratron is not a direct clone of the Doppelgänger. It’s faithful to the original but makes a few changes. Both are four stage…

RunOffGroove.com turns 20 years
RunOffGroove.com is one of my favorite sites for original stomp box inspiration and innovation. I built my first projects using the schematics and layouts there. The ideas presented are innovative. I’m very impressed with the UBE Screamer and 22/7. You can find PCB projects for those here! The Ruby and other projects are DIY staples!

New Boards from PCBWay
Just got some new boards from PCBWay.com. These are RunOffGroove’s 22/7. This is a Big Muff built around MOSFet inverters in place of the Bipolar transistors used in the standard Big Muff. This is a great sounding Big Muff. If you’ve built Big Muffs in the past you should try this one. The tone control…

Rehousing the Boss DS-1
After my last couple projects rehousing new circuits in Boss enclosures I was left with several DS-1 PCBs. These were populated with some or all of the parts! I decided I couldn’t let these go to waste! If you’re interested to see what was rehoused in Boss enclosures check these out: 1981 DRV Burns Buzzaround…

Weston Audio AD110 progress
This is a 6 voice analog drum module based on the Boss/Roland DR110. I saw this thread over on Mod wiggler. It looked like a fun module that I could get some use out of. Weston Audio has a few interesting Eurorack modules. They offer the AD110 as a kit! The kit comes with three…
