Here’s a PCB ready for boxing. This is basically a well tuned Ross clone. The original was made by Way Huge. This, Saffross, is clone made from a layout by MarkM over at DIYStompboxes.
I had wanted build a compressor for a while now. But had never actually gotten around to actually making one. A few months ago I etched and soldered a a Saffron Squeeze, which is a Ross clone. Somehow I had not actually finished this before I found stripboard layout for John Hollis’ Flatline, which jumped…
Here’s interesting phaseshifter idea I found over at Circuit Workshop. The Casualty 4 is an OTA based phase shifter with two modulated stages and two fixed phase shift stages. This looks like a pretty interesting project. Looks like you can fit this in a B sized box but there doesn’t seem to be enough room…
Here’s a Wah probe work alike. Thought this would be a fun build. Someone gave it a good review over at DIYStompboxes so I etched up two boards. just got the parts in the mail and soldered the last parts into the board last night. Here’s a picture of the populated board. This still needs…
I found some good information on trimming the N570 to help remove unwanted distortion. The chip contains to two identical sections which are mirrored on either side. Pin 3 and 14 provide an input for a control voltage for the gain cells. Pin 8 and 9 provide a distortion trim fro the gain cells. Not…
This is the Tremolo-Matic X from Stompboxology. I’m in the process of building this for “Jonny” who I met at the last DIY Swap meet. He gave me this box to put it in.This project is coming together nicely.
Here’s an Ugly Face I built. I used PnP for the design on top. The transfer was a imperfect. But mostly worked. I’d really like to find a reliable toner transfer that works on these metal boxes.
Here’s the current projects. Two Echo Base and two Casualty 4 Phaser shifters.
I found these old school layouts by Andy. These look like fun to build the layouts just scream mojo. I think I will have to etch a few of these up and build them with carbon comp resistors and ceramic caps! Andy aka “Dragonfly” posted like mad on the DIYStompbox forum for several years and…
Looks like one of my Ugly Face’s made it into the “Art of the Stompbox” exhibit at the Museum of Making Music in San Diego. http://www.flickr.com/photos/museumofmakingmusic/page3/ http://www.museumofmakingmusic.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=282&Itemid=41
Wow, you must take a look at this site. These are the most amazing applets. http://www.falstad.com/circuit/e-index.html
Here’s my take on the SHO. With crackle free knob. Adjust the value of C3 to create a range boost.
