Nice build as always. I tried to like this quite a few times, and I could never make it sound good. Which I found surprising, because I like both the Rat and the DS-1 with diode-less opamp clipping. I’ll try it again though, I’ve been surprised before with how many tries it takes before I like a...

Hey, I think I saw this on HN! Nice work, I tried it out on a few simple circuits, but haven't verified them yet.

Woah. That is gnarly.

Figured it out

Curious if anyone’s tried making a whammy-like enclosure, with a treadle and room on the side for foot switches and other controls. This is in pursuit of the coveted all DIY pedalboard, for better or worse. Now that I’ve picked the low hanging fruit, and some higher hanging fruit, I’m looking...

Nice- I have a stash of these left over from building dylan159’s TL431 Precision Fuzz.

And it shall be glorious. 🥁 The green-on-green looks great.

At the time I built it, I wasn’t aware that this was something to consider. I must have gotten lucky, it sounded the way I expected with the first ones I grabbed and put in there.

The C2CE Particle Accelerator has quite a bit of clean headroom. From the docs: https://c2celectronics.com/product/particle-accelerator-pcb-set/

There’s definitely some subjectivity here. The way I see it is, not necessarily high gain, but more-so the effect is producing enough upper harmonics in a way that they are creating an audible dissonance.

If you’re wanting to get into that territory, a wave folder is another to consider. There’s usually a sweet spot in-between “normal” sounding and white noise. The Prunes and Custard is kind of a tame version of, but cool in its own way. The Unpleasant Surprise also dips into this territory...

The illustration in the build docs could certainly be better, I think it looks confusing for the folks who need it. So I’m going to layer another crappy drawing on top. Basically, the positive from the jack goes to the 9v pad and the current limiting resistor.

Welcome. This thread is like the Trenton toll bridge coming from Philly. It’s a trap. *The* workbench is the pedalpcb workbench (there is another thread called *your* workbench)

You can buy individual Rocket Sockets at LMS.

But sometimes they are ok with it: http://kornshell.com/fun/
