I think so- that’s the name Chuck mentions in his thread.

This is a really interesting approach I never would have considered.

Yeah, there’s definitely a difference. When I set the LEVEL to to noon, and the GAIN and DRIVE fully ccw, it’s pretty much clean and at unity. The GAIN by itself gets thick and fuzzy. The DRIVE by itself adds more of an upper mid bite. Both together give you more compression and saturation, lots...

Seems doable. How? Not sure yet. The following is pure speculation. It would take me some iteration to try and find something that imitates it well. Also, I only watched a 1 minute video of this pedal. We have an onset, I assume it’s controlling the attack on an amplitude envelope, or doing a...

Some possible 14-pin ICs from the CD series CD4069UBE CD40106BE Honorable mentions, but 🤷‍♂️ CD4047BE CD4007CN CD4013BE

Here’s chuck’s thread about this circuit: https://forum.pedalpcb.com/threads/this-week-on-the-breadboard-the-quicklime-girl.28098/post-364039 I like it- I can get that blown-out sound, and the gain stages provide a variety of tones. It was fun with a tele. Thanks @MichaelW for the board!

That’s really cool. Do you dig the sound? Lots of trimmers! Do you know what you have the bands tuned to, or is it just whatever sounded good?

It doesn’t, unless I’m just special. I hit order on my cart to double check.

We don’t have to pretend I wasn’t a bit snarky- I was triggered.😅 Y’all don’t need the side effects of my burnout spilling into here. Other software developers can probably relate. Off-topic, apologies. Let me try to get us back on-topic- Being able to save multiple carts would be really...

Yeah, Digikey does have that. But they also have more than one employee, which PPCB does not. Also sure you’re not a product owner or stakeholder? Those are the people that assume something is simple to do without knowing how the current codebase is implemented.😉 I’m being facetious here, but...

First thing that comes to mind is ducking. Personally, I sometimes use side-chaining on the bass guitar, triggered by the kick drum, so that the kick is more defined and prominent in the mix. It can be cool on guitar solos with lots of delay, where you apply the compressor to the wet delay...

Thanks!

What do you like to use for R1 and R4? I have a Backbone PCB.

Yep- probably not the right thread for this- I’ll just go into the troubleshooting subforum the next time it happens.

Ok, here’s one I’ve been kind of afraid to ask… When I’m breadboarding, and I try to make a transistor-based circuit, it fails just about every time. By that I mean the audio signal passes through with little change, or it sounds weak. I do your typical troubleshooting, like check the pinouts...
