    Byzantium Flanger - How To Correctly Attach The Stomp Switch (A Build Guide Would Have Helped Immensely)

    so sorry to hear about the passing of your wife. i would absolutely love to help with this, and finish these off. but unfortunately i am too far away in madmaxland for this to be feasible 🫤 and then there's the risk of it going missing in the post

    Byzantium Flanger - How To Correctly Attach The Stomp Switch (A Build Guide Would Have Helped Immensely)

    the key to all of this is to DRY FIT everything (and i mean everything) to ensure fitments etc. before applying solder to anything. (here's a pic where i've checked the fitment of the two boards together with the header pins/sockets already mated together, which is how they should be when you...

    ay great work! 🤟 looks excellent. many thanks for taking one for the team and warning us about the jack fitment. (yet to build mine 😅)

    DEMO Breadboard builds [Boss MT-2 Metal Zone Bonanza + mods //// Eight Ball Overdrive (Marshall JCM800 Pedal) /// Mofeta (EAE Model feT)]

    despite claims that the amptweaker tight metal is meant to emulate a 5150, the aionfx version, "ember metal distortion', i built was quite a disappointment. there's definitely better distortions out there. e.g. the brown betty i built was way more fun. [although i reckon the 6 knob version...

    DEMO Breadboard builds [Boss MT-2 Metal Zone Bonanza + mods //// Eight Ball Overdrive (Marshall JCM800 Pedal) /// Mofeta (EAE Model feT)]

    cheers! none of this is really all that serious, (my preferred rig/method is a drive boosted high gain tube amp channel) it's all just a bit of fun and experimentation with the circuit that left a huge impression on me from my youth, by making otherwise awful cheap solid state amps fun and...

    DEMO Breadboard builds [Boss MT-2 Metal Zone Bonanza + mods //// Eight Ball Overdrive (Marshall JCM800 Pedal) /// Mofeta (EAE Model feT)]

    i was considering posting this in the modifications sub-section but im not sure that a couple cap changes is worth a post there. or anywhere really, but i guess this thread will do since the MT-2 is the largest circuit i’ve breadboarded so far. after fixing a few errors, the build sounded...

    DEMO Discrete Opamp SD-1 (Wilhelm Scream w/ mods)

    when i first discovered this board in the pedalpcb shop, it came to me at just the right time.. before i had even tried an ST-9 circuit (my favourite), at the time (‘22) i was all about the 808 circuit (OD808/TS808). I had this idea where I really wanted to do a discrete opamp version, and was...

    Emu Amp Sim - C101 - 220u - minimum voltage?

    in what way? does this cause noise or something? always wondered what the point of series resistors in power supply inputs were for. e.g. opamp muff:

    Third Man x JHS troika delay?

    already built one 3 years ago lol jk but yeah idk, a mic pre built into a delay? looks like another solution looking for a problem very few would have.

    TO-5 Sockets

    well @Feral Feline you are an odd fellow, but I must say, you steam a good ham

    Old SE-05 diodes?

    got one of these? if yes, assemble this, and drop your lil guys into D1 & D2. \

    Byzantium Flanger Transistors

    it doesn't matter. parts list doesn't specify for either B or C. BC560 is PNP. if you want to sub it, it needs to be PNP. i used a BC557 in my build. no issues.

    Electrovibe Mini 1uf caps

    i'd say these will work fine. FYI - your attachments are hidden/private.

    TO-5 Sockets

    or, breadboard the circuit first, pick your favourites, THEN solder it to a board. sockets are hideous.

    Biggus Rubbermaid (MattG Way Huge Saucy PCB)

    well, look at the legs. gotta be careful when bending, cos all of the force that gets put on those legs goes into that piece of brown phenolic plastic, so it is subject to quite a bit of stress. learned the hard way one day when i was trying to bend all 3 at once by prying against the bench...

    Real Spring Fet Reverb (Surfybear)

    https://www.deadendfx.com/product/hooke this one uses a TDA7052B to drive a mini accutronics tank. there's a veroboard layout available for the above project (spaceman orion/hooke). fits in a 1590J. i reckon it sounds pretty good. (build thread w/ demos)

    Fuzz War V1 Question (Transister-related)…

    i ended up going with values from the fuzzdog 'stable version' schematic. (those x2 100n caps will be replaced with some slim 220nf i got from mouser recently) started a board, got distracted, and haven't finished it yet. (maybe that was intentional, cos the tone cap position is still vacant...)
