Missing Build Docs / Schematics

Have parts been posted for that yet? (Pot and Kettle) I’m making an order list and would love to add these in.
 
I cannot argue. This one, however, must make up the entirety of that remaining 2% all by itself.

I think I was like 1/2 way through when I finally said f**k it and tossed it back in the box. One day I'll drag it back out, but not today.

What’s the circuit topology, at a high level?
 
It's hard to say since the schematic is still incomplete.

There are definitely 1176 elements in there, but I don't think it's a component for component clone by any means.

This really is one of those times where you'd have to really want to build this for the experience for it to make sense... If you just want the pedal you should probably just buy one. It's two stacked boards slam packed with SMD components on both sides.

At best, a through hole version would have to be much larger than the original pedal and there are a lot of components in there. I'm at 224 components with plenty more to go.

For me, this is definitely a case where it makes a lot more sense to buy one. I just got a Magma57 and it's flat out amazing. It made me drop all plans to design a vibrato pedal because I've got something better than I could make for $300.

If it were a rare, out of production pedal, that's kind of a different story.
 
I didn't start tracing the Cali76 with the intentions of cloning it, I had seen pictures and I knew what I was getting into.

What I wanted to see is how they adapted the circuit to work on 9V and what components they used... The answer I got was a lot more complicated than I had hoped, which is why it went back into the box for now. Realistically there are much better things to spend that time on right now.

I still want to do an 1176 style compressor (don't mention the Nyle, it is not), but a Cali clone isn't likely to happen any time soon.
