Beautiful job, as always! Compared to other distortions/drives, how much gain would you say this one has? The 3 mu-amps have me a bit scared

About the fet, I think you can replace the j201 with a J113, since it's acting as a source follower Your math is correct, but not entirely: the cutoff frequency of a 1k-6n8 lpf is indeed ~23khz. However, a 1st order lpf begins attenuating before said frequency. If I'm not mistaken, the cutoff...

You're right, pinout is the same, but I think they have a different footprint, like those two: The sk118 looks like the one on the right, and I think (never had one in my hands, though) that the sk30 looks like the one on the left

That's true! I had forgotten about the 2sk30! It's just a different package, if I'm not mistaken

The 2sk208 is the smd equivalent of the 2sk118 and it's still in production. Both mouser and digikey carry the 2sk208-Y (as does aliexpress, not sure if it's worth it, though). You could buy it and use an adapter board

I've been there, I know your pain

Nice job! Clean as always! Have you had to twist the knobs on the transistors? I thought the pinout on the J113s was differente from the pinout on the 2sk170s, but it doesn't look like you did

In terms of Vgs(off) the 2sk209 (available in smd still in production) is an exact match to the 2sk170 (they both range from -0.2 to -1.5). It would be important to know the suffix on the 2sk170 in order to get a similar Idss. The pf5102 might not be a bad match either (but the pinout is...

I think so, as long as phase inversion (or lack thereof) is not a problem

I recall a discussion a while back in which it was concluded that the CD4050 won't work as an audio amplifier Edit: found it https://forum.pedalpcb.com/threads/expectation-high-low%E2%80%A6.8302/post-75088

Beautiful work! That box is amazing!! Is it 125B sized?

I'll try to record some today at band practice

Great job, Guilherme! Looks amazing!

I'm more interested in the envelope detector part of the circuit, actually. I'm trying a discrete jfet approach for the gain stage. Let's see how it works out

Just did what you said and it passes the test, thanks a lot!! I'll finish laying it on the breadboard and listen to how it sounds
