Missing Build Docs / Schematics

[cdwillis]

I was wondering if the "Actual Overdrive" schematic was ready to go into the build doc now? I know it's just a modded tube screamer, but thought it was would be a good pcb to mod for my own tweaked TS if I could see the schematic.

Got a schematic for the double pendulum? Boutta order the PCB. Got a mod in mind that will involve cutting a few traces and want to verify a few things I suspect I’ll have to do

@PedalPCB No rush but are the build docs or schematic for the Seashore OD coming soon?

EDIT: In truth, I have no idea, but these meme things are addictive.

Is it possible share parts list and drilling template of pro-10 dual overdrive please? I'd like to start ordering the parts and uv design.

 

[Robert]

I'll hopefully get all of these posted later this afternoon or tomorrow.

Could I have parts list/ build doc for the aloysius fuzz?

 

[Robert]

Pro-10 BOM and drill template, working on the full doc and the others today.

Raincheck on lunch then?

I built my seashore a few weeks ago using the pcb as my guide and I used polarized electrolytic caps throughout - do the non-polarized electrolytic caps change the resulting sound?

I was wondering that myself, although I did order some Nichicon Muse for the build. How does it sound?

You mean you used polarized caps only?

Fantastic low gain overdrive, but of a unique variety. A lot of the tones are similar to the chop shop but as you push the gain it goes into a sputtery overdrive/fuzz territory where the chop shop will saturate. A lot of interesting sounds in there. On mine, the germanium side of the clipping knob becomes apparent at around 3:00 and does the expected ge clipping thing when maxed out. I used a unizon 1n34a equivalent.

If it turns out the NP caps matter I'll have to do some desoldering but that sort of work comes w the hobby I suppose

Yessir.

 

[giovanni]

I see you mentioned above that non polarized caps matter - I was gonna say the same

Can we get anything for the Low Tide Mini? I know it's new but maybe just the BoM.

Thanks for the documents.
it would be very nice if you could share cap types cause the image doesn't show the value of the caps and I don't know which types they should be.

The (Rough) Capacitor Type Rule:
p = picofarads = ceramic disc/MLCC (<10000p)
n = nanofarads = film box (<1000n)
u = microfarads = electrolytic (>1u)

These are rough guidelines, not rules…kinda like the pirate code…

+1 Also, you can definitely tell which ones should be electrolytic because the silkscreen will have a circle and the leads close together. For ceramic vs film, just get ceramic if you can't find film (typically when the values are too low).
