What uppppppp. Your favorite two dimensional being has arisen from the grave.

Where'd he go, you ask? He got married. He moved. He's trying for a stick baby with his stick wife. *Eyebrows* *eyebrows*.

In that spirit, I present you with a DEFX build: The Coupulator. This is based off the smallsound/big sound F*CK overdrive. Bugg's got a layout for this one called the Fornicus overdrive. That one fits in a 125b, so far more pedalboard friendly, though without the "Sag Depth" mod on R22.

Personally, though, I like a larger canvas so I can paint my pretty stick figures. And I also like playing off existing names with my designs. Therefore, I give you "Glory Hole".

Notes: jfet selection isn't necessarily critical, but Q6 has a significant impact on the performance of the Sag circuit.

I tried a few different types in this build for shits and giggles: 2N4861, PF5102, 2N5457. Overall, I liked the 2N5457 with an IDSS of 2.4ma the most in this position. Higher IDSS ranges seemed to make the "Sag" function more pronounced. Too pronounced, if you ask me. I want this thing to sound like its dying, not dead.

Granted, I'm not the sort who's gonna really sit down with the trimpot and listen for hours on end with little tweaks, cause trimpots make me anxious. I don't like setting these things by ear. Gimmie a measurement to shoot for, I CANT TAKE THE PRESSURE, MAN!!!!!

Anywho, do I need to clean my board a little better? Absolutely. Oh well.

Well fuck. Welcome back and with a vengeance. Now if Fig makes an appearance I’m going to need to either buy a lotto ticket, or build a bunker

And what a way to make a grande re-entrance — killer circuit with killer control-nomenclature AND managing to steal my idea I got a few days ago for naming a pedal... Definitely you came up with a better graphic concept, and knob-monickers...

Nonetheless, good to see you.


Congrats on making an honest Stickwoman out of the Mrs, Stickman393. Good luck with...

... all future... ah toothpick "endeavours".

Welcome back!! The artwork gives new meaning to "needle-d*ck". And excellent use of modular connectors!
 
Nice to see some familiar faces in here.

Whatuppppp!

There's plenty more where this one came from. Been banging my head against this new CNC machine. Using a combination of programs for both initial work locating and then height map compensation.

Though I just picked up a new little toy sitting right next to it. Should make for an easier time with powdercoated enclosures.
