OD is Glorious

Such a fun build. Thirteen resistors, eleven caps and one op amp. I enjoy the circuit and the ability to dial in the right tone. I have built one before and manipulated the pins on a mini toggle to add the symmetric/asymmetric switch to the outside of the pedal. This time I used a cute little sub-mini on/on and it worked perfectly and without manipulation. I changed the values of caps and it sounds glorious. I changed C1 and C3 from 39n to 47n and C4 and C6 were changed from 820n to 1u. Sounds glorious to my ears. The symmetry switch is subtle but the other one is a nitro switch.

I used another Love My Switches Breakout board and if you use one you have to flip flop the ground and switch out to make it work... I also shorted out the breakout board's led option with that short black wire. I used Lumberg jacks and Taiway switches. I included an image of the mini switch and the sub mini along with hole size for each. IMG_0064.jpeg IMG_0059.jpeg The decal is printed on my QL-1110NWB. The knobs are beautiful 15mm red anodized aluminum. I went with a blue powder coated Tayda enclosure and a blue 5mm diffused LED.

I put this together in a few hours and if you are considering making one - do it! I run an MXR Timmy on my own board and it is mostly always on.
