I can verify that this works.

Is this a build for giants!?! I need to be at least two or three times bigger! /zoolander Awesome work!

Over in the builds section, it was mentioned we needed a thread for DeadEnd FX project build templates. So, who has some Tayda Drill Templates they are willing to share for their projects? I've got a few of the Last Gasp Arts Labs PCBs that I'll be building soon, so if anyone has some templates...

I managed to do top jacks on the 'zilla build but it was a tad rough. I'm definitely up for a DEFX Tayda Drill Template thread.

Nice job! This is on my stack to build. I just purchased all the LGL boards from DEFX and have been building them. I really liked the knuckle ball.. but I've got a soft spot for ring mod. The 'zilla was also extremely interesting for a fuzz.

That must be why it sounds darker than expected. 😄

I am among my people. Folks who remember Stongbad. As soon as my daughter said a dragon blowing large flames I knew the only answer was Trogdor. I imagine she's gonna steal the pedal from me cause she loved the look of Trogdor with his strong arms and consummate vs. Maybe I should make a...

I had some super low gain NPN MP38 Ge transistors and figured I'd throw them in the Cross Contaminator build. I was going to go with a Dia de Los Muertes theme initially to play into the EQD reissue but my daughter saw me looking for artwork and told me the pedal needed a dragon breathing...

Alejandro Jodorowsky approves. I approve. Awesome job on the pedal and great choice on the artwork.

I built this one using some GT310B transistors I had purchased while building @PedalBuilder's Polaris. Following the whole space theme, I named it Voskhod after the Russian spacecraft for orbital flight. This build went together really quickly and it's a nice Fuzz Face. I highly recommend...

Here's a short clip of an EL Chaos Bolt, an Eau Claire Thunder, and two other clones.

I just used some low gain mp38 (40ish) in a Cross Containinator. It was really nice, I was surprised how well it turned out. A much different sound than I was expecting.

Great work and I like the artwork but feel you missed a great tie in:

Like the art, is that an Alphonse Mucha piece?

In case someone needs an image of the modification:

I've only had one PCB guitar mania board that I couldn't get working: The Flaming Ring, which is a DBA Flaming Lips Space Ring. The quality of the boards are definitely suspect and a few just sound nothing like what they're supposed to be a clone of. The build docs are ok-ish but the PCB layout...

I still remember my first audio circuits class after spending the previous year having to do a ton of complicated math to have the professor literally just say "none of those resistors matter, so just drop them and then just simplify this complicated looking section to another resistor, now the...

You want to test voltage at the collectors and not the emitter. Here's an article on electrosmash discussing the fuzz face biasing: https://www.electrosmash.com/fuzz-face

I had some issues with this pedal myself. It helps to understand what the circuit is actually doing. There are four sections: boost, octave up, fuzz, and volume. The boost section (controlled by the sustain pot) will amplify your signal before sending it to an octave up (diodes + lm386) based...

Yeah, your report sounds like my experience, I thought I had the new revision given when I bought it. Just goes back to the old saying about assuming... I've still got a parentheses fuzz I need to box up so I can make a good comparison video. :)
