Yes I’m realising that now. I didn’t realise the Timmy was low gain. I tried to do some calculations but I was obviously off. Do you mean I should increase the amount of boost in the first stage or f the Timmy? I’m not sure how boosting the second would affect the wave folder? Sorry if a silly...

Hello everyone. Some mixed success on this project. I put it together on the weekend and the Timmy section works. However the wave folder only works if I I have large amounts of signal going into it. I have placed a Mutron 3 in front of my prunes and Timmy and this activates the wave folder...

Typo sorry. Fixed it

The three things you have highlighted are all the same op amp. The + and - represent pins (Edit 8 and 4). Not sure about Kikad but in easy eda I select a footprint that has these three parts under the same heading. To make just one footprints out of 3 parts they must be named the same thing...

Thanks that looks good. I’ll save that.

More often than not the solution is checking you have used all the right parts. I use this link a lot https://www.digikey.com.au/en/resources/conversion-calculators/conversion-calculator-resistor-color-code

Hey. Your voltages look off, especially the 4558. Check your resistors around here especially r10 and r11. In fact it looks like you have a 100k resistor in r11 (brown, black, black, ORANGE, brown) instead of a 10k (brown, black, black, RED, brown). You should be getting 4.5v on pins 3 and 6.

This is amazing. I love the look so much and the internal dip switches. What does the modes switch do? You said it adds more gain? How is that?

I love the fuzz/op amp big muff idea! I think I will stop tinkering with the idea and just bite the bullet. As long as it works I will be happy even if the Timmy isn’t interesting. If successful I might look into a more appropriate overdrive or a fuzz like you suggested. Probably the fuzz!

Thanks. Do you have an example of the Salem key in action? Or know how i might implement it here? I’m a bit of an amateur with theory. Open to other overdrive ideas if you have any? Timmy was chosen mostly because it’s simple.

Actually looks like quite a few successful builds I the group

Looks like at least one person on the facebook group got it going. No mention of issues https://www.facebook.com/groups/1066092703545364/permalink/1225477497606883/?mibextid=W9rl1R

Would that look like this? From a different circuit but I think this is what you mean

Thanks. I'll do this. Why is this good practice? Not being rude, I just have no idea.

Here is where I am at so far, I have fixed up things that seem to be issues. I will read through those wavefolder documents, I am very interested in the shape poteniometer, hopefully I can include one. I'm glad there is enthusiasm for this and it's not just me. Since I suck at breadboarding...

Thanks @finebyfine. I was wondering what it was based on. I’ll do some research into that.

Thanks. I’m glad you think it’s a good idea. I will make this at some point and will let you know if it’s successful!

Someone on a Facebook forum suggested instead of the mix pot i use an op amp mixer such as that used in the boss ce2 and walrus Julia. This seems like a good idea to me

Thanks! It sounds like a good idea in my head. I'm not sure I have the chops to make it reality though so I'm opening it to the experts here.

The idea is that I really like the intermodulator sound from the Crowther Prunes and Custard but the overdrive sound is a bit meh. I wanted a decent overdrive with the ability to incorproate the cool prunes and custard sounds. I have the following questions. 1 - Will this work 2 - Any glaring...
