    DEMO Aleph Null 'Troglodyte' Self Oscillating Reverb

    🥵 that's a good point though. cos when playing normally, standing up, a bit further away from the amp, i can dial up the feedback a bit more. but while in the middle of doing a demo for this, it took a while for me to notice how much the feedback was ringing through and im like oh fuck no shit...

    i. Aleph Null Troglodyte Self Oscillating Reverb. - coolest belton / PT2399 reverb i’ve tried yet. - does it all. ii. EQD Tone Reaper / Scythe - haven’t built it yet, but my breadboard build blew my balls off in a magnificent way. - low parts count, only x1 NPN Ge required (leaky is best) -...

    Pyrocumulus / Big Muff cap question

    if you build this with 680pf caps, it's going to be darker. these small value caps (usually 470pf, sometimes 560pf) attenuate harsh high end frequencies. the larger the value, the more of the high end spectrum is going to be attenuated. e.g. a muff with 560pf caps is going to be darker than a...

    DEMO Aleph Null 'Troglodyte' Self Oscillating Reverb

    ay thanks for checking it out 🤙🏻 yeah it’s definitely worth buying a brick if you don’t find one. if i’m honest, i don’t actually follow NFL 😅, but i was given this hat a while ago and found it again the other day are there any other creatively described suggested settings we’re missing out...

    DEMO Aleph Null 'Troglodyte' Self Oscillating Reverb

    cheers 🤙🏻 yeah true there’s a lot going on with this thing. good fun. it’s just as well the momentary switch is there for ‘damp’ mode cos that feedback really wants to run away.

    DEMO Aleph Null 'Troglodyte' Self Oscillating Reverb

    as soon as i heard @Aleph Null ’s demo for this reverb circuit, i knew i had to build it. described as a "versatile reverb capable of everything from short, bright, roomy reverbs, to dark, cavernous, infinite sustain, to full-on self oscillation." - yep, can confirm. IMO this is the ultimate DIY...

    What are the most rugged 1/4" jacks people are using?

    same. FYI - i learned a few months ago that they're actually cheaper from mouser https://mou.sr/4p2AA3l

    1/4W Resistor in 1/8W size?

    yeah gotta check those datasheets. a while ago i ordered some 1W resistors for an amp build and they ended up being 1/4W size. wasn't stoked about it but eh, it happens.

    Awful Waffle 8V2 Zener 1/2W 9.1V substitute

    looks like the 8V2 specified diode is intended to clamp the supply voltage down to 8.2V i'm assuming a 9V1 (9.1v) won't really do anything except clamp it down to 9.1V (assuming the supply is even at or above 9.1v after passing the 220R current limiting resistor) this might make a difference to...

    DEMO AionFx Ember Distortion (Amptweaker Tight Metal)

    JC120 😳 damn that’s about as stiff and clean as it can get. must be doing alright if you can get a good high gain rhythm sound on that with this amptweaker thing.

    DEMO Breadboard builds [Tone Reaper //// Boss HM-2, MT-2 + mods /// JCM800 Pedal /// EAE Model feT]

    another one from the pedals patisserie 🥐 (yes i'm sure you're all sick of me, i am too...) after haphazardly dropping a War Scythe in the cart for the BF sale, i decided I should probably check out the Tone Reaper / Scythe Fuzz section as i had no idea what to expect (since nobody has been...

    DEMO Breadboard builds [Tone Reaper //// Boss HM-2, MT-2 + mods /// JCM800 Pedal /// EAE Model feT]

    always gotta try a boost yeah this was all @Blackboarcult 's idea i'm glad some others are enjoying it, cos it's not for me. i think i prefer the MT-2 EQ. there's something harsh in the HM-2 EQ (even with the HI control at noon, or just backed off a little, i can't dial it out), and then...

    DEMO Breadboard builds [Tone Reaper //// Boss HM-2, MT-2 + mods /// JCM800 Pedal /// EAE Model feT]

    yeah it's a bit nasty 🥵 oops and at least if you don't like the muff+HM-2 EQ combo, you could try a different distortion front end. maybe a RAT? could be sick. i'm thinking i might try something with a CD4049, maybe a red llama or chuck's CMOS muff tried an SD-1 boost for it, but it just got...

    DEMO Breadboard builds [Tone Reaper //// Boss HM-2, MT-2 + mods /// JCM800 Pedal /// EAE Model feT]

    here’s the russian muff w/ HM-2 EQ: (i maxed the EQ at the start of the demo like a dickhead and it sounds awful but i hope somebody somewhere deep down needed it to happen so i did, but then i dialled it down to sane EQ settings) i only realized upon revisiting this thread that i forgot to...

    Isosceles Boost - No worky

    wicked 🤙 a long long time ago, i had similar results on my isosceles build that worked fine, but i felt it was lacking (TC pre mode was fine, but the fortin 33/grind modes seemed a bit weak/quiet) so i changed R4 from 16K to ~20K. this seemed to improve the levels a bit (although this does...
