Nice, clean build! Can you compare this to a Mercurial Boost? Better? Worse? Same?

Get a good amp that has the dirt characteristic you like. You won't need 90%+ of the pedals you make.

Im assuming that GPCB Roto-Tone board is a mod board. I have one of those and they definitely come in handy even while using a breadboard. I can keep playing and turn the rotary switch to instantly hear the different in components.

Stickman and I are cooking something up for you folks. Stay tuned....

I have not. Got a schematic? A Muff is a Muff, IMO, regardless of the component values chosen. Or I just don't know how to use it other than a maxxed out sustain knob.

I've got a lot of BMP in my collection. And I don't really like any of them.

I found this pretty helpful for the fuzz side of things. To my knowledge there really isn't a comprehensive "Family Tree" out there. https://sites.google.com/site/davidmorrinoldsite/home/trouble/troubleeffects/fuzz?authuser=0

Your best bet is to research the "classics" under the hood and be able to discern the different topologies. A muff looks VERY different than a rat or tubescreamer on a schematic. Then start branching out from there. You biggest hurdle, IMO, will be fuzz territory unless you do your homework on...

Ok. So, I think I’ve got a pretty good idea what the next contest based on the responses here. I will need someone to help judge. There might be some hating involved… DM me or respond here if interested here. First legit response gets the job

Don’t feel bad Chuck. It’s been a weird week here…

Sifting through this thread, we have about 5 of you with general interest in some sort of non-hating contest. Anybody else interested in hosting or participating in a contest?

^Looks to me like you don’t want to participate

Anybody willing to host or be a co-judge? Timing is a bit of an issue for me, but I can help kick something off and help judge. @Cybercow has offered up some pedal goodies as a prize.

Different thread, but yes

Hmm. Perhaps a stripboard build contest including enclosure design?

Call me BJT biased (pun intended), but I am a fan of the circuit design contests. It's a pretty cool way to see what people come up with and you might learn something too along the way (gasp). Raffles, giveaways, and "Guess the Number" aren't really contests IMO, but rather a fun way to engage...

It’s been a while since there’s been a circuit design or ANY contest for that matter (I miss Fig’s “Guess the Number” contest). Anybody here interested in hosting or participating in one? Just trying to gauge general interest. This thread could also be used any future contest ideas. Or is...

Sound like a bad pot if you ask me. Or it could be a cold solder joint.

I think the "pop" is the powering on of the circuit? Pedals are normally "always on" when DC is plugged in
