    Aion TS50b mods--making it clankier

    Im sorry you dont like your TS-50B circuit. limp and tepid ? not a lot of dirt ? Just in case, here is some sound sample from my build, so you can check if it sounds like yours.

    How to add some diode clipping option on Darkglass Alpha Omega circuit (Bass dual distortion) ?

    thanks for the suggestion, might be easier than desoldering the mod pot. I'll try that first and report.

    How to add some diode clipping option on Darkglass Alpha Omega circuit (Bass dual distortion) ?

    Oh ? so that's not the 1rst or 2nd distortion path ? IC3a and IC3b and their surrounding parts aren't gain stages ? I thought these were the 2 distortion's channels , and the mod control pans between both paths: Build docs mention "the signal is split into two paths". If i'm wrong can you...

    How to add some diode clipping option on Darkglass Alpha Omega circuit (Bass dual distortion) ?

    I was busy with harvesting grapes lately. I built the circuit just before leaving and i just got back (2025 is going to be a good year for french wine, at least in Anjou). So far i didn't try to add diodes in the circuit, yet. Both distortions sound great as it is, the mod control allows to...

    Help: Sunn Beta Preamp Mid-Freq Mod

    I think so. I play guitar and bass but i could probably be fine with only the bass version for both, i think. I often use the bass version with guitars, i like how it sounds, and i also use a GE-7 at the end of the signal chain, to shape the mids on guitars almost all the time. On the other...

    “How did they make that sound” thread

    I was listening to Master of Puppet album recently. Wondering what was used on the background guitar doing the main theme at 0:34 in Welcome Home (Sanatorium) track ? Sounds like chorus, reverb, but also some enveloppe filters and some tremolo ? It gives some sort of slow stromboscopic effect...

    How to add some diode clipping option on Darkglass Alpha Omega circuit (Bass dual distortion) ?

    I just finished building Aion's Empyrean deluxe project yesterday. https://aionfx.com/app/files/docs/empyrean_deluxe_documentation.pdf Surprised to see there aren't any diodes except a single 1n5817 for the power section. I really like both distortions, but i'd like to try to add some...

    Hi-gain modern fuzz that isn't muddy/has clear note definition?

    If we are really aiming for Aenima's guitar sound, i wonder how much the Marshall superbass amplifier is involved to get it ? And how much the guitar signal is modified by recording and post recording studio tools ? Even if the dual-rectifier head is plugged in the effect loop of the bass...

    Hi-gain modern fuzz that isn't muddy/has clear note definition?

    The Fuzz Factory allows to dial lots of different fuzz sounds, if we are prepared to spend time turning knobs, it's great to find interesting fuzz textures. On the other hand, a fuzz with "clear note definition" is kind of contradictory. I never heard a fuzz circuit that can handle full chords...

    Hi-gain modern fuzz that isn't muddy/has clear note definition?

    From what i could find online, Tool guitar player isn't a big stompbox user. When he does use effects they're from common brands like MXR or Boss. And according to forums, on Aenima it's not a fuzz, the whole album is made with a Superbass amp (Marshall i guess), and a dual rectifier head, from...

    Pitch Pirate-Witch w/ Green Jay

    This was the first modulation circuit i built, with a pcbguitarmania board. I still enjoy it, the only downside for me was the noisy PT2399 IC on longer delay. If only it was possible to have some clean repeats with long delay settings, it would be among my favorite circuits. Very warm and...

    Help: Sunn Beta Preamp Mid-Freq Mod

    i would if i wanted to be perfectly clear, but it's a bit too long. The Mid's pot's pot feels easier to use in a sentence. An alternative way to have some mid frequency options, easy to do and close to the original circuit design, would be a toggleswitch inspired by the changes for the...

    Lovetone flange clone DeadendFX

    In the build doc i see jumpers on the jacks pads. Did you notice ? At first i was surprised by the wiring differences between Aion and DEFX projects. There are jumpers on a few jacks in Aion's project. A closer look made me realize DEFX also use jumpers, but on the pcb soldering pads...

    Help: Sunn Beta Preamp Mid-Freq Mod

    I m not sure i understand. There is a Mid control already in this circuit. It's mentioned in the build doc ? You want a second Mid control ? Edit : ah nevermind... i think i got it. You want to control what mid frequencies are cut or boosted by the mid control. Good idea !

    “Up, Down, Daddy!” / Pearl OC-07

    if you don't really care about the octave up, PPCB Ocelot (boss OC-2) sounds very close. If you need the octave up, i only know this project. I'm sure it will get back in stock someday, you might need to wait a couple months. Did you try to send a message to Klaus at musikding, to ask when it...

    I will probably get some inspiration from your mods to try some things on my build someday. Thanks !

    DEMO punx (Pacifier / Punkifier)

    Very nice ! I built this circuit too and i like it very much. If i remember correctly, the distortion is close to the DOD 250, and the fuzz is a special design for this circuit. I wonder about all your mods, how are they affecting the circuit ?

    White Washer Distortion tone issue

    I wonder if this project name is designed to catch the attention of dedicated diy builders with good habits and special feelings regarding plastic washers ? Very attractive name. "very well suited for low tunings and heavy riffs." according to musikding. Aaargh... ! I think i've been hit...
