    DEMO Sheepy love/GOTA SOD-1 (boss OD-1)

    Oh man this was an interesting side adventure, I’ll try and not write a novel about this but there was a lot that went on here, first I have to thank @Guardians of the analog for sending me this board and great job @szukalski. Soon as I was told the OD-1 was the father of the tube screamer I...

    Anyone ever clear coat polished aluminum?

    I have polished aluminum many times but never thought to try and put a clear coat on it, in this case it would be for adhesion protection of decals on polished aluminum, anyone ever do this? What was your experience, did it fish eye or even stick? Help a brother out and let me know.

    DEMO Demo for April :Autism Awareness/ Acceptance month

    It’s been a crazy time for me lately so trying to get this demo done for April :Autism Awareness/ Acceptance month has been a challenge, (better late than never I guess) As a father of a young child with autism I have spent a fair amount of time trying to understand the atypical development...

    BBE HF-2B hi-band flanger

    Clinton has been way too good to me once again , Hooked me up with his HF-2B board and the mn3204 and 3102 ICs. 🙏 you are the man! This is hands down my favorite flanger I have ever played. I’m not one for really extreme modulation or anything too wiggly so the smoothness of the Hi-Band is...

    Dwarven Hammer (hammered dwarf)

    Look at this fun little guy! Sure he may not be a happy drunk but man can he add some aggression to your tone. The Dwarven Hammer was one of the first few pedals I built. I have tried a few different tube screamer variants, but there was always something that ether didn’t work for me or I...

    C2C Nobelium (rack content)

    As usual I’m a little late to the party on this one. No real mods speak of except for putting it in a rack case with the optional input and balanced out strictly for cable management and flexibility, which definitely adds some cost but is working for me keeping things off the floor and desk...

    Basic relay DPDT(latching) led question

    @Robert the led comes on with pole (1) and not (3) correct? I wired this thing up halfway and my dumbass forgot to check. I’m using a transistor to “flip flop” LEDs but I’m in a situation I don’t want to put power to it yet. And I’m hoping to avoid rolling the dice. If you could help a brother...

    DEMO C2C SuperSonic WIP

    WIPs sometimes I feel lead to project purgatory and at the risk of cursing this one I’m doing it anyway… I was pretty excited that @vigilante398 did a full featured Uberschall project and jumped on buying the board as soon as I could, but the problems with me and pedals is they almost always...

    BBE Tough Nut Delay ( Ibanez AD9 )

    Ok last one probably for a while so let’s end on a high note. The BBE AD9! so as a play on the name and of course with a sci-fi twist what better set up do you need for an analog delay? I went with Anno Domini (9)4, “year of our lord” 6561 thats enough time for civilization to collapse and...

    VFE Klein Bottle

    Oh man where do I start… The Klein Bottle came with a lot of hype, and initially, I bought into it. While I can see some potential for its use in live settings, it falls short when recording. Frankly, there’s nothing it can do that can’t be accomplished in a DAW and with a much lower noise...

    BBE Phoenix Lights phaser

    When @blackhatboojum made his ph-1 variant and name it “The Phoenix Lights” I immediately wanted it, (👽’s and phasers? That’s for me!”) of course I had to put my own twist on it, but trying to stay true to to the Arizona roots of the project I went with the slightly more menacing fire in the...

    GOTA/Schu-tone Rajun Cajun Tr2

    Sometimes it takes me a while to find the time to finish a project, and this one started almost a year ago when @Guardians of the analog and @dan.schumaker made the TR-2 Rajun Cajun project, and I was graciously gifted the PCB and M5207L01. for me when I think of Trem the first thing that...

    BBE Good Enough flanger ( FL9. )

    Ever wake up in the middle of the night paralyzed then notice a weird looking Gary Coleman at the foot of your bed with a shop vac? Only to realize that’s not Gary Coleman and that’s not a shop vac as he whispers “ssshhh… just let it happen.” So you scream out “I BEEN HAD!” Right before you wake...

    Stewmac parts quality

    I’m working on an old mandolin (probably 1940s at the very newest from what I’m told). As this hold significant sentimental value for my wife I don’t want to use sub par components as the last repairs on this instrument didn’t seem to hold up, so my question to you who have done repairs of this...

    DEMO A demo for April Autism Awareness month

    I didn’t build anything specifically for Autism Awareness this year but instead made a signal chain using some recent builds: Shadow man ( @blackhatboojum) DM-3 Dizzy Elk fuzz (@peccary get rad) Paracitic terraformer (PPCB arachnid) Cerberus (PPCB muzzle) gate TARigrade (EL Neotoma) RAT In...

    Anyone built rack units?

    I have been mulling over the idea of building a rack with preamps instead of an amp build with a power section, I don’t really use a power amp much and could build one later if I decided I needed too and I like the idea of a modular system that can change with my needs. So of you that have some...

    GRP Dizzy Elk

    I’m not a fuzz guy… mostly because you really have to have a different mindset on how you play and I don’t live in that head space but I’m venturing out of my box and learning, this one is pretty fun to play and super easy build thanks to @peccary, he put a lot of work into this project for us...

    BBE Shadow Man DM-3 analog delay

    I’m not a delay purist by any means every circuit and chip set seems to offer something different, this one is no exception No gimmicks just clean clear and warm delay…. Super easy to dial in I was surprised by the low parts count even compared to pt2399 circuits The build docs are great and...

    PPCB Cetus preamp (victory kraken v1)

    Because I have been on a high gain kick again here is the Cetus, recently I have been looking for a different flavor of amp, and I was looking at the Kraken and super Kraken, and I like the demos I have watched so why not build the V1 to see if I would still’s be interested… The build itself...
