    Dream Fuzz - more gain?

    Is there a simple way to squeeze more gain out of this thing? https://www.pedalpcb.com/product/dreamfuzz/

    Dynamic jfet overdrive

    Here is a bastardized version of a smallsound bigsound F*** overdrive. I stole most of this from @marksescon (thank you) https://www.marksescon.com/blog/2023/7/20/kintsugi It's working quite well. I'm not sure it's 100% matching the original (the fornicus project has an additional jfet on the...

    Is there such a thing as a DPDT dip switch?

    For reasons I won't go in to, I'm wondering if this part exists? I have a footprint for a DPDT switch but I'd like it to be internal, is there an easy way to achieve this? Thanks

    MOSFET Pie

    Modified from the available MOSFET Pie 2 schematic and modified for BS250s because someone on the internet said they were quieter than BS170 and everything on the internet is true so I had to try it. This one is cool, it doesn't have the woofiness of a regular big muff. Nice on bass it would...

    Fuzzduster (JFET Big Muff content)

    I stumbled upon @jubal81 's Fuzzduster and knew I had to build it. Then I decided I wanted a big box for it and and then I decided to use 24mm pots. Execution could have been better bit hey. Ended up with 2n5457 in Q1 and Q4 and j201 in Q2 and Q3. I subbed the diodes for LEDs. Only played it a...

    MOSFETs, N to P channel

    Hi all, I'm trying to replace some N-channel BS170 MOSFETs for P-channel BS250s and something's not going right. I'm wondering if this zener could be my issue, does it need to reverse directions? I've read that it's static protection. I'm trying to build this circuit...

    Hissing noise goes away when pad is touched

    I built a circuit which works, but has a pretty large amount of white noise in the background. I've found that touching the circled pad with anything makes it go away. What could this be a symptom of, or what could be a remedy? I don't really understand how me holding a resistor with tweezers...

    Tape saturator diode compressor

    Adapted from DIYRE's color module and this site: Link I need to do some recording or reamping to get a full sense of this thing but at first glance I like it. I might just use it on everything, it seems pretty clean when set low on the soft setting.

    The Creamery Compressor & noise

    I love this compressor. It feels the best to play for what I do. The only issue I have with it is that it's a little bit noisy (at least my build is). Noisy as in a faint white noise type of sound, regardless of the guitar signal. Is there anything we can do to attempt to mitigate this...

    Crap-fi Delay

    Wow this thing is noisy. At first it sounded like something was broken until I realized the repeats knob is backwards. I think this will be nice in my vocal chain Gerbers available if anyone needs boards. I don't remember who I got this schematic from but thank you

    Mic pre FX loop

    Here is Rev 2 of my looper box. This includes a THAT mic pre in front. Upon first firing this didn't work but after digging more on the diyaudio forum I found someone doing the same project as this one, and doing it in an easier way so I may make my way to a rev 3 with more features

    regarding powering multiple parts of a circuit

    As an ongoing work on my XLR looper, I'd like to include a preamp inside which requires +48V power. Let's say the rest of the circuit requires +/- 12V, and I'd also like to include a pedal effect which would take +12V. Is the diagram I've drawn below feasible? Is 48 to 12 V too much of a...

    XLR looper box

    This is a box that takes a balanced line level input from my preamp and let's me send it to pedals and back to the computer I have some more ideas for a future iteration such as including a preamp inside and others

    Antithesis Fuzz homebrew

    I've never played a harmonic percolator before. This thing rips. I made the silicon version with LED clippers and just basic 3904 and 3906 transistors. Gonna work on a faceplate here soon

    DC jack help

    I've invested in a project that called for this DC jack which is now discontinued: Jack 1 I've researched replacements and it appears this one has the same dimensions and layout: Jack 2 My question is, the schematics are showing a slightly different pin numbering and I can't figure out if...

    DEMO Flammenwerfer (big muff content)

    Here's my BM that I designed the board for. It's got a few tricks. Demo below.

    Kewpie and Fornicus

    Last ones for me for a long time as I'm moving. Somewhat difficult build as far as standard PPCB goes but no issues. Need a bit more time to process the Kewpie. Fornicus is awesome as the original I had more than a decade ago (god I'm old)

    cutting bass from Buzz Tone

    Is it possible to add a bass control to the Selmer Buzz Tone? Like would reducing the value of the first and/or cap do the job?

    EQD White Light

    Made my own board for this with a trimmer for R7 to adjust the presence. I think this might even be a useful external knob. I still think this is an underrated dirtbox. It can do everything

    schematic reading help

    Can someone tell me what the circled numbers are? Are they just intending those junctions to meet and couldn't physically draw them together?
