Can I use a 20v 1n5817 instead of the 40v 1n5819 ?
There's no schematic yet for this one, but a little continuity check later I found that it's directly connected to the +9v pad so I am pretty sure it's a polarity protection diode.
Just wanted to make sure before finishing up this pedal ! Thanks !
I say secret just because they are not listed in the knob section :p at least on my end !

They look like great candidates for those 6 knobs 125b projects ^^
Thinking of making a couple of clones of the lastgasp transroom reverb and I need about 6 of them for a small oshpark run. I know that banzai has some for sell but they are pretty expensive :/. Maybe someone knows a ebayer or aliexpress store that sells genuine mn3011 ? My hopes for one is...
Hi everyone.
I just read a article on the magical mystery box over here: https://www.harmonycentral.com/expert-reviews/effects/castledine-electronics-magical-mystery-box-r314/
In it it says that the distortion is made by a pair of ac125 germanium transistor. I was just wondering which of q4-5-6...
I have seen a couple of post having issues with the circuit... Also found out on other forums how hard it is apparently go get this circuit to do it's thing :/ I tried a lot of diffrent jfets the 2sk30a I have range from Id 0.44ma VG .031v to .66ma and .43v.
Tried also 5457 and, tried 2n5952...
Here's another one I made a while back, the quarantine fuzz ! Such a nice PCB and big muff type fuzz. Looking at the raincoat schematic I only saw a 100nf to 10nf change, I should have socketed that cap just to see if it makes a big difference :p
Made those about a month or so ago, now I can post some pics :p. Both very nice octave fuzz pedals, but I really got a soft stop for the Propolis ^^, I think being a white stripes fanboy maybe is affecting my judgement :)
Added just a volume cut pot at the end of the propolis just to make it...
Finally got a photo compression app so I can post photos on the forum now xD.
Here's a build of the calamity fuzz, it's just awesome... If you haven't build it yet, order it now xD. I really love the calamity Jane graphics I did on this one :p
Just ordered some boards and now sourcing parts. Mouser is out of 42tm013 but they got some smaller 42tl013. My question is are they interchangeable in this circuit ? Thanks !
Hi y'all ! I am still waiting for my glory hole boards to arrive... Someone posted a trace of his original KOT gain mod which is basically changing r3 from the paragon boards from 1k to 100k.
This got me thinking ... Since the KOT and the morning glory are basically modified Bluesbreaker...
By any chance as anyone tried to buy some from this eBay store?

1$ a pop seems too good to be real :/
Hi y'all !! I got a pyrocumulus fuzz that ain't working :( I have checked the resistors and reflowed all the pads numerous times ! Gotta clean the back of the pcb real soon... When everything is turn to full I do hear a fuzz from far away but with no sustain. The bass and treble do change the...
I just finished building it and it sounds awesome! I don't have a high gain amp so I can't really test it as it is entendent to be used. When I turn the gain knob I barely get any range difference. It goes to no gain then at around 1/8 it goes to full on distortion at the 1/2 point it pretty...
I just ordered some glory hole pcbs and was wondering if it's at all possible to add the V4 gain switch as a mod ! Idunno how exactly the gain boost is triggered but if it's like a 1-2 resistors switch it should be easy ?
Thanks in advance if anyone is familiar with the circuit and can help me...
This might be a stupid question but here goes xD can you run a op amp big muff at 12-18V ?
Humm I tried to Google the answer for this but didn't really find anything on it a part that you shouldn't use a 18v power supply on the good old transistors version.
So I got a madbeans opamp big muff...
Just got done building this one and it's very cool :) I was just wondering.
Can I go 18v it if all my electro caps a rated 25v or above ? Will it explode and leave me with pedal enclosure shrapnel all over? And most importantly ... Will it be useful or worth it:p
Thanks !!
Hi y'all!!
I wanna build myself a new pedalpcb cart and it's kinda overwhelming the amount of circuits this site as produced this past year! (Wich is a good thing :D).
I am looking for recommendations from you guys, what are the builds that made you go WOW! And surpassed your expectations...
Hi guys ! I am making a shopping cart from tayda, and I got lots of boxed caps to refill. Eversince they have been selling WIMA caps I've been buying those, but to be honest I just never heard a difference between them and the old grey boxed one they still got of a 1/3 of the price.
I really am...
It's not much of a question but more a venting thread.
I first started to sell pedals on reverb 2 montsago and i got my first message telling me my pedal is malfunctioning T_T.
It's a friedman of deluxe clone and the channel switch when engaged flicker back and forth on the 2 channels. My...
I am using madbeans library at the moment and I gotta say , I love the big solder pad when I got to replace a component but I hate them when doing traces on eagle :/ anyone know where to get a library with small solder pad like pedalpcb pcbs? Really just need resistor s caps and diodes. I tried...
