    Muffin Factory Settings Reference Chart

    Interesting thread - thanks for the mention @darwin999. I hadn't seen any other component tables before, which is why I put mine together (based on the awesome work of Kit Rae, the world foremost Big Muff aficionado). I stuck to EHX for my chart, I may expand it with a few more options at...

    Trying to figure out input impedance, and how it affects coupling cap value choice

    Hey there. I'm also lazy and use LTspice to check impedance. In pretty much every case that I can remember, adding a pulldown resistor to a circuit that doesn't have one reduces the input impedance. It's adding parallel resistance, so it has to come down. The question is, does it actually...

    Tonebender Mk1 Transistor sets at now at SmallBear

    It was obtained by a lot of digging around of old posts and looking at photos. Glad you like it - the blog started as a reference for me (and still is), I perhaps got a little carried away with the scale of it. 😁 I happen to have a couple of MKIs on the bench at the moment myself. Always...

    How to make Vero boards

    This method avoids having to reverse layouts to place cuts. Mark from the top with a felt tip pen - the ink absorbs into the board, and you can see it from the other side. Simple... it also provides a good reference for component placement, once you start populating the board. I make a...

    Discrete Opamps from Orange

    Maybe try it and see what you think. I just did some as an experiment, and it does sound different (I'm the guy from vero-p2p). In some cases smoother, with less harsh clipping. For the record, I'm not one of those people who thinks discrete is best. I'll quite happily use ICs cause...

    Nugget fuzz issues

    I just saw this thread - yes that would be me. It does work pretty well, and I used a 4.7k as that was at the end of the range where the transistor started to cut out and not work. I've also used a 25k pot instead of a 50k for a more useful range (to my taste anyway). I'm looking forward to...

    PedalPCB Gnat mod - "The Dizzy Elk"

    It keeps me amused, and always happy to share.

    PedalPCB Gnat mod - "The Dizzy Elk"

    Thanks MDC - I'm sure I've probably missed a few, feel free to let me know if something is missing.

    Cornish P-2 Fuzz/Distortion

    The P-2 is the same footprint as the G-2. It's the values that are unknown. A G-2 was de-gooped a while back, and the board is marked as P-2 / G-2 tm Pete Cornish 2005. It's probably extremely similar, just with silicon diodes instead of germanium and most likely values somewhere around an...
