Yeah the cjod is a ts808 clone with a few changes. I built mine using a hoarde howler PCB from effectslayouts. Funny thing with that one, when I run it at 12 volts, it sounds fantastic! Less hiss, more headroom, etc etc

Thanks for the insights! It's an odd design considering how many electrolytics and tantalums are in the signal path. I thought that was avoided nowadays because they can introduce noise. I also used the tc1044spca charge pump. I thought I had read somewhere that it was an improvement over the...

Now that I have the wires corrected, I find I really like the 4558d as the clipping ic. I like LF353p for the other chip. It is a bit noisier than my cjod clone. I am wondering if it's due to the input circuit. The transistors with the bite control are sort of a pregain no? Darlington pair...

You spotted it! Thank you!

Nice overdrive! I may still experiment with different chips. Huge pop only when turning on. No pop when turning off. Any ideas? Thanks!

Churl is my favorite starting wordle word

I was wondering about swapping transistors since I can't find the b557b's at smallbear, stompboxparts.

Sorry for the late reply. I understand the logic of all top jacks. It just feels too symmetrical for me. Same with PCB layouts. I dislike whole lines of components. I love when there is a certain amount of symmetry. just not too much I guess. Human brains...:unsure:

I like side jacks personally.

Not trying to resurrect but BuddytheReow's suggestion helped me. I used a100k for Vol and b10k for Trim. The volume is still astoundingly loud and only useable the 1st quarter turn of the pot. It's less abrupt than with the b100k.

Kudos to you for not scrapping this!

Thanks Robert!

Hello! I built pedals for 15 years as a hobbyist and dipped my toe into semi professional. That scared me off and I took a 10 year break. A friend asked me to assemble some kits for him so here I am. I have an Ionosphere PCB062 Rev2. The parts values listed on the PCB do not coincide with the...
