@Feral Feline I looked into the Codtone PNP-flip, but all I could find was his Codpiece pedal which incorporated that - no real info on how it's achieved. Any links would be excellent, I'd love to try this sometime. Curious what it does to up the insanity!
Ditto for turning a PPCB board into a Baron Samedi. I wasn't aware of the little Muffin Crumb add-ons before, they seem very useful. If you have a sec, please help me understand why an Executive, Teddy Rupture, etc would need an add-on amplifier stage to get there.
Damn it! The Codtone website is no more. The info from it that I saved is on an old computer...
At least the boobtoob channel is still going...
All you need for "peyote" mode, IIRC, is to swap the PNP transistor's collector and emitter.
You can achieve this in a few ways,
- solder a transistor directly to a switch and fly wires to the PCB (or vero/perf), ie the transistor pads. the base stays constant so you only need to swap the collector and emitter, but if you've a healthy stash of transistors you could solder up two transistors to the switch, back to back.
One transistor to circuit
two-trans flipper (a DPDT works wired differently)
If the emitter goes to ground, which in the Bosstone case it does, then you really only need to flip the collector in a two-transistor setup:
- using a PCB from Moonn, or similar PCB from another supplier, which lets you swap out two transistors completely (though you could use one trans and jumper the PCB).
- using a scrap of vero or perf in conjunction with the switch, but depending on the complexity of the mod, probably easier to just solder directly to a switch in most cases.
@Feral Feline First off, hope your appointment went well. Seems like we all have some sort of roadblock (or many), but luckily we're pretty resilient.
I really love the sound of the flipped PNP in that vid! So... If I wanted to permanently do that, all I would need to do is flip the PNP transistor in the sockets? Very cool!! I love switches, though - that Moonn PCB is AWESOME. Bookmarked, and will see what else they might have. I'm a big fan of stomp switch PCBs, so I'll have to get some of those too!
Hopping over to the Baron Samedi thread now... this is great! Thanks a million.
