Well hello there.. Again. I thought I'd share another build I just finished because that is what we do here.
A friend of mine who is visually impaired asked that I make him a 3-in-1, so several of the layout choices were made based on his needs. I think it turned out awesome!
The effects:
EQD Arrows (Effectslayouts Lawn Darts PCB) > Prince of Tone (Pauper PCB) > Zendrive (Mahayana PCB) > switchable K-style buffer (Delyk CornyKlone PCB)
The affects:
- Arrows is a really good 'neutral' boost. It's transparent and loud! It's great at pushing overdrives and amps alike.
- The PoT is a great "transparent" overdrive / light distortion. The Presence trimmer and Turbo/Lo-Mids DIPs were relocated to the outside to accommodate my buddy's needs. To me, they are rather subtle and best left inside for most applications.
- The Zendrive is.. well, it's a darn good Zendrive. This one features an OPA2604 opamp and a High/Low gain toggle which changes the range of the Gain pot!
- I also included a switchable output buffer in case he needs to run long cables. K-style buffers are my favorite, as they seem to be generally neutral when engaged!
The Glamour Shot:
I may not have the best graphic design skills around here (the waves are a vinyl decal), but I am mighty confident in my ability to lay out a pedal in a classy and symmetrical way..
