Hey folks,
The Ionizer 2 is based on the Devi Ever Hyperion 2. IMO this is one of the nastiest, gnarliest octave-sounding fuzzes out there and shines with a detuned guitar! Although the circuit itself is small from a components standpoint it is rather quirky (as most Devi Ever circuits are) in its layout. Looking at many of the Devi circuits out there, common components definitely occur: 100n caps, MPSA18 transistors, and a handful of common resistors.
Why am I starting with version 2 and not the original? Well, the Ionizer and Ionizer 2 circuits are virtually identical with one exception: the oscillation control which is merely putting a 100k pot before ground for most connections.
Anyways, here is the schematic and my final build. Like last tutorial I will be putting this out there in stages.
