This is basically just an Ugly Face, ain't it?
Well, I'd sworn off building anymore Ugly Faces, but I'm gonna have to give this one a go.Thaaat's the one! Indeed it is.
I couldn't recall which circuit this was... I kept going back to the John Hollis Crash Sync, which is close, but not exactly the same.
That's interesting, as I've tried the NE555 in the past and it didn't really do the ugly face thing. Will be cool to see how this schem compares to the others on the market, though.I'll have to look at the Ugly Face schematic, but at first glance I think it's a 1:1 clone.
It does use a ICM7555, the CMOS version of the 555 timer, however. The standard NE555 works as well, but the CMOS version behaves slightly different. It had me pulling my hair out trying to figure out why in the heck it wasn't behaving exactly like the original!
That said, I think I prefer it with the NE555 myself. It sounds a bit more interesting when the Threshold control is gating.
Skunk Anansie's Martin Ace Kent, no wait ... Skunk Baxter!New Look:
I just built one today according to the screen print, and it works flawlesslyI'm new to the pedalpcb community - on the product page for the nutty fuzz, all I see is an indication that build documents are coming soon. Where are you guys getting component info in order to build them before the documentation has been released?
I didn't test every possible combo, but the 9203s and the Tayda Superbrights gave me the best range and response out of those I did try, and I like it enough that that's what I'll use for all future Ugly Face buildsPerfect timing, I just popped back in here to ask about those parts, since it's likely the only things I don't already have on hand.
