DEMO perced harmz (Soviet Percolation Station)

Build Rating

5.00 star(s)

Built mostly stock, except for the semiconductors. Used an IT308 for Q1, and a toggle in Q2 to switch between a germ GT404 and a silicon KT315 (I have the specs for each of the germs written down, but I'll have to dig it up). Diodes are some high vf germs I got from SmallBear, I think. Measure about .8vf
470pf strapped across the base and collector of each transistor, and a 10k+3.3n to ground between the board and lug 3 of the volume pot.

C- Buffered because I ain't no friend to unbuffered Percs

This was a fun one. Definitely among the gnarliest percolators I've done. I like that the germ in Q2 can get kinda trumpet

This sounds great! Would love to know the HFE of the transistors if you don't mind sharing. Where did you get the Transistor flipper board?

I actually found my notes!


Transistor readings are from a TC1-alike, diode readings from my DMM

Edit - the transistor swapper board Moonn Electronics

Awesome!! Thank you!

Ok, this 'n really's flipping my switch! Some of the metallic clanka-KRiNgGGghH!
That and some really cool sounding fuzz-textures. Does the perc-thing but in a RUDE way.

Best-brewed-Percolator-I've-Heard—period!
