PPCB 6 band parametric eq pot version

[Locrian99]

Built this one same time I built my Caesar. Thought I’d share my thoughts on it.

I built this to put after my od/dirt section on my board to just fine tune stuff before it hits my mod/reverb/delay. Does what I wanted it to. Nothing real exciting but gets the job done sort of thing.

I hadn’t really looked into eq pedals much before building this. I just knew I wanted one. Was kind of surprised when I pulled up the build report and just how simple it was. Did some research on them after and how the gyrator set up works etc. kind of started a bit of a tone stack rabbit hole from there. Anyways very simple straight forward build. I like the pot set up for its simplicity in execution. Now that it looks like tayda will do the drilling for sliders I may build another in the future just because I think the sliders would be cool. Footswitch wiring in this guy could be a bit cleaner, didn’t have a picture of the enclosure fully put together so it’s the one on the right in the picture (Charlie brown is for a park auto wah stripboard build I did).

Overall I’d recommend this for a simple build that while not flashy has plenty of utility.

Im loving the Peanuts design! Absolutely killer dude! But it think the simplicity of the other one is catching my attention! I REALLY REALLY love the labels for the knobs!

Yea that peanuts enclosure was pretty cool. It was actually a friend of mines idea. That was one of my very first builds and then awhile later I decided to do some decals on the enclosure. I really didn’t love the sound. It wasn’t awful sounded as it should from demos just something I don’t think I would use after actually playing it. So stripped it all and thag enclosure now has Black Russian muff clone in it. The circuit is in my vero graveyard along with a shoot the moon tremolo, an awful big muff type thing, and a few others that were made and were just meh. Funny these decals my favorite one yet that I’ve done that I also think turned out about the best was my first one.

Great looking builds, all!

I have to admit, though, the Charlie Brown one is my fave. So perfect, wish I'd thought of that for an autowah build, such as the Snow White Auto-Wah, as it's supposedly the most wah-like filter out there as opposed to the plethora of quacky auto-filters.

I'd just keep trying out wah circuits until I found one I was happy with — that enclosure's graphic is too good to use for any other circuit other than a wah of some type.

That circuit sounds 100x better than that park auto wah circuit. And that outro was perfect. I still have that art template saved in ink scape if I find another auto wah. You guys make me feel like I shouldn’t have stripped that one. Lol.

Boo there’s not a ppcb of that one. Resisting the urge to make the 29x20 vero layout on tag board effects.

Excellent recommendation! I love it!!! Had a slight hiccup with bad lm13700. But this thing is just fun to play. Very very responsive to pick attack.

Charlie will live again! Soon as I get the enclosure drilled and painted!
