What's on the workbench?

[Robert]

Sounds absolutely dreadful, I assume you only added it to the order so the pedal would qualify for free shipping?

It was meant to be. The 3-band parametric EQ lets you shape the Raincoat in all sorts of ways that a simple Tone control just can't offer....

But then I hit the octave footswitch.... and oh man. Not only do you get the Superfuzz-like octave up, but I was really surprised to hear the octave down effect similar to the Jordan Bosstone when you hit the right notes.

It really takes the circuit to the next level, seriously.

PedalPCB Raincoat Deluxe !!!

This is purely a Mockup of what could be, No PCB at this moment!
Maybe something like this:

I'm going to have to start working overtime just to keep up with the mockups!

 

[ADAOCE]

I’m confused. Are you building a pcb for the JA Fuzz or is this module only to insert into the actual pedal?

 

[Robert]

At the moment these are modules to use with the original pedal, but there's more to come.

 

[ADAOCE]

That’s what I figured. Thanks!

That looks incredible!
May I suggest a faceplate with 7.8mm holes for the mini pots as well, for these knobs?

They make both visibility and grip significantly easier for that kind of pot!

Nevermind I see. =)

Never seen those before, they fit over the plastic pot shafts?

Yup! I’ve had success with them on both these:

One minor issue I ran into is that the threaded collar of the 9mm pots isn't quite long enough (for my comfort) to reach through the enclosure and the faceplate...

I could knock another 0.2mm off the thickness of the faceplate, but I don't think that's going to be enough for a good solid grip.

I might have to change the top row of pots to standard 16mm.

It's probably what you think it is, unless you think it's something other than what it is.
