I made the OCD v3 from IvIarks tagboard.
It's been on the side lines for a few weeks awaiting a more thorough debugging and all the time just winking at me from the shelf.
I could hear her whispering "You know you want to."
Today it got the better of me.
I had an idea which bit was wrong. In fact i kinda knew i was gonna go wrong when i made that section of the circuit. (retrospectively easy to say.
I probed and probed and some more each time the same section is where the signal cut out.
I put it back in the jaws and remove that whole section from the corner of the board and redid it.
This time the voltages seemed some where in the parish. That sounds like i know what i'm doing, really i dont.)
At least nearer to what i thought should be expected.
I probed it all over a few sections didnt give signal ((mostly those going to live or earth direct) more lessons learnt. AC Hum or pop).
Finally i thought the only place i havent probed was the output and lo and behold it works.
I've Put it away  while i try to debugg another circuit i did last night but i'm looking forward to beta testing the OCD V3 at last.
I'll report back later tonight on how its the most amazing yet.
Chaio for now

Nice one, it's always satisfying when you get it going!

I'm very satisfied with it i feel i need some more time with it before i can say i have the best tone i can get out of it but the prelimanary results are very good.
Thanks mate.
I might have to do the stratorastro version next time.
I've done the voodoo lab OD and its nice too.
