that thing is so Whackey, I can't figure out how it can FLY !!!
It don't look like a TS.
Has very little resemblance to DIST+ [except for the presence of OA's and diodes].
And...has some wierd wired feedback loop ?
Even with all this going for it, it does look like a Bad Bird.
>>Either I'm missing it, or there is absence of a voltage divider ? <<

Wow, that thing sounds weird.

I downloaded that entire dirty bird page many moons ago and finally set out to do the pcb. I will say that his pcb is correct as I used it in my build. Such a fun and strange pedal. Highly recommend it.

Holy shit.
Have you listened to the Tri-negister clips? I don't know if it had something to do with wearing headphones, but that was the WORST sounding piece of electronic junk ever! Gives me shutters and makes me feel nauseous.

Oh good, I'm glad you didn't take that as an insult. Anyway I'm sure it's electronically genius, but just sounds awful to me.

And just to make sure I'm not all negative I really liked the Buzz Saw, some nice bass riffs too. The first guitar clip reminds me of all the little speakers I've blown by turning the bass and volume all the way up on my amp. Sounds similar to that just without all the less pleasant sounds (like cone's about come undone).

Ha!... That appears to be debatable.
