cd4069's good for fuzz?

[samhay]

i'd love to see your schematic, sam.

i'm one of them guys who just don't "get it". i'm a hack, and lucky. fuzzes are easy. all ya need is patience and the willingness to waste components.
eventually, you make it work.

Happy to oblige and started a new thread here: http://www.diystompboxes.com/smfforum/index.php?topic=101547.0.

thanks brother sam, i'm on it!!!

i've been really researching this stuff, i think if i can glean enough understanding of what components do what, i can pull it off.

boxed, and hooked up the diode clipper. it's fairly subtle, but i like the way the "snake eyes" light when the clipper is on.

lead mode, clipper off:



rhythm mode, clipper off:



boogie snake lead mode, clipper on:



controls are gain, clipper on/off tone   across the top, then volume lower middle. left footswitch is effect/bypass, right is lead/rhythm mode.
the led between the footswitches is always on so you know which mode is active when you kick it on. if i was slick, maybe i could have done the blue led in that one for bypass too. but i'm not that slick.
