Morning Glory

[Jopn]

Excited to see a perf for this, thanks!

I'm looking it over quick and it's a little tricky without some legend for the standing resistors. 

Are the blue/red/black traces all intersecting near the bottom of the board directly in line with lug 2 of the tone?  Or are some on one side of the board and others on the other?

[Kipper4]

the reds blues and blacks near the bottom do not intersect.
the thin blue one is ground, notice to left the green offboard wire.
The black to the left of C3 is Vb.
Zoom in and you will see all standing resistors have black lettering so you know whats what.
Refer back to the schematic in page one of this post to compare I used the same numbers for parts. Unless i've made a gaff.
Theres a slight mistake the junction r9 d3 d5 goes direct to pin 7 not to the switch pad.
Talking of which i neglected to put the switch on the layout the switch pads for the 470p (C10) are situated at L,D and M,H on the perf
oops.
I guess it needs updating already
I hope this help

Not in the pdf I don't think.  I cranked it up to 400% and it didn't make any markings appear on the uprights.

I just updated try this one

Crap, my bad on that one.  Apparently it was because I was using Firefox's PDF viewer rather than the full blown Reader.

Flippin' technology!

[Kipper4]

Does it make sense now.
You could compare it to the schemo if you like.
I'll probably build it before next week and try to verify the layout.
Glad you got it.

Did it sound good?

Yeh it sounded alright,
image hosting over 2mb this is the board I etched  from irmcdermott over at madbeans, I just never got round to boxing it.

I should get it fired  up...its ages since I've heard it, got so many builds to do you know what its like.

WOW!! that big pic wasn't supposed to be that big Sorry!! Not very good with technology, I am Jimmy photon  look alike (only kiddin) somebody tell me how to send these pics so you just see the  link?? Is that right.

[Kipper4]

So madbeans Ian used to do the morning glory.
I'd be interested in seeing the layout please.

[fendman]

I will look it up for you in the morning...going to ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

Cheers for that

I've perfed this tonight and if i get time tommorow evening i will do the off board wiring 9Manadatory debug) and testing.
I'll let you know as soon as it's verified guys.

Just an FYI, the Bluesbreaker project is up, and the PCB supports building a Morning Glory:

Cerulean (Bluesbreaker)

Check out the documentation to see what you can do with it. There are a bunch of other projects available as well (including a few curiosities), and I'm starting things off with a buy-2-get-1 sale. Check the main project listing page for details on that.

I completed my build today and I have to say i'm impressed with the morning glory.
I did another layout and its verified. I have abandoned my first layout posted earlier in the thread until i get time to revisit it.
I did redo a perf layout that works from Ian at madbeans layout.
I will not be posting it here but i will share it if anyone wants to look.
Thanks for the help guys

I love that bluesbreaker tone. 

<unsolicited plug> I grabbed one of Aion's boards so that I can socket it for the different mods he's got in the build doc.  Looking forward to playing with this one some more </unsolicited plug>

In case anyone's interested, I modified my BluesBreaker layout for the Morning Glory circuit - 2.2x2.0 will fit 1590B - pots and LED can be board mounted.  I changed the power protection - removed the anti-parallel P6KE120 fuse and added a series Schottky diode 1N5817.  Let me know if you build it or find any problems.

Layout:

Nice one Gordon.
Thanks for sharing. What program did you use to make the pcb please.

[GGBB]

I use a combination of things.  DIYLC to start with, then a Java program I wrote to process the DIYLC layout, then InkScape.

[Kipper4]

Thats neat buddy. good work. Thanks

[therealfindo]

this is the board I etched  from irmcdermott over at madbeans

Do you have a link to that board? I tried searching and couldn't find it... Cheers!
