Happy New Year! Whatcha building?

[blackieNYC]

What will your first new pedal of 2016 be?

[Kipper4]

Happy new year Blackie and everyone.
String damper to finish and a dynamic treble booster. They've both been sitting on the bench for a week or two.
Oh and a lm3080 dyna comp which is going well.

[Ben Lyman]

Happy New Year!

It's getting there:

[Keppy]

Phase II, followed by a synth of my own design.

[SuzukiScottie]

Got a few on the go currently.

One knob fuzz, Grant distortion, Meathead, LPB, Ge fuzzface.

It's always the boxing that holds me back, specifically painting, baking, reviewing the finish and sometimes re-doing it again, artwork, labelling etc etc.

I'm not in any rush though![emoji106]🏻[emoji2]

Happy new year folks:

Got a few on the go:

Mr Astro's Tremshifter nearly done - clear coat the box, drill it and stick it in. ( Cheers for the guidance Rob.)

yet another:

Germanium Fuzz face

Rangemaster

Fuzzrite

RAT

Zen

Vox teardrop guitar effects box comprising of treble / bass boost (V8401), repeater (V809) and distortion (V8162)

All in differing stages of completion!

and a special thanks to Electric Warrior for giving me his knowledge on how to tweek Tone Benders and Germanium stuff in general much appreciated and extremely helpful Thank You. Have a great 2016.

[Elijah-Baley]

I have to complete: Fuzz Factory, BSIAB II, Little Angel (I wish).

I have to build: Tycobrahe Octafuzz, Fuzz Face, Rebote Delay 2.5.

I'm waiting new components for: Rat, Rub-a-Dub Reverb Deluxe, Zombie Chorus, Snow White Auto Wah, Tremulus Lune, X-Fuzz, and to finish a modded Smokey Amp.

A lot of stuff for me

Have fun and happy new year!

HNY all...
Started building my own idea for a drum machine a while back - lots of toggle switches & old school CMOS sequencing. This will take a while to finish... quite a while....

[duck_arse]

a delay.

I think that covers me for when it doesn't get finished, too.

[blackieNYC]

Excellent! I'm mapping out a metal sound based around a 4049 distortion and a two-band parametric eq. Been toying with a graphic eq and loving the variety that a little bump or two(just about anywhere) can give.

I finished building the Sixty 8 Drive into a 1590A just before midnight, but that wont count for 2016


Bass Overdrive (http://www.diystompboxes.com/smfforum/index.php?topic=112744.msg1041653#msg1041653)

A 1590A comp, boost, and overdrive in a 1590BB

Maybe some other voodoo as yet to be determined   

[sajy_ho]

Probably Thunderbird, or maybe Noise gate expander...

[davent]

Happy New Year! Before i can start/finish another pedal have a 6AQ5 based HoSo 56 amp that must be finished.

All sorts of projects for the new year!
Isolated multi-out power supply with temp controlled colling fan, usb chargers for phones/ipads
Danelectro fabtone based bass OD
More PT2399 devices (equinox solstice chorus delay etc)
5 channel looper
Coron ds8 clone
Bunch of Quackspikes and a few delux units with loop send/return
Another phaser
Then who knows! Octave as i haven't tried that yet.

2015 was the year my hard-drive crashed (AAAAHHHH SHIIIIIITTTTT) and took with it a nice 1590a layout for a Decimator (and layouts and schematics of a a neat 1590a Prince of Tone, a Crybaby 535q, a 1590a Zendrive and a 1590a Timmy and possibly more I will not think of....).

That is still gnawing at me.

Very much.

What I did re-do after the crash is a 1590a SMD-layout for a cubed clari(not). This one will be ready for adulation in the next week(s). Hah. I am really looking forward to times without celebrations and the solitude and smoke of my trusted Weller.

Just finished the pcb build of a retro-project:  a clone of the PAIA 3750 Programmable Drum Set.

I had one of these when the kit was still available from PAIA ( 1982-ish was about the time I built it ).  It worked and the build got lost in a moving shuffle many, many years ago.
When I got with the current scene with DIY internet friendly forums and DIY guitar pedal sites, I ran across a PDF of the original article in Radio Electronics.  So with my 2015
board-etching skills, I made a board and stuffed it carefully.  And the darn thing works !    Brings back many memories.  Now it's going to be a challenge to
get an enclosure made up.  In 2016, I've resolved to purchase some wood-working tools which will help out a lot.

If anyone's interested in building one of these, I can give you some tips.  It's a messy PCB with 37 jumpers (yikes) and spaghetti traces galore. 
But I personally got a great deal of joy recreating an old electronics friend.  ( A colleague named the original "Chip" ).
The sounds are horrible by today's standards, but that's part of the charm.  I recall a review back in the day, " ... the snare sounds like
someone spitting on a piece of tin foil ... "

I'd like to build anything this year but, with a 6 month old, I doubt that's gonna happen 

[supercolio]

Happy new year!

Yesterday I finally managed to make a working envelope filter (after two miserable attempts on mutron III and mxr ef), seamoon funk machine! Today I'll box it up and start working on yet another filter! :3

Also I'd love to make Tremulus Lune and a proper bass overdrive pedal. Maybe someday!

[Pedalhead]

Waiting on some 9K1 resistors to build a Barbershop Overdrive.

Gonna have a go at Freppo's Into The Unknown Guitar Synth and attempt to build a ROG Tri-Vibe plus Wylie Moonrock.

Happy New Year.

I am kind of on a DOD kick here lately. Since I like to draw layouts and feel the need to build damn near everything, I'm in the middle of finishing up several of them that utilize the same layout but with different components. Also, I just started on an Ibanez CM5 layout to help fill the above need I mentioned. That, and I wanted another high gain distortion. lol.
