Meanderthal

 A bad pic of some of my builds...

I am not responsible for your imagination.

The Axis stands out from that bunch. Can't really tell but I assume it's sharpie-technique?

That and the mysterious black box on the left with a single footswitch. Care to share? :)

Meanderthal, watch out !!!!
One box is about to fall from the table !!!  :icon_mrgreen: :icon_mrgreen:
Nice work.

 Yeah, that's just a sharpie... It's an EH Axis/Guild foxey lady, not the RM fuzz face varient. The black mystery box is just a momentary switch wired momentary open or closed for different outputs. Good for triggering a sequencer, sustain pedal(keyboard), switching banks in a zoom, ya never really know when ya need one of these...

Here's my new pedal board and power supply.  The idea was to be able to use these effects as modular units.  Simply unscrew the 3 plate screws and disconnect power and insert a different unit.  I did some things wrong along the way but overall I'm happy.  The artwork is just color labels with clear coat.



Power supply is 7 isolated power circuits.  I desperately need a power on/off switch though.  DS-1 is shown for scale.

Here's my Mutron3 workalike.
It has nice sound to compared to the other ones I've tried, a bit tricky to dial in especially on the bandpass and hipass setting. Though it has the 10kHz wine from the 7660 chargepump. Guess I'll have to try the choke trick.

zeta, if you use the 7660 S, it has the same feature as the max 1044 chip, if you connect the (I think) pins 1 and 8 together, the freq goes out of the audible range. Direct replacement. look at the datasheet.
Nice pedal!

that looks great.  not only that, but i really love the way you put the word "workalike" on it.  honesty!

Please excuse the lettering. I haven't found an easy way to make lettering. :-(

Thanks for the tip, I'll check it out!

Hey, it's white, that's the holy grail of lettering for some of us. 

And I think it looks very nice, regardless - is the lettering hand done, or rub-on or what?

I FINALLY finished my English Channel from runoffgroove.com. What a great little circuit! Gets you real close to an AC30. Highly recommended!

That should be displayed in a glass cabinet!

Nice looper, tonefreak! Any particular schem you used or was it largely yourself?

Sorry... a couple months late on this... I've been so busy.

This is mine loosely based on the Fulltone loop that was extrapolated to accommodate more loops.

Cheers. Thanks for the kind words! It was the rub-on kind. My painter friend did the cosmetics for me. Only, the letters were hard to align and some of the letters tore. Next time inkjet decals perhaps. :-)

One of my buddies asked me to build him a booster, the result: the Fahrging Boostard:



Not really much to look at on the outside, it is the insides that I am really happy with:

It is essentially 2 boosters in one box: a SparkleBoost and an AMZ Mini-Booster sharing one perfboard. The middle control selects either one or the mini into the sparkle.

Yup - sure is pretty :)

Nice Booster!!!... Congrats!!!

Not a stompbox, and still need to find a way to package it up, but I just finished a binary clock as a christmas present for my father.   Used the schematic and info here, and did my own PCB layout. 

Tried to find a good balance between a lot of jumpers and a huge board.  Probably could have done better on both counts, but hey, it works!  Two things that made layout hard - restricting my arrangement of the LEDs/resistors to get them in the physical layout I want for the clock and to be aesthetically pleasing, and logic chips needing connections to the pins going every which way - mostly to other logic chips, which precludes a lot of making "pathways" under components.  (Hence the dozen or so jumpers)
