Wow, this is really a clean etching!  And I like that simple design!

Thanks ! I use glossy magazinepaper & laserprinter to transfer the design onto the enclosure.
The toner attaches very well, so that way you get a relative clean etch.

Wow that looks great! Care to explain what is on the inside or is that a closely guarded secret?

You were close! :icon_biggrin:
It's a mix of a DLS and a BSIAB II. I started breadbording the DLS and modifying it. I added a BSIABII type gain stage into it and changed some filters, the tone control is the from the DLS. The results are extraordinary.

Thats pretty much one of the best looking pedals I've ever seen.  But I can't help but think that maybe white or cream knobs would look killer!  Well done.  And I was going to guess DLS, given the knob layout is the same!

Thanks! Try to look up Dragonfly's tutorial.

Great colour combination on that swirl!

This sounds really interesting! Have you posted the schematic and/or layout somewhere? I use a clone of the DLS that I really like, but I really would like to try out your version!

btw: Nik from catalinbread posts pictures of clone ("tribute" ;D) pedals in his blog. He was so kind to show my DLS and SFT there and I´m sure that he would be happy to have a picture of your piece of art there, too.

Slade

Sorry, I don't have any demos of the pedal, I had to send it to his owner as soon as I finished it.
I'll try to draw the schem soon to show it to you if you want it, but first I want to make one of this pedals for me :icon_frown: Then I could make a demo for you to listen.

What kind of switch is the one you use for bypass? Can't guess from the pic.
Great pedal, Daniel, a really PRO effect :icon_cool:

Hi slade!
the bypass switch is a standard 3pdt, but i use a truebypass "template" pcb over it, like the ones that smallbear sells, just for keeping it clean and avoid wire fatigue.
I spent a lot of time this hollydays working the layout out, it´s a very tight fit!
Thanks for your words, i feel embarrased now when i see your builds..

That's really cool, and I'm sure all this working hollidays will worth the effort.
And don't feel embarrased, you're one of the greatest distortion designers that I know.. Glad you're Chilean too! :icon_smile:

Well, here's an attempt to immortalize a typical chilean tale boy with one of my etchings: Papelucho!

It's a Microamp clone, the PCB is a modified version of the Tonepad's PCB for tyhis proyect, thanks to Francisco Peña for his inspiration ;)

Hi
Really nice pedal. Cool art work and a very well laid out PCB.
I can appreciate the amount of time you have put in to the layout, just to get the hook up wires for the stomp switches to end up just at the right place. That takes a lot of "thinking 10 steps ahead" not to get you cornered. But that's what make PCB layout interesting. It would not be any fun if it was easy. It's like golf, you compete with yourself.

But why not go all the way and fixate the stomp switches directly to the "mother board". There is room and the connection points are close.
The only thing you have to do is to use MRX style PCB mounted jacks that have an inside nut. Then you do not have to worry about the angel between the jack's and the STP switches.

The only bad sounding stomp box is an unbuilt stomp box. ;-)
