WOW - they're gorgeous!!!

my valvecatser. no tone, no volume, just gain to 11.

completely half assed, but it works. i made it tonight while i sit here drinking alone because my wife had to work.

needs some troubleshooting, because i have no gain under 5 or so....

Some photos and a little videoclip too.

very nice, i hope you can share some ideas on the TONE part, what did you do with it? is it based on rebote delay 2.5 ?

teej212 · January 01, 2011, 12:13:55 PM

its analog, so no. awesome looking build!

I believe the rebote is digital, right?
This one is a true analog delay. There's so many trimpots

And the tone control is a simple low-pass filter.

Where did you place the low pass filter in the circuit, though?

Last two builds, a "triangle" BMP with etched and painted enclosure and a Craig Anderton Wah-AntiWah.

anyone got a sound sample of the wah anti-wah?

That big muff is AMAZING!

My Shin Ei Octave Box. Painted by hand, by a friend.

that's pretty cool. looks like a bad acid trip.

Not yet a pedal, but i wanted to share. I had done a tap tempo delay before, based on the echo base. This one is based on the PT-80. The main board is the PT-80 delay, and i wanted it to be a platform i could use with regular pots or with another board with a PIC controller. PWM output does the "chorus" thing, and the middle led shows how that's affecting the signal.
The switch on the right, it's for saving/loading a preset of all the settings, that's why the repeats and level is also going through a digipot.

I had lots of issues with noise that were taken care of except one. I didn't know the signal on the digital pots couldn't go over Vdd, and since the PT-80 works at 12V with the buffers biased at half that (i think, i'm a noob) it's probably the reason why the loudest notes i play on the guitar peak and distort... I'm going to try using a 10v regulator instead of the 12v one and see how it goes... If anyone has better suggestions, please let me know. Thanks

Looking nice!!!
Where did you buy those pots?

They are Alpha potentiometers, ordered them from musikding.de

It looks nice, but i think i went too far for my knowledge (as i often do, but hey, how would we learn without the failures?), i think i'm going to do another simpler daughter board that has the regular 2x 50K pots for repeats and level, and control the delay time and chorus with the PIC (and i'll use a smaller PIC).

Gelb is my local music place, great bunch of guys. Their accessories guy is way into the rockbox stuff, he can repeat the spiel about the paint job on command! I keep trying to tell him it's just a tubescreamer inside though!

Actually you can put it in a lot of places in the circuit, I chose to put it before the the signal is delayed. Pretty simple, but it worked well for me.

Very nice work dragonfly!
Those swirly boxes are great. I know if I tried that mine would just end up plain brown

Its a rat, with the circuit from this thread stuck on with the second foot switch.

I decided to carve my design and labels into a powdercoated enclosure with a rotary tool and it went pretty well. A bit rough, but not bad by the time I was done... and I think it could give some pretty nice results if you paid more attention to the direction it was cutting and such... and also had a less bulky rotary. Next time...

Its a little sketchy because I can't bring myself to plan an enclosure, and end up eyeballing everything... then have to do way more work to actually fit things in.
