Screamer Transistor

look at the modifications pdf at ggg. Put the diodes in like on the Asymetric Clipping Modification, then wire a SPST switch across the red diode, when the switch is open you get asymmetric clipping, when the switch is closed it shorts out the red diode and you get normal clipping.

sounds great!! but i`m a little confused if i do this:

am i getting symetrical clipping in one position and asymetrical in the other postion ??(i dont care how much diodes i use)

Yes that would work. What I meant was do it like the second picture from this thread http://www.diystompboxes.com/smfforum/index.php?topic=55081.0 except the green wire should go to the middle lug of the switch.

is the layout above right for the switch between the asymetrical(right) and symetrical(left) switch,??, because i dont hear any difference

[rasco22862]

any reply?

[rasco22862]

i just want to know if the layout for the clipping switch is correct. Thanks

yeah it's correct. The difference is subtle and probably only noticable at lower gains.

does anybody know the rc4558nb??? i recieve a recommendation from these.
