LPD Osu Compressor

[Cozybuilder]

TSBM (the small box master) does it again.

Just curious Law, what is the circuit? [OS for Orange Squeezer? but the u- is it for unique? unbelievable? unworldly?]

Thanks Russ! The circuit's a modified version of the Bearhug by Jon Patton. The name Osu is the Japanese word for press (following my Japanese named pedal theme). I had already used Shiboru (squeeze) for my variation on the Engineers Thumb and Tamochi (sustain) for my optical compressor design, so I had to be creative

Screaming thing NUTSO.

Just for further clarification, Jon Patton goes by midwayfair on the forums. He's designed other circuits a well, info here.

Someone on madbean posted a link to some steel enclosures that look very useable for stompboxes. One of them is pretty similar to the RAT enclosure, well, browsing their stock I found this http://www.ebay.com/itm/Procraft-Steel-Project-Box-4-1-2-x-1-7-8-x-1-5-8-PB1-XX-BK-/261178632815?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3ccf75aa6f
Looks to be about right for a 1590a build, just thought someone might be interested here or take it as a challenge to build in a 2 piece 1590a size enclosure.

I could use half of it as a little chassis to build one of those submini amps Thomasha is always making. Cool link.

ten bucks? make em yershelf for nowt! (I'll post a pic of my latest two tomorrow.)

[duck_arse]

they cost nothing, and have plenty of character, which you can mostly cover with paint and wood.

Nice. I like the way you make the screw tabs. I hadn't thought of making another piece attached with a pop rivet. I'm going to have to try my hand at making one.

Mini CE-2

The etch is slightly misaligned, so I'll have to fix that on the next go.  The "Level" control will also be changed to "Depth."  Not sure what I was thinking on that one. 

[bloxstompboxes]

Very nicely done Pick! Reminds me of work with all that SMT. Wait, I am at work. I take it you baked it rather than soldered by hand?

[pickdropper]

Thanks Blox.

Nope, all hand soldered SMT.

[Luke51411]

Madbean Egghead, first try with alcohol ink.

[Pettol]

Wow!

[peterg]

Wow is right! 4 ICs in a 1590a box is the bench mark for crazy.

Luke. Nicely done! What jacks are you using?

[FuzzFanatic71]

Just saw this in ILF. You must have so much patience and the steady hand of a brain surgeon to be able to pull that off. Awesome stuff pickdropper, my hat goes off to you.

Here's a 'no knob fuzz' - switches for feedback loop and for clipping LED:

Rumbletone-
Nice clean box in & out. This looks like an ideal candidate for someone to stuff in a 1590LB for their first time with that enclosure.

Oh?



Pickdropper-
That is one of the slickest builds I've seen- and hand soldering the SMCs is a true art. I'm impressed! You've really upped the ante, especially for us stuck in the through-hole world.
