os mutantes fuzz question

[luko-man]

ive got this schematic an am wondering where the power comes from??? can anyone help

[CynicalMan]

It look like there should be +9v at where the 3M3, 2k5, 1M and 5k resistors connect. Ground should be at where the transistors' emitters, the diodes and the volume pot connect.

Edit: You can find a better schematic here: http://www.geocities.com/diygescorp/schematics.html

ive modifyed it but i dont know how to attatch images off of my hard drive  help please??

From the read this before you post thread:
"You can upload pictures in the gallery such as your photo builds/schematics/pictures of your pedals etc... Simply go to:

Once you are logged in, choose add item from the left sidebar.

Once uploaded, simply click on the photo and copy the URL and paste it into your message."

IIRC there was a good thread about this circuit I would search.

The image isn't showing up, but I went to the link by quoting you and seeing what the link was that you put in.

The 9V and ground that you have added look correct. I've built this circuit and had the same questions at first.

I would build it from this schematic if I were you (vs. the other one linked in this thread) because this circuit is a little simpler and the schematic from the Brazilian article linked is hard to see.

The input cap makes a huge difference on the sound of this circuit. You could put in two or three input caps and switch between them and have totally different sounding fuzzes.

  great idea or i might add a tone control like this one on the bottom of the page

Slighty OT. They have a new album coming out...leaked already but I haven't listened to it.
