    I will try the first stage up to the Dist pot A with whatever small signal germaniums biased to 6.8V and will see what happens. edit: Imgur folder here with some sims, maybe it should be reposted at diystompboxes. http://imgur.com/a/sgWgS

    I am thinking about simulating some stages of this (mainly the weird first stage and the tonestack) circuit to get an idea about the frequency response and stuff but i am not really sure what kind of germanium model can i use instead of the NTE102s. Would something like an AC128 could be good in place of the originals? Also it is probably time to do a preemptive NTE102 buying spree on ebay, the remaining stock will fly off the shelves faster than ebola masks once somebody starts selling PCBs of this thing.

    Cool! So they didn't scraped off the model number and stuff from the transistors?

    How a classic hardware comp alter the sound apart from messing with it's volume. Sometimes when i see producers talking about their compressors it sounds like they are talking about EQs and saturators. I've seen countless opinions like "software comps suck man" and i want to see what is the huge deal about hardware comps. Or threads on Gearslutz where half of the userbase thinks that the reason why a currently chart topping track sounds good is because it was processed through a Pultec tube EQ and SSL buss comps etc. It sounds like bullshit to me but i'd rather hear it in real life.

    I am thinking about DIYing one and hopefully gain some more knowledge about compressors in the process, the amount of bullshit i can find about them is amazing.

    I use Reaper, mainly because the stock comp and EQ are good enough and really low CPU. (by good enough i mean if i can't get a good sound out of them is my fault or the source (sample, recording etc.) sucks and more frequently both combined with an untreated room and shitty monitors) I use some Variety Of Sound stuff for grit but sometimes i wish i had the real thing. I think the only non-free stuff i use is a reverb. Sometimes i am thinking about DIYing stuff like a 1176 (this might eventually happen, i need something more usable than a 2 knob Boss comp) and a SSL master buss comp but i am not sure if they are still relevant in 2014.

    That kinda looks like the "mistery head" from this article, i'm jelly (i won't put it in tags, it is too big) http://i134.photobucket.com/albums/q93/littlevegasandthefuzzparade/deathfromabove1979bassist8ut.jpg

    A removable touchpad sticker on the guitar's body might be a good middle of the road option until you grow out of your mall-goth phase.
  9. Don'tPostThePear
    it sets the musical key in which the pedal should harmonize comedy gold

    shiet i am jelly just finished this, the company who printed my design on the panel fucked up and what should have looked unfinished/alu turned out white. i wanna make some more of them until the end of august and put them in an ikea case

    post it on gearslutz, the recent post-dubstep producer crowd will buy the fuck out of those synths or maybe they already jumped on the real instrumentz!!1!! bandwagon started by the recent daft punk album (i think ive seen skream or spor stating that they are partially going disco, i welcome the funky basslines:doobie:) also the gnat is pretty small, she can't seriously expect you to sell it plus it is a gnat gnat

    this no it can do everything i want atm, i almost added a wet-only output to it a while ago but when i started to take it apart i found a DIP switch inside for that function so i left it unmodded.
  15. Don'tPostThePear
    to be honest with you i don't think that boosters are a good idea for a first build, they are totally unrewarding, i think they are more like discouraging will you sell that echo? i can't be bothered to build a delay, i hate that effect but i need one.
  16. Don'tPostThePear
    yes! you've made more than one diy pedal? (i remember the boost only) what is the name of that little mooer pedal?
  17. Don'tPostThePear
    TRIGGER WARNING!!!
  18. Don'tPostThePear
    You guys are arguing about the shitty tone of some intro of a song which is so bad that even muse ashamed to play it live.
  19. Don'tPostThePear
    Are there any good videos on the net about that pedal? maybe it sounds shit in a good way so i can add it to my GAS list
  20. Don'tPostThePear
    I did but i lost half of that post due to getting auto-logged-out during a quick edit. I almost delivered enough material for a whole Part II. of your (un)Worthy Mods themed vid in a single post.

    you can build your own freakenstein (the pic is kinda big so i just link it) http://juansolo.demon.co.uk/stompage/schematics/Torchy's%20Veros/Distortion_Overdrive/John%20Hollis%20Crash%20Sync/Crash%20Sync.gif the osc 100k trimpot is the osc pot on the freak, the rate pot controls a sinewave low-freq osc (endless schematics about them on the net) which is were not in the original design but a common building block (you can see them in tremolos, phasers, choruses etc. in anything that can make that sweeping sound by itself) that sinewave modulator basically acting like turning the osc pot up and down. basically this is how the pedal was born in 2-3 posts: http://www.diystompboxes.com/smfforum/index.php?topic=55913.0 all the other stuff is just cosmetics (the box, the knife switch, the voltage meter etc.)
  22. Don'tPostThePear
    do you have a song on your band's new album where you use any of them on bass? it would be cool to hear a few ideas how to use delay on bass.
  23. Don'tPostThePear
    What is that black (and white) pedal between the tuner and the ekko? And why 3 delays?
  24. Don'tPostThePear
    powered this shit up this morning, fun times were had now comes the cosmetics and a better power supply, chedda asked for samples, i will look into it
