Re: Barber - Launch Pad

I got fed up of this pedal being an unknown, so I bought one. Board pics to follow when it arrives, and then minds more spatially-aware than mine can do a trace. ;) Essentially a balanced line drive with 1M imp, and .047uf to 1k series on the input, 20ka pot and 10p in feedback loop of first stage ...

Re: E.W.S. Fuzzy Drive

The questions I always ask is if people are going to complain about "cloning" are: ..... Is that everything you can say in your first post in this forum ? Not even a Hi or Hello ? Did you claim to have "designed" a clone ? 2. Almost everything is a clone!!!!! But nobody rips on ...

Re: Paul Cochrane - Timmy [traced]

A quick question for Paul, it might be a little personal so don't answer if you don't want to but with all the Danelectro "scandal" and this tread, have you noticed higher or lower sales of the Timmy or no difference at all? just curious Yeah - there was a big drop in sales that happened ...

Here are the quotes that got me thinking there were measuring tools/devices that could hear differences better than the human ear: "Problem is some people are satisfied with their ears only but can't seem to measure these differences in any objective way, and they refuse to try to do so. I have...

You have not read any of my posts, have you? I answered your questions in a way which proves that both sides have valid points. I think you are just trying to provoke people.

No; it's the analogguru and modman sandbox. At least it is NOT a playground for bootweakers to promote their products and conducting sales-stories. I think it´s getting time to get some "similar to TGP-regulations" here for bootweakers. But this is not my matter anymore. analogguru So tru...

Thanks madbean and teller. It's nice that these posts got moved into a thread that has been framed with the words "mojo" and "debunking." Oh well; at least we're not being tortured and forced to abjure belief in carbon comp resistors. Merely a difference in degree, though; I'd s...

Interesting discussion you guys are having. I have to admit, if my ass itches and I feel it itching , when the Medical doctor tells me it does not itch (and he is an expert with a degree), I still will contend that my ass itches...although I will thank him for his professional opinion, and assume he...

Re: Barber - Launch Pad

Is there a schem of this one some where? A search thru google returned zilch. It is the best *real* clean boost I ever had and would love to build a single channel into my guitar :) Super easy! just run a TL072 with a max1044 chip, you could put that together in an evening with the Max apps notes o...

Barber makes great stuff. Quality builds at affordable prices. That said, I don't think the DDSS is Rat based. I think it's closer to the TS family. LPD DDSS is feedback loop and shunt to ground clippers, take your pick as what you need to call it, but they don't sound like a Rat or TS. There is a ...
