Re: Fender style/Brown sound/Dumble PCB boards
Are there any recorded examples? I'm curious how the noise floor might be on the crowed pcb's

Re: Catalinbread - Katzenkönig [traced]

Mesa was also known. [ or merely said to have, possibly by themselves ] to release schematics with intentional mistakes

Re: Sonomatic Doctordrive 2 [traced]
How do the Vic values compare to the ocd ? Since full of himself's designs are often variations of something else, what proceeded the ocd or was IT based on?

Re: Sonomatic Doctordrive 2 [traced]
Nice job so far, though if it's just an ocd is it worth the bother ? It's tough to get out of the case, pcb soldered in place to jacks after they're installed ?
I can say there is the 4148 protection diode in the lower right hand corner between the jack & pwr jack

Re: Sonomatic Doctordrive 2 [traced]
This pedal never had that sticker, but I think I'll just buy it. It's reasonably satisfying to play, I thought ocd were higher gain ? dr drive feels like diodes in the fb loop but maybe it's just a reduced gain ?

Re: Sonomatic Doctordrive 2 [traced]
60mm x 90mm this is all I have for images of the copper side. The trace broke off of the led so I had bent the lead over that's why it looks ugly.

Re: Sonomatic Doctordrive 2 [traced]
, it's a light/med overdrive so I wouldn't think it an ocd, I could be wrong i never liked [ or tried much ] ocds but I liked this box
Interesting how one guy kept the look and the other went way different [ with more offerings ]

Exactly , I can't find a website for these guys, though I see someone selling their version of an 808 on reverb, Similar case form factor, which is compact and sturdy, well designed I think. i fixed one for a friend that the dc protection diode blew when it was plugged in hot, it arched which was he...

Sonomatic - Doctordrive 2 [traced]
Anyone know this pedal Sonomatic Doctordrive 2 , made by a company in Buenos aires Argentina and billed as a 18watt amp emulation
It appears to have one opamp & two transistors but if it's a yats it sounds pretty good for a med/ lo gain pedal

Looks great, straight forward thanks, you weren't tempted to put a second stage volume [ master ] at the end ?
