I've seen a couple of the earlier handmade units carrying low hfe AC128s. Measured between 35-60.

so to get this straight what people (including me ) like when they hear the UA is a solid state power amp
wow that's the least bit frightening...
got to check my ears

heard of some clips online and liked it a lot
is there any schem lying around?

well i had one for repair with overheating problems
installing screen grid resistors really helped a lot
i wouldn't put 1k though cause it will alter the tone a lot as JHS said
I used 220ohm 5W just to be sure, but 100 ohm will also do the trick

well i'm curious to see a pic of this "great" tube to see if it's a new design or just another rebrand...

got any link with pics?

could it be yellow mojo covering that noise reduction circuit Brian is talking about?

a 3 transistor noise gate you can find the schem around....

BEWARE STOMPBOXERS
I KNOW IT
JUDGEMENT DAY (CJOD SCHEM) IS COMING




...can't wait to see what is under that pricey goop

How´s about (the use of) a stereo-poti (to achieve the desired result) ?

analogguru

how about a stereo pot?

thanks rotagilla
well i'm looking for polyester film type caps for the smoothness they add to a distorted sound and so far xicon greenies are good enough but still looking for something better in the same voltage rating/size/price range.

well i have seen lots of people in this forum (and other forums also) saying that they don't like them
can anyone pleaz explain cause i'm about to order a bunch of them and if they suck i would like to get some nice alternatives with almost same size/volt ratings

yappppppppp

this one is a nice full range boost pedal and easy to build

thanks Brian

well i haven't thought of that possibility

I guess that you mean cascading the two chips and controlling clock/delay time from a single pot. right?

do you guys know of a delay chip with internal ram capable of 700ms up to 1s clean delay?

or mosfet ala box of rock maybe...

the second schematic is more accurate, it/s the one with 430k/43k at the base of the transistor. Collector resistor is 10k. That means that the transistor-stage is a blatant clone of the first series EH Screaming Bird Treble Booster followed by a Smashdrive (with shorted drive poti) - unbelievable ...

that it uses opamps

might just be a couple of LM386

It's pricy ...not so popular ...so lets wait and see

yap just like the krank distorttus maximus does (1 tranny + 1 lm386)

listening to the clips I would say that the Fuzz God is probably based on the fuzz factory. I say based and not cloned
Then maybe a random octave/ring generator added like the one posted in diy stompbox forum some days ago
Just a guess though...
