Re: Blackstone Appliances - MOSFET OD (2SV3.12) [ goop-alarm ] [traced]

I put together a slightly different version of the Blackstone. - It can be set with: one Red channel+one Brown Channel or two Red channels or two Brown channels. - The two channels have independent tone/mids controls. - There is a buffer on the output stage to lower the output impedance. - LEDs show...

Re: Blackstone Appliances - MOSFET OD (2SV3.12) [ goop-alarm ] [traced]

I don't know how interesting it is at this stage but I redrew the schematics in a way that makes more sense to me. I hope you will find it interesting.

Re: TC MojoMojo

Does anybody have a schematic? I checked the MojoMojo a while ago and it looked very similar to the Dark Matter. I suspect they use the same PCB. Your best bet is probably use the Dark Matter schematic and tweak it. When I examined the MojoMojo, I used this list and I added a couple of values I got...

Boss font

I'm looking for the the font used by Boss to write the name of the pedals (e.g. Metal Zone MT-2).

I think it was available at some point on the net under then name "Toss" but it has disappeared.

Thank you!

Re: Baja Music Man guitar and bass onboard preamps [documentation]

A slight deviation - I built the preamp stock from bajaman's layout, but wasn't getting anything significant from the tone pots and it just sounded weak and too quiet on the whole. I later read about using a buffer between the blend pot and the circuit, so I toyed around with the idea of building a...

Based on the schematic I posted (19 Nov 2008, 11:49) I would try to:
C12 = 100n
C11 = 100n

I would also try to increase C10 and C9 to 10uF

Re: Xotic - RC Booster [traced]

I don't know if it is of any help but I had a BB preamp Bass for a few days and it had 10nF caps instead of 4.7nF on the treble side of the tone stack. Compared the guitar version, this should more or less lower the frequency by 1 octave. I suspect the tone stack is the same across the Xotic range (...

Re: Pedal Costs

I would like to point out that, unless I didn't get how you did the calculation, you haven't actually calculated the "cost" of the pedal but the cost of the parts/components. You also have to add the cost of time, electricity, computer/software, central heating, telephone, internet, web ho...

Re: Matsumin Funky Wah

You can try to increase C6 and C9 - it might help improve the low frequencies.

I would also try to increase R4 to increase the sensitivity.
