You sir are a gentleman and a scholar!
Off to etching!

Wow, that a neat layout! I gotta try it!
gentlemen, does anyone here know how to get it to print in the proper size to properly align with the lead spacing of the ICs? Alternatively - I can rebuild it in ExpressPCB and export a vector for those who wish to build.

Thank you so very much! All great inputs! jb351 - Road rage units can't accommodate electronics. I was in contact with the owner, but they don't do custom orders that can accommodate controls and pcbs the size I need them (6" depth) RnFR - I will take a look, that you! gtr2 - great website! I w...

Greetings, forum! I am presented with a challenge from a friend to build an completely analog multi-effect. So far the design will require to have 7 foot switches, all in one line, on the bottom of the pedal. I have spent a good portion of the weekend on google, but still can't find any enclosure th...

Hey fellow Torontonian!

Great build! Where did you get those cans?

You can get those used for $10 on craigslist here. I wouldn't worry so much about warranty. OTOH if you want it serviced and still have original receipt - take it to the store you got it from. They'll probably just replace it with a new one.

w00t w00t!!!

One thing I can say, these pedals continue to look more and more industrially built.
As far as the 'nailed the tube amplifier tone' phrase - I never read past it. A huge 'hype' alarm goes off in my brain.

can i possibly too have the pcb? thank you muchly!

I HAD THIS PEDAL!

They totally copied a whole bunch of BOSS pedals, some even sounded decent.
WAY COOL!!!

Seeing a 4013 and a Ge diode is enough data to get a boss, pearl, or DOD octave schem at hand and use that to verify the newly aquired pedal. Same thing for the octave up. Since it did not show a "normal" octave fuzz config (Phase splitter and 2 single sided rectifiers) first check the pe...

Congratulations and thanks a lot! Your website is a wealth of info on my favorite line of pedals (10s & master)
I've got the OT-10 for about $50 here locally over 4 months ago and still to date only mapped out the octave up... I have to learn to be as fast as you!

Awesome job!

I'm moving this month, but as soon as the bench will be back online I will build this. I love discrete stuff!

Thanks!

Finally got around to building this. I used the excellent layout by DimebuGG - to whom my gratitude is hereby extended! :applause: I like the pedal very much. It's smooth and has a lot of very useful features. I just wish it had a volume control as well, as I find that the effect is a little too qui...

Just put a pair of LEDs and an LDR into same piece of heatshrink tubing. make sure the contraption is lightproof. That should do it.

Another pcb for this one. If you guys want, I can post the ExpressPCB file for it.

I saw one of those for sale at a local pawnshop for $250. Still kick myself occasionally for not getting it...
Great job on gutshots! I hope one day we'll be able to clone this!

I own one of those and I like it a lot.

Wow, this is sooo different.
I'll take some pictures of mine this week.

Is it only my impression, or do these traces only let the really slim electrons through?
I would be very cautions if I were to solder on a board like this. The traces will come off before you know it...
