I built this pedal about 9 years ago using the attached files. It turned out very good. It still works today,

Re: POLL: What is your preferred PCB design software?
I vote for Sprint. I am using version 6.0 and it is very easy to use. The price was reasonable too.
I also use DIYLC for schematics.

Re: Shin-ei/Univox Uni-Vibe [Replica Files]
Does anyone have a good link for the Univibe Replica PCB Transfer files? The wayback machine has several component layout files, but the link to the transfer PCB image is broken. I found the link to the PCB transfer is broken everywhere I have looked on the internet. Can anyone help? I would like to...

Re: Tube Preamp/Pedal Switch
Thanks for the reply. In one position, the output will be the full preamp signal, intended to be sent to a power amp. The other position will be attenuated for use as an effects pedal or amp emulation pedal. I would need to switch to the appropriate mode BEFORE using it. If I am going to use it as a...

Tube Preamp/Pedal Switch
I am building a stomp box that can be used as a preamp or as a pedal. This will be based on the preamp of a hot-rodded Marshall.
The output of a 4-stage tube preamp is too hot for the input of am amp, so I wanted to install a switch that will attenuate the output for use as a pedal.

Re: Danelectro Honey Tone Amp Doesn't Work
This is what I was talking about. Would the zeners on the input provide protection for the op amp? If so, what values would you recommend?

Danelectro Honey Tone Amp Doesn't Work
I was using my Danelectro Honey Tone amp with an audio signal probe I built to troubleshoot audio circuits. It worked great until I used it to probe a tube preamp circuit. Now there is no output. I think I blew the op amp (TL072) because the signal is too high in a tube preamp. I will replace the op...

Re: Friedman BE-OD Pedal [traced]
I was wondering why Friedman and others have Vbias going through an op amp? Is there an advantage to this like less noise or is this just something you do with unused op amps?

Re: Rangemaster; Trouble finding trannies that bias
I bought the OC-44 Germanium Transistor from SmallBear. The price is $8.95, which is expensive, but it biased perfectly and has relatively low noise. I bought one off of eBay that was unusable.

Re: Amptweaker - Tight Metal [traced]
I have heard it mentioned in this forum that you can build the Tight Metal and Tight Rock from the same layout, but with different component values. Does anyone have the component values of the tight rock (or a schematic with values)?

Re: GTFO - A true valve high-gain overdrive
DarkRain,
What kind of inductor do you use in your SMPS? I am using a toroid inductor rated at 3 amps, but it takes a lot of space. I like how compact your power supply is.
Thank you for sharing your GTFO information. It has really been educational.

Re: Roc Pro 1000 combo - volume and pop problems
I have a Fender Roc Pro 700 and it has the same problem. After looking at the schematic, I noticed that volume and gain pots are linear instead of Log. I think this was a design flaw. If the volume pot was changed to a log taper pot, it would prevent this sudden jump in volume. I haven't done that, ...
