An old Parasit Studio 8 Bitar vero build finally housed. Combined it with this neat Tilt Control EQ (
http://guitar-fx-layouts.42897.x6.nabbl ... d8433.html) because I wanted it bassier, and it fit this leftover 8 row piece of stripboard. Turns out that's the height of the side of the enclosure, leaving room for the primary circuit. 22nf caps (centre freq 220Hz), so it's boosting below that/cutting above with an impractical multiturn trimpot.
Oh yeah, all the controls on this are internal - input resistance and output of the 8 BiTaR as well. Another self imposed limitation as I was curious if a no-knob octave down would be useful. Turns out... mehbe? I am still making incremental adjustments, figuring it out. I want to find the balance where it's not too loud or quiet compared to a fuzz or something, and not focused on an unflattering frequency. The tracking is pretty solid right now, of course glitchy in a cool way, and it has lots of low end but also enough highs.
Painted once again to resemble a rural metal band's demo tape from the early '90s. Or, just cause it's better to embrace the squiggle than stressing about straight lines and shit. That being said, here's my jig to make the process easier; two VHS cases (empty or loaded) taped together around the edges, for holding the enclosure and wrist support. Then you can also tape that onto a piece of cardboard or heck, a VCR, for extra holding power. Video tape is not dead!
