DIY wolf computer

Post by fuzzmax »

HI! Does anyone got a WC and would be kind enough to share the solder side traces of the PCB? I've got everything ready to build one but only that is missing!
thanx

letsgocoyote provided detailed information in the Wolf Computer thread at FSB. Grab a pencil and paper, and draw a schematic based on his instructions!

Is the fass buzz a fuzz face circuit with different components? I remember reading that was the basis of the circuit.

How do you make those schematics? Lots of cut and paste or what?

Usually on Fuzz Face type circuits the bias control is working on the second transistor, since this is the one that clips (and fuzzes ;)). The first one basically only boosts.

I believe the second starve knob is a fine tuner. I believe this is desirable as the circuit is incredible sensitive to voltage.
