I agree your pedals are very pretty. I love the idea of this one (if it is what I think it is). If it's an effects order switcher did you wire it like this- (and if so, does it pop when you use it?)

Thanks, and thanks all for your comments !

Order :

Hokuzai Reverb (Belton Spring)
Compressor (Ross clone)
2&3 are a reverser effect, which can reverse the order of the loops.
Simple ABY box
Feedback looper stutter

I'll upload more gear here :http://www.facebook.com/horssujetmusic the facebook page of my personal project.


John Lyons, Stunning pedal design + Bokeh + HDR = Instant love. Seriously, one of the most beautiful pedal I've seen lately. Any videos/sounds available, or more description?

And here's the thing Soldersqueeze :

No HDR used here. :no:

Thank you!
There are a few videos on my youtube channel of the zonk.

It's a Silicon version of the Hornby Skews Zonk Machine.
I added some variability here and there.

Thanks for that, kind of you to post it! For anyone wondering, it's the same wiring on a different layout switch. Might have to build me one for my electronic rig :)

Haha ok then, the second picture looks like hdr. High contrast difference and 2 different exposure :) Anyway, thanks for the clips, I'll check that !
And about the reverser, that's probably why my pedalboard is so versatile. 2 reverser and I can do pretty much anything with my loops recorded in the RC2 and the Kaoss Pad !

Fuzz for the avodon. Switchable two channels of buxom fuzz. Acetone Fuzzmaster with omitted fuzz control for full on fuzz, volume, and a toggle for full scoop and scoop plus some mids. Heavy as fuck. Double beat for the other channel.

fuzz face sanyo 2SA202. 100KA volume pot. 330 Ohm resistor on the negative supply makes it totally quiet.

Nice :thumb:

Angry Japanese silicon is probably my favourite kind of fuzz.

What transistors did you use for the DB? I know the original asks for 2sc1000, just wondering if you found some or a good replacement or if the type isn't important...

looks good in orange and purple, let it ride. painted plastic does not last. you need some kind of vinyl die but that would only be good to make it black. how are you doing the graphics so good and with two colors? these must be screen printed right? you might want to look into lock not washers to turtle the jacks back into the box just a little more. I think it looks cleaner. other than that, your builds look really pro.

I would say socket or bread board. Try ones that are between 100-200-300 hfe. Higher than than sounded crappy. The best dbeat I made was with nte123A transistors.
