Those are beautiful, Arcane.
My first build now works after some troubleshooting. Just a Bazz Fuss with an input cap switch. It sounds so good for being so simple.

Re: Let's see your finished DIY projects!
That's not bad at all for a first build. It'll get neater & easier as you go along.

That's a solid first build right there. You'll develop your style as you fall deeper down the rabbit hole.

Good effing lord, man. That's a thing of beauty. As always.
I'm more like a mids-ist than a bassist.

Thanks, man. Been populating the board slowly since November. I'm sure some of those nights were spent drinking. I pray she works when I get to it!jrmy wrote:Good effing lord, man. That's a thing of beauty. As always.

Re: Let's see your finished DIY projects!
The idea was to build a Harmonic Percolator 2in1 pedal with separate in/outputs so it can be routed in multiple places on a pedalboard.
I was sent a knob less than I should have so it's got my tele knob on there until it arrives.


The Systech Overdrive sounds fantastic! I'm building it off schematics I've found online so I'm going to compare it to some online demos and see if it needs any tweaks. But hey, I think I'm gonna build myself one exactly like this. I'll probably add an expression input for the EQ since it's very wan-like. If you want a cocked wah fuzz, this is it!

Re: Let's see your finished DIY projects!
Very cool! I really like the idea of the separate in/outs for each effect. Gets some interesting Ideas for pedal board layout.

Re: Let's see your finished DIY projects!
First "for-fun" build for me in a while. I whipped up the circuit in March, but just now got around to boxing it up. Here's the dev thread with full details:
http://byocelectronics.com/board/viewto ... 41&t=48664
I call it the Wahscillator. It's a op-amp wah (gyrator) controlled by an LFO.
Here's a clip of the final circuit after a few mods:
The stamping didn't turn out as good as I had hoped. I think my white ink is going bad. Also I just realized I think I stamped the control labels backward. I guess I'll be redoing that tomorrow.
I used one of 1776 Effects' opto bypass boards. Pretty nifty. I also used some shielded cable for a few of the runs. It was a pain in the ass to work with, but it makes for a neater build.
