Devi multi-fuzz advice
Posted: Sun Oct 09, 2011 10:12 am
Hi everybody,
I have an admission to make; my board is currently devi-less. I know I need to fix this, but I want to do it in a big way and need some advice. I have in my possession 3 devi DIY kits from the ETSY store, a disaster fuzz (DF and PL kit), an SM kit and a TP kit.
What I was thinking of doing is building all three kits into one enclosure, with each one being individually switchable. I know each kit can be built a variety of ways, but I wanted it to go; INPUT -> YEAR OF THE RAT -> TP/ANEMIA (switchable as there is only 1 resistor change) -> DISASTER FUZZ -> OUTPUT.
Now, the questions I have for you beautiful people-
1) Do you guys think this would be a good use of the kits? I know I could build them individually and dot them around my chain but it just makes for more patch cables and power supplies. I like stacking high gain fuzzes on lower gain fuzzes, which is why I thought this would be good. I'd love any thoughts though.
2) If I draw up a plan in MS Paint (or similar) is there anyone who could help me figure out the wiring? I've build a few pedals in the past, but I think I may need some help on this one...
As I say, anyone with any input is totally welcome. If you think this is a terrible plan, just tell me why! If you think it's a great plan, join me and build one too!
Please help a Devi-less brother out, I needs mo' fuzz.
