Uhh,

So i'm competent enough in the field of electronics to know how a circuit works, to read a schematic, and thusly build that circuit. I know the basics about these little electronic components used in said schematics... I have checked out the MAKE videos and Beavis Audio Research, which help me gain a much better understanding of what each component does....


But i want to know how to actually apply these things to DIY stompbox design.. I may be called Wizard, but in fact my magic is powerless on these metal boxes. :eek:

So if there are any websites that encompass the information in a more applicable sense, or perhaps books! (i enjoy reading)

please let me know!

Which would you suggest of theirs?

It looks pretty cool, but does it cover the uses of each component well?


Thanks! :)
