Here's a collection of vero (stripboard) and tagboard guitar and bass effect layouts that we have put together covering many classic and popular effects in growing numbers. Many of these have been posted on freestompboxes.org, so check that site out for great discussions on building your own effect pedals. Enjoy the builds and please also visit us on Facebook and Twitter
This one was recently traced on FSB and as i have a soft spot for Devi & Dwarfcraft circuits alone and together, i had to draw it up.. A bit like original Soda Meiser, or at least some revisions of it, but this time with a Chaos switch and a Drone-knob.
Another one from our friend Geiri, thanks for this again mate :o)
Info about the original:
The Bit : Legend of Fuzz has been compared to the Shin-ei Companion FY-2 fuzz, but with a stronger gate on circuit settings. Some say, it’s a sound that haunts you at night… the desperate 8 bit beep that reminds you your heart is empty and you are close to death. Nostalgia is a lie. It tells you some how something that was is better than what is or what could be. Here it is though. A fuzz that elicits the sound of old video games… I guess. I mean, a lot of my gated fuzzes can do that for you. This one likes to particularly twist your guitar signal in a way that’s relatively like a saw tooth… a pretty fucked up saw tooth. Maybe we’ll define a new kind of saw tooth wave shape now… shark tooth, because that’s what this fuzz sounds like… a shark’s mouth full of teeth ready to clench down, and it doesn’t matter if a few are lost while eating cold rusted steel from a 1950′s buick rotting on the bottom of the ocean, because there is more where that came from. Unmerciful bastard of a fuzz really… just like that beep beep beep counting down the moments till your inevitable death
Adding to Devi library.
Devi is definitely one of the good people in the industry. Can't say this enough. You should most definitely think about getting kits (and why not production pedals) from her Etsy page. Her pricing is very appealing too...
We had some deficit on basic Devi circuits. I'm fully aware that these circuits are not for everyone, but i personally enjoy Devi's amazing work a lot. To support her, you should most definitely think about getting kits (and why not production pedals) from her Etsy page. Her pricing is very appealing too...
Request. It's all noise to me, but some of you lot seem to like them! :o)
Info from Devi about the original Disaster Fuzz:
Why would you like the Disaster Fuzz? Because fuck you that’s why. The
disaster fuzz is filled with rolling waves of oscillation… or metal
gates. Depends on what you are looking for. I guess that’s why there
is a handy dandy flip switch to give you the option of one or the
other. The Disaster Fuzz is the little brother of the Truly Beautiful
Disaster. It has just the options you need to make noise, or fuzz
love. It’s only too bad the controls aren’t labeled FUCK and YOU
because that’s exactly how you’ll feel when you run a guitar, bass, or
vibrating sexual device through this little fuzz. Demons expel from
your fingers. Cum for days. This pedal is fancy and amazing. Don’t
feel like a handsome dapper lad after using this pedal? Then you aren’t
doing it right. Please refer to the manual if you have any problems.
Oh right, there’s isn’t one. WHO THE FUCK IS FLYING THE PLANE THEN???
So there you have it!
The SPST will switch between the Disaster Fuzz and Krackle Fuzz.
The Hyperion is everything the Big Muff wishes it could be. It can cut
through in a loud, live, band setting. It has a gorgeous sustain that
full of harmonically rich tonal characteristics that doesn’t require
much tweaking of your amp, guitar, or pedal board to get just the right
sound you are looking for. The gain control is incredibly interactive
allowing for intense over the top octavia-style leads, wooly gainy
rhythm, or pulled back all the way gives you just enough grit with out
being too gated. The Hyperion is also the first pedal to have the honor
of being stolen and cloned by another pedal company (and sold for twice
the price no less!). So while most people are cloning and tweaking the
Big Muff… it looks like some people are beginning to find it more
useful to clone and tweak the Hyperion… and rightfully, because a modern
age, deserves a modern high gain fuzz worth imitating.
A quicky for you Devi fans. This is actually a really good sounding overdrive for such a low parts count. I did a layout for this previously based on a guessed schematic but this is the corrected versions from Devi's schematic.
There you go Aaron ;o) Currently unverified of course.
Should also be a quick mod to make it into a Aenima, Torn's Peaker or Never Drive if anyone prefers.
