Just the PCBs. Same situation as before - verified only by me. Not tested.

Super cool!

I put the schematic in eagle some time ago, but could never get a layout I liked.

I'll compare notes and such later today. :)

I updated the cap list with valid (in-stock) items, and adjusted the pcb to fit the new dimensions. I think I'm going to be etching this in the next few weeks, as time permits, and go for a build. It's a pretty good way of finding out if it'll work. Once done, I'll post my findings.

Its only been two days, not a few weeks. lol Calm yourself. :lol:

By the way, I have one of these if anyone needs anymore gut shots, but I think its already been covered. I got mine when I was helping a friend's dad clean out his garage. He gave me that and a few other pedals for helping for a few hours. I was planning on helping for free! The some of the other pedals were the an MXR Flanger (one of the earlier ones that has the cable to plug it in) and a Maestro PS-1A Phase Shifter.

Awesome thread! If these boards work for you I might have to try to build one myself!

Just wanted to say thanx for the schems for this.
I had an original in dead mint shape in for repair last week (dead 4013) and it sounded very good.
Would definitely make a good project.

Very cool. Did you end up using yours or mine? I have all the parts for mine, still sitting in the Mouser box from a couple weeks ago. Got my transparencies on a 4x6 pattern, all ready to go. The extra space on my PCB I filled up with an NPN Mindbender and a ROSS comp. Just got extra busy with school and car troubles. Semester's almost over though, and my car's back on the road. Let us know how the build goes.

:thumbsup

Hey, this is only sort of related, but can any of y'all explain how this works. I have some electronics understanding, but this makes no sense to me, and it seems like a really cool effect.
Thanks
