Hmmm...so you can run this on a 9v with okay results? I will mostly use it with 18v but having a battery is alway a nice option when Im feeling especially lazy.

I've gotten all of the parts and prepared the vero. Now I just need to get the free time to slap it all together.

Hi, just noticed on the vero layout:

C13 and C2: The + sign and the - marking are in the same place. I assume that the + sign is in the correct direction and the - marking is wrong. Am I correct?

Hi, sorry for all of the questions, but I have one more. I made a mistake and bought an SMD resistor for R29 (604ohm).

Locally, I can get a 680ohm or 560ohm. Would either of these work as a sub?

Yes, go with the (+) marking. I didn't even realize those 'lytics had any markings until someone made me aware a while ago. Many of my older layouts has an occational mislabeled one.
Should get my eyesight checked...

Hi! guy. I'm form Thailand. I mod this layout for 9V battery by ICL7660 charge pumps and chang a little in PCB.

This's old layout.

This's ICL7660 charge pumps schematic.

for my experience, the openhaus sounds really bad with a charge pump... I've tried a LT1054 (100mA max output) and the pedal had a low volume and muddy sounds... Hope that you have a different result :popcorn:

Ohh i already heard your demo and i liked a lot the sound :D I searched a lot for clips/demos
I want know about the "max distortion", its really heavy a lot?(at the standard tune)
It works well boosted by other(overdrive/drive) pedal?(if i need more gain)
You know a place that i can buy the 2n1306/2n388 + lnd150n3-g + opa2604ap? (in a single store, cause the international shipping price is so damm high on some stores).

Sorry about the too many questions, its because i will need to spend more than $50 just to import some components, cause they dont have on my country.

PS:vero or madbean with corrections?

-The max distortion available depends from many parameters, like your pickups... my Stratocaster with low output pups gives me a totally different result from a HB guitar with hot pickups like the V100 in the video :mrgreen:
-I don't use to boost my Openhaus, so I cannot help you
-No, I've bought the germaniums and LND from Ebay and opamps from Banzaimusic
-I've used the Madbean layout with no problems

it sounds like an awesome high gain amp, and feels like that too, fluid legatos and pull offs, very heavy on the distortion side.

best dist pedal i've ever played/heard
