This is a library of perfboard and single-sided PCB effect layouts for guitar and bass. I'm not an electrical engineer by any stretch of the imagination, just a DIY'er who likes drawing layouts. It is meant for the hobbyist (so commercial use of any of these layout is not allowed without permission) and as a way to give back to the online DIY community.
Here's Lovepedal's clone of Paul C's Timmy again. This time with on-board pots and a slightly modified power section. Sean added some extra power filtering that's just unnecessary, so I simplified things. Drilling template can be found here.
You'd have to get creative and wire the extra diodes on the switch, but it's doable. I'll be honest though, I built one Timmy with the switch and couldn't tell a difference with the extra diodes. YMMV
Hey guys, I just finished this and it's not boxed yet. Got an awful squealing and no sound whatsoever.. i couldn't find a mistake, pls make some suggestions what should I check...
Why the 1uF is grayed? What does it mean, non-polar?
ReplyDeleteI think it's denoting a large non-polar film cap yeh.
DeleteExactly. I laid it out with these specifically in mind:

will this one work?
Deletehttp://sfe-electronics.com/kategori/2934-1uf-400v-mylar-capacitor.html?search_query=1uF&results=16
It'll work, it's just gonna be huge. That cap is better suited for the old Amp 11 layout.
DeleteIs the same pedal like OD11 right? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteYep. Same thing.
DeleteWish me luck, I'm about to start building this one. Wish the "Unferivied" can be changed soon.

I stripped the wires/pots off after frustrated debug attempt ..tried both perf and etch and got nothing
i dont know why I suck at this so much ...did anyone get this working?
I am so frustrated ..!!
I actually build one over the weekend and it fired right up. Have you tried debugging with this method?
Deletehttp://www.diystompboxes.com/pedals/debug.html
ill give another try then
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeletebuild it. It has too much treble, where can I change this?
Thanks for all your work
Not Bernd
You can try increasing the input cap value and also the value of the resistor coming off Treble 3.
DeleteHi... no gain at all, only clean sound. Changed the ic many times, remaind the same. Idea?
ReplyDeleteNb: I replaced 3k3 res goes to lug 1 gain pot with 3k9
DeleteIf I wanted to do a switch with the additional diodes like the timmy, would it be possible on this board?
ReplyDeleteYou'd have to get creative and wire the extra diodes on the switch, but it's doable. I'll be honest though, I built one Timmy with the switch and couldn't tell a difference with the extra diodes. YMMV
DeleteIt works, the drawing is good. I built a few pedals from the drawings here. Thanks for them.
ReplyDelete@Effects Layouts, the pot values below your layout. I guess Tone B5K is Treble in layout?
ReplyDeleteYes, treble. Pardon the typo.

ReplyDeleteVerified works great i used 40nf cozi didnt have 47nf.. but it works good
ReplyDeleteIs it missing boost?
ReplyDeleteyes this version without boost section but if you google you'll find the other version too
Deletebuilt the pedal but i get only clean sound, i changed the pot and diodes but it is a same result
ReplyDeletefernando there is another version from japanese web site he designed it with booster section.
