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 the original Dirty Little Secret from Catalinbread. It's a great sounding overdrive that emulates the sound of a Marshall JTM45. The Rock/Rawk switch goes between two different gain settings, and this is a good candidate to be run at 18v for more headroom.
I built the pcb for this. Really nice layout and the pedal fired up right away. Looking at the drill template, I don't know if it's going to fit with the switch without the switch lugs touching the board, there doesn't seem to be enough clearance with the board mounted pots. Anyone try it yet?
Can you layout another Marshall in a Box (MIAB)? I love sound of Carl Martin Plexitone, it's very sweet and have high gain. Hope you can layout CMPT :D
Great! This one is the best incarnation of the DLS, sounds really great

Socket and try. J201s can be tricky to bias.

ReplyDeleteOne thing, on the solder side of the perf board,holes for 3nf cap are missing.
