I got round to boxing my Cerberus Fuzz last night.
Background on the circuit can be found here:
http://www.madbeanpedals.com/forum/index.php?topic=6198.0 (http://www.madbeanpedals.com/forum/index.php?topic=6198.0)
I really need to get around to doing some soundclips for this, as it can go from nice normal fuzz tone, to raging glitchy octave fuzz monster with the green ringer in circuit.
The tone control adds a nice bit of tweakability to the circuit as well.
I have ordered a small batch of these and the Dirt Triumvirate (build report to come soon), so hopefully some of you guys will be able to check out the circuit too.
The two internal trimmers (Fuzz gain, and tone control mids) could easily be wired as external pots for extra tweakability.
Anyway, hope you guys like the pics!

I like everything about this build. The name is perfect:
Wow, that's awesome. Want.
I love the look of this.
well done for sure!
Whooo! That's hot.
When are you starting your pedal selling empire and where can I get on the waiting list ;)
Great finish on this one, and I agree that the name is perfect.
Demo please! :) Glad to see this come to fruition.
Hey guys,
Thanks for the comments!
Soundclips are this weekends project so I should have something in a couple of days (gonna do a demo of the Tonmeister and the Dirt Triumvirate as well).
Cheers!

Ha ha cheers Josh. I'll have some PCB's for the project for sale soon so... 'why buy.... when you can DIY' ;)
I think those purple PCB's are so cool, where do you get them?
I've been away all day and now I saw this.. That's great, raulduke! I'd really like to listen how these 3-in-1 pedals of yours sound! They're fascinating!

+1 on this!

This is really cool! Looking forward to the sound clip and I'll be looking out for the PCBs.
Cheers guys!
Your comments mean a lot so thanks.
Also, I finished of my Dirt Triumvirate build today as well.
This one is a LPB->BazzFuzz->OKF combo.
There are also pads on the PCB to allow you to build an Electra Distortion instead of an LPB (or any derivative, like the lovepedal COT50 etc.)
The DIP switch is for switching different caps in and out for the LPB to allow it to be used as a treble/mid/full range boost.
I cocked up drilling the enclosure so the LED is on the wrong side :P
Soundclips for both these beasts should be done soon.

My wife is going to kill me
WANT! Those are very nice builds. I will for sure want to hop in line for the pcb's of this fantastic duo!
Let me know when they are ready if any left!
Cheers!
I'm constantly blown away by the amount of talent around here. Just sayin'...
looking forward to a pcb for sale!
This is sickkkk!! I love it dude!

Steve,
Where do you get those type of knobs from? I am starting to like those alot and I need to find some for my RAH!
;D
Hey Dude,
Here you go.
They are from Farnell (UK based), but Im sure mouser/digikey will have something similar:

Aye CLIPS CLIPS CLIPS! ;D
Thanks for the link for those knobs! I saw similar at other places but not quite like those... pricey buggers but worth it
Love, is what I feel.
Cheers guys :).
Clips are coming I promise, I recorded some on my iPhone, but the Audiophile (i.e. snobby buggar) in me doesn't agree with the sound quality ;D
Time to get the recording rig out...

I have access to one of those Apogee USB mics designed for iOS. I've been meaning to give it a run and see if I can make decent (albeit lazy) recordings with the iPhone or iPad and Garageband.
Apologies for resurrecting an old thread but this is such a killer build! I'd love one of these pcbs if you have more lying around or make more
Well resurrected. I'm definitely up for a Cerberus!
Hey guys,
Good news; I do have some in stock.
I'll post a thread in buy/sell/trade!
I may have to grab one of these. And it just begs for a special enclosure. 8)
