Collosalus again

I gave the first (technically the second because I troubleshot the first PCB to death) Collosalus build to a buddy of mine because it sounded so impressive when he played it.  He's a killer player and it really needed to be on his board.

I've missed it from time to time and thought I put together another one for me.  I've also been fiddling with getting the board size down on the Coda bypass to be able to fit it in a 1590A.  I mounted the electros and the relay to the bottom, snug against the stomp switch.  I also got rid of the pads and components for the momentary setting to further reduce the footprint.

The knobs are the gold sparkles from BLMS and I think they look kind of cool on the weird green enclosure.  I think this was a second from PPP.  I should really put this on a scope to get it dialed in but sounds great with a minimum of fuss.



I hadn't accounted for how close that Kobi output jack is to the trimmer but I made it fit by "extending" the holes down a tad and using slightly larger washers.  A nice quiet MXR (though I still miss the Reticon sound) and clickless bypass...what's not to love???  I'll hang on to this one.

I used the Coda (from Etcher's Paradise) but drew up a smaller layout and left off the momentary function.
