Title: Current MB project similar to Lavache/Electra overdrive?
Post by: thesameage on January 14, 2017, 05:10:15 AM
Is there anything on the current madbean roster that is similar to the Lavache/Electra? I have an electra drive that I really like but would love to build something similar that can go from subtle to more fuzz.

I just finished up a vero of the DBA interstellar overdriver. I normally stay away from overdives, they usually aren't my cup of tea. This one was weird tho. It was subtle drive to pretty fuzzed out. I actually might build another sometime soon. Pretty low parts count too. You can find the project on tag board effects.

if you want to build the interstellar OD, I have pcbs for through hole and SMD versions with an extensive build doc available through oshpark in the link in my signature. depending on your transistors it can get very gnarly/fuzzy.

I ordered a set of pcbs from OSH that r basically a lpb1 into a La Vache. It'll go from overdrive to fuzz to square wave

Your design?

yeah I got the idea from the velvet fuzz which is a boost in front of a plexidrive.
