Title: Sprout - more volume!
Post by: the3secondrule on August 20, 2011, 11:41:36 AM
here's a quick and simple mod to get more volume out of the sprout (and mangler, snack shack, and any other fuzzface, I imagine) - increase r5. I bumped it up from 82r up to 1k for a MASSIVE vol boost.

sounds totally killer now!

awesome, thanks dude. I built it and noticed that cranked all the way up was just under unity gain still.

Thanks!

I just realized how similar the FF and Colorsound Fuzz schematics are to each other. Though there is slightly different values used, the topology is almost identical. Comparing the sprout to Dragonfly's CS One Knob Fuzz that I built that resistor is 820R on DF's version. That would be why the one I built has tons of volume and now I know how to calm it a bit!  :)
