New guy here, I've bean looking around for a clean, compact compressor for bass guitar. The bearhug caught my eye but the link to the schematic is deprecated, and 1776 is closed for covid. Is there a revised bearhug, or something else you'd recommend?
Thanks
Edit: or does anyone have the stripboard schematic? I'm a total noob so I'm hesitant to try to reverse engineer it from the 1776 bom
I use the afterlife in my pedalboard as effect. It's compact ad do the job.
Afterlife is great. For me, as a bass player, it feels like running in quicksand. The bear hug is fantastic, but after building an easy dozen compressors, I settled in the EHX soul preacher. This is all ironic because I got into building because I was looking for a good impression. I started with the opticomp at BYOC. I built several incarnation of the Ross compressor. Aion has a couple I am working on (well, need to start) now.

I second the Bear Hug. It's great. Built it from the layout on tagboard effects. Make sure to read through the comments though, there are some changes Suggested by Jon in there that improve it a bit.
