I did a quick demo to show some friends how my first pedal builds sound.
Not the best audio (my camera likes to compress the audio too much) and I probably spent too much time talking but it gives a general idea!
Great demo -- thanks!
They both sound great. I haven't thought about that ego driver until hearing your demo. I really like it. Thanks
no probem! glad the demo was useful to someone.
Ive gigged with it a few times now, very happy with it.
Im half way through a pair of wolfshirts, green beans and a pork barrel at the minute. Also got some parts together for a valve caster.
Hey was that a bit of Decadence Dance in there? 8)
Nice demo!
yeah! Im a bit of a Nuno nut...well, an N4 nut at least! ;
You use LEDS or just diodes? Thought you said diodes.. And the trannies were the 2n7000's I assume? Sounds fabulous! I have a green bean and an ego driver board I got from Brian recently... Can't wait!
I used the 5mm clear LED's but I prefer the sound of the 2n7000 clipping.
Ive just finished a Green Bean and I think overall i prefer the Egodriver. Ther Green Bean sounds great with a slightly dirty amp but for playing live I like the OD from the egodriver better.
That Egodriver sounds fantastic. I just made one and it's by far my favourite pedal amongst a sea of pedals including Klon Centaur clone, Fulldrive, Tubescreamer. Interestingly, i put my clip swicth in exactly the same place as you did. I've never heard of LEDs being used for clipping but i love that tone. Do people ever put clipping LEDs on display?
The Rat is a famous LED clipping pedal. Been out since the 80's.
Yes sometimes people do! I don't personally like doing that because I don't find the clipping diodes to be useful visually. I just use LED's for bypass, I don't need a light show. Just my opinion.
