Title: GOTA Power Boost-EHX LPB-1
Post by: Thewintersoldier on June 30, 2022, 05:57:16 PM
Don't like 1590a builds? Me neither. Like simple boosts? Yeah, I do too. The power boost is a simple lpb-1 based on the Madbean donut. I wanted to build one but I had a really hard time finding an lpb-1 in a 125b format and I didn't want to do Vero, and I was chatting with my guy David of effectslayouts and he said say no more fam. He made this layout for me to fab boards. It was a nice surprise and a lovely gesture, one of many reasons I love the diy community. I based my design on a lesser seen version of the original unit. The colors came out great on this tayda UV print. Power Man aka Luke Cage is the power booster lol. No demo because it's a boost people, it makes things louder or more compressed. Also Im getting over covid so loud noise makes my head hurt worse. The members of the illuminati and a select group of others will be getting one of these boards to build.

Glad you are on the mend.  Lot's of people in my orbit have been getting COVID, recently.

My MBP Donut is the simplest pedal I have ever fallen in love with.  The LPB-1 is one of those circuits you could look at and say, "This can't possibly be worth building," but you'd be wrong.  It doesn't do much, but it does it very well.

Nice work!

I'd never seen that original artwork, fantastic homage! Like EBK says it's a wonderful circuit

Sweet build! How you Mached that blue on the enclosure and knob you nailed it perfectly.  I never played a straight boost before I'm curious now.

Freakin' rad inside and out! Totally hear you on the veroboard side. Now seeing yours makes me want to add a bypass to mine.
