Yay for the Sunking boards. I bought two just because they are red! Now I need some see-thorugh enclosures to show them off. I tried buying some made of transparent aluminium but it hasn't been invented yet  ;)

Thanks for the order guys.

That's one of my favorite Star Trek scenes, plesur . Watching Scotty talking into the mouse is hilarious.

It's not the PCB's and parts I'm needing, it's the enclosures! Buying pre powdercoated enclosures and getting the graphics on them is the expensive part for me!

I'm about to make a component order, are all the component lists the same for the fabbed boards?

Yes, I don't think there are any changes other than the Slow Loris, which I'm going to recommend 100kA for all three pots. I'm still working on the docs, and should have them up today.

Oh, and the new Road Rage requires a couple of extra 10uFs.

Is the slow loris/landgraff mod the same as a rat? is there any advantage over a standard rat or a 4 knob rat? The only difference I see is the 51pf cap instead of the 30pf between pins 1 and 8 and the switchable clipping section. I made a 4 knob rat with mosfet clippers and it sounds really good.

What difference does the 51pf cap make, and am I overlooking something?

also do the 4 knob rat mod I would replace the 47r with a 1kb right?

Yes, replace the 47R with a 1kB for the Ruetz mod.

As far as that 51pF cap, it is to control the slew rate (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slew_rate) of the op-amp. The 308 lets you control this externally with a cap, and it is a feature which can alter the dynamics at high gian (which is what the Rat excels at). The slightly higher value was probably chosen to limit the slew rate a little more than a stock Rat, thereby limiting the response to fast changes in high frequency response (i.e. makes it a little smoother sounding).
