As I mentioned here (http://www.madbeanpedals.com/forum/index.php?topic=12192.0), I'm redesigning a lot of the old etching projects to bring them up to my current standards. However, this doesn't have to be limited to things I've done. What are some projects you etchers would like to see available? Make some suggestions and they just might happen. I'm feeling over-confident :)
EHX POG, Digitech Whammy, Boss RV-5 and Frank Zappa's discography.

I Kiid.
..the green bean would be fun for newbies..
Maybe some difficult flanger!
Whatever you add i think all the junkies here will build anyway! :-/
Cheers Brian
You have such an awesome library of etchables already! I guess I will second the Green Bean and maybe a Rangemaster that has a little less Mojo would be cool.
We should get Haberdasher in on this discussion! I mean, he etches for all of us who don't want to get in on that stuff ourselves....... But...... I think a lot of people would like to see the old 2-channel Boneyard, and a lot of the stuff that's based on a well known boutique fx company that uses a lot of BS170 transistors.... There used to be a lot of that stuff around here. Also, the one box that brought me to this place (and I never built!!!!), the MI Audio Crunchbox!

I've just realised that I'm at a very odd place where there are no effects I actually want/need... It's peculiar and I'm sure I'll snap out of it shortly.

You sure you are feeling OK? :)
Daughter boards, daughter boards, all the daughter boards!
A madbean 3pdt.
A board for combining two 3008 chips to make a 3005
A wet/dry mix that can be added to various MB boards
Tap tempo board
Some sort of board that can hook up with the effect circuit so that you can use a momentary switch to rapidly engage and disengage the effect.
Splitter boards we can use to put a selection of options (like different trannies or diodes) that we can wire to the circuit board and increase our clipping options and what not.
Other things like this that I don't even know about.
Also vertical layouts for kokbox etc, like the stub I was done for the zombie.
That deadastronaut reverb chrome sphere has been pimping.
Would love to see a 1590a flanger or phase 90! ;-)
Have plans to do some smd versions that should fit the bill as soon as work slows down a bit
ZPSDX. lol.
Maybe some EQD stuff: Hummingbird/ Vox Repeat Percussion would be a rad pedal--especially if there was a way to accentuate or control some of the ring-moddish qualities.
I am addicted to etching. Its my favorite part of the build... well next to playing with the pedal. I am so excited that you are wanting to make more etchable layouts for us etchers. Thanks so much Brian.

+1
and a few others on my mind
OpAmp BMP
Green Bean
Univox SuperFuzz
Test Rig of some sorts
Dont know if it has been mentioned yet but...... this would be INCREDIBLY useful....
A de-facto drop in adapter board to use the MN3007 chip in place of the SAD1024. As compact as possible ;)
I know they have been done but, something readily available would make repairs and projects using the SAD chip much easier! 8)
is there a difference between the OSP tubescreamer in the extra projects and a green bean? Personally, Id like to see more single sided etchable delays, the only ones are the double cave dweller and the sea urchin. And not many ones elsewhere.
Ok had a think about things that would be nice that we currently make on vero...
A high voltage SMPS that takes a nice big inductor for around 190v. What it could do with to make it a nice generic tube device psu is a couple of caps and a 6v reg for the heaters (which we do on ours) and some input protection.
A board for our Pentode boost. Could be either sub mini or full sized. Where the BoobTube's been done by TH Custom, no one's done the Baby BoobTube which is quite different and very cool. Dead easy to do and would work well with the SMPS board.... http://juansolo.demon.co.uk/stompage/schematics/Tube%20Projects/BabyBoobTube.jpg
Finally a Mountain King Megalith. Looks silly hence fun.

yeah, I was thinking ADA, or even ADA with paul gilbert mod.
I'd love to see a Roger Mayer Voodoo Vibe or Voodoo Vibe Jr. There's an etching layout on FSB but I'd love to see your magic worked on it.
I don't know if the Jr. uses the same out of production waveform generator as the Sr. Honestly, I'm happy either way as I'm planning to do a Harbinger in the new year, but Mayer's version is a really cool take on the Univibe theme.

It's looking like just under 50 overdrive/distortion projects alone. Man, I'm really gonna want to re-build some of this stuff. I forgot just how many great circuits there are to do. I've ordered a new batch of PnP Blue in anticipation 8)

How about a version of the Sabertooth with the Mastotron mods included, and maybe a clean blend? Or, at the very least, just the clean blend.
Don't care for clean blends so much, just change some input and output caps and no loss on the low end. Totally forgot about the saber tooth though.its a good thing I don't know how to etch yet, else I'd have about 100 boards not built instead of just 50.

Q1+R2 could be for polarity protection (p-channel mosfet (BS250) + 1M).

Bingo. I've been using this a lot lately and it works great. Voltage drop is very very small. I'm only putting this arrangement in pos ground circuits (with n-channel mosfet) and stuff with charge pumps for the MBP projects, though. Other ones are just a zener in line with +9v. Actually, I'm using the same power scheme for ALL the projects pretty much. The zener, and 100uF and 100n caps to ground for decoupling.
Here's another "extra project" that never got released. I'm pretty proud of this layout...it took 5 tries to get it right. It's a PT2399 based chorus.

Really small voltage drop and wasted power!

I think we'll do a Phase90, but not as a single sided layout. I don't think I'm going to do a better one that what's out there. But, I got a nice compact double sided layout going. I'm thinking of adding on a transistor matcher circuit to this...as a breakaway. That would be pretty rad.
NOM stands for Normal/Open/Max (or min) and is a feedback switch.
And I would totally buy it.

Was going through all my transfers tonight to finish up a few builds and I came across Jon's Supreaux Deux with the built on charge pump. A Madbean version with board mounted pots would be awesome.

Every few days he posts a new bonerific pic of redone/new boards.
I'm really surprised I managed to pull this one off. It has a lot of parts and interconnectedness which proved challenging. I wanna build this, for sure. It's an MP Forrest Green comp.
An etchable 3007 Electric Mistress (current lover) without the volume pot (trim instead) and a charge pump on board with board mounted pots so it can be mounted sideways in a 1590BB and look like a tiny Deluxe Electric Mistress with top mounted jacks/switch... preferably with room for a battery too.

I'll be updating this layout with everything else, but it will be pretty much the same.
Here's the Double Muff. I made a couple of mods...changed the output caps to film, beefed up the PS filtering, etc. Main thing was using a DPDT for the switching between 1 and 2 stages with the second stage being fully bypass-able and input grounded. I don't like leaving loads on the outputs of circuits when you aren't using them for anything, so it seemed like the thing to do.
I had another idea for a mod on this. I have a little swell circuit (taken from the Perscription Electronics fuzz) that you could insert between the stages with another DPDT. So, you could have output swell from stage 1, or swell going into stage 2 or no swell. Not sure how well the circuit works in this setting but I'll give it a try.

Thanks Jimi but I couldn't find anything to etch from or a parts list. Did I miss it?
Wow, I guess not. Someone etched me one based off this thread, I just looked at mine, it's a galego layout. My bad

I need to learn to etch. STAT! or I'm gonna go broke STAT!
I looked at the Pork Loin. It seems interesting. It's kind of a Klon/Timmy mashup. Clean blend with a fairly Timmy-ish OD section. So, let's do that but with about 1/3rd as many parts. This is some Timmy with a clean blend and independent boost section. I think it will sound super.

I'm game for trying that. Bet it will sound supper.

Might as well make it a 1590A since its a simple circuit. lol
Perhaps a Leslie simulator?

I love the lettering. Great layout.
The best part of this thread is the hilarious names Bean keeps giving to the projects.
I've also done a Crash Sync with optional LFO. I think it will be pretty rad.
>John Hollis Crash Sync
Brian, will this include the necessary LFO on-board, or will it be a sort of "plug in LFO here." (The effect on its own does nothing without sweeping.)

It will have the option of Square/Triangle/None on the PCB. I used to have one of these (no LFO) in a wah shell and it was bad.ass. I might make a spot on the board to add on a ramp circuit for the photocell. I'll have to test it out.

Cool. I have a box for this effect, but I'm not totally sure I'm happy with my layout yet, and it'll be interesting to see what you've done with it in terms of the LFO choice.

It's a totally vanilla LFO. Used this one many times in different settings.
I saw someone else has requested a Megalith layout. I made a vero one off the schematic below and it sounds brutal (awesome) and the schematic was given out over at FSB by the maker. I would love to see a 1590B version with a DPDT for the notch switch since the rotary is over kill for 3 caps.

Hehe the little sword in the bean's hand ... :)
Is it?
It'd be a bit of a 'mare, but incorporating the new +12/-12v (or even better if it can be regged to -15/-15v) road rage (would have to test it to make sure it worked as well as the 12v feed) and adding the anti-RFI caps, you could do an all-inclusive Maestro PS-1A...

I'd really like to build a reverb! Anything of that sort would be great. I quite fancy the EHX cathedral, but I guess that would be too hard to build. ;)
Did I forget to list the reverb? There will be two. One Belton and one fv-1.
Working on a Dead Astronaut Chasm verb atm, but a FV-1 reverb sounds dead fascinating to me :D

I'm on the fence about doing a Dead Astronaut Chasm. I was hoping he would release the schematics so someone can take a crack at a better laid out PCB. The off-board wiring seems to be a nightmare for a clean build.
This is the FV-1 utility board. It's mono and goes in a 1590B. Obviously, you gotta make some choices as to whether or not you are going to use more than one effect, hence you need a switch of some type. It's got the EEPROM there, or you can use the canned FV-1 chip to make a reverb or something.
mysterioso sr? i always kinda wanted to build one of those.
Looks pretty neat. Can't wait
Quote from: Haberdasher on December 17, 2013, 01:16:06 AM

What I'm doing instead is a new project called the Mysterion. It uses the Blackstone as basic topology, but with many changes/mods/few improvements. Plus, it is two channel with a real boost. I'm going to work on verifying it ASAP. On paper, it looks right on. I already have a board etched...

Ah yes, I saw that listed but didn't know if it was something new entirely.
The Mysterioso is probably the least popular od on the discontinued list. Crazy, because it happens to be one of the very best imho. I'll look forward to taking a look at the Mysterion then.
Glad I saw this. Just stuffed a Mysterioso and I think I'll just hold off on boxing it up.
I decided there should be two Sunking layouts. The one I showed earlier has some mods and the knob layout is like the original Klon. This one is 100% original circuit (no mods) and has a vertical layout instead. Both should accept top mounted jacks.
Actually, the second one happened because I forgot I already did the first one. Which is not surprising, considering how many layouts I've done in the last three weeks.

I love the warning.. great work Brian.
I've never built a Small Clone, and we need that on the website. This one will require a verify. I'm a little concerned about the proximity of the clock to the audio path. Then again, there is only so much you can do with a 1590B and through-hole. Hopefully, it will not be an issue.
Little Expandora right here.

firecrotch may have played a part in it, but i think spirochaetes are what actually killed him. eeeew.
can we see the new Faultline? i'm making a box for that
Still looking for a tube driver or maybe even a triple valvecaster
i haven't even finished planning my first build, but the sheer volume of projects here has me excited... when do you think the etching layouts will drop? (unless i'm taking crazy pills, i just see the through hole layouts attached ;) )
i have another idea! SuperFuzz !! i got tired of that pointdexter. it is too mean, i want a smooth fuzz-octaver.
super fuzz with a trimmer for the octave and a couple of extra pads to make a tone pot arrangement like the pointdexter
How about a Boss OC-2 Octave Pedal? That would be a sweet addition!
We can do a super fuzz. I'll look into the OC-2.

I would love to see a 1590B superfuzz that is etchable. They few I came across either had terrible pot placement or super tiny traces and was hard to troubleshoot. Its a really fun circuit and think it would be popular. Thanks Brian.
A little SuperFuzz love. The movie "Superbad" was on the other night, so I named the project after McLovin'.
Beautiful. Very exciting.

Awesome!
Okay, I don't have a lot of confidence in getting a good layout for the OC-2. At least not an etching layout. However, I think I could make it into a fabbed 1590B board if there is any interest. It would be a nice alternative to the Low Rider. Two lower octaves in a smaller box.
I'd certainly be interested in an OC-2 board! It is a pretty sweet pedal!
I'd be down with an OC-2.
How about the EHX octave multiplexer?
And doesn't Taylor offer an OC-2 PCB? Or has his shop shut up.
what about some analog delay with 4 3208, maybe modulation, fitting in a 125B? maybe even without modulation.
Taylor does have the "Chopped OC-2", I believe. I was thinking of doing the full circuit. Main difference is input/output stages from what I saw. So, it wouldn't be copying his project. Think it is too close, though?

I think the input and output is the same and all it's doing is dropping the two octaves down section...
He no longer has it listed as a project though and you're doing the whole thing rather than cut down, so, why not :)
I don't know if the chopped version or octave multiplexer would be etchable though.
And while of no interest to me, there is always the classic Blue Box.
Full OC-2 is the way to go in my opinion! I want both octaves! :)
..is B.K.Butler tube driver on the list?
My suggestions : the vintage mxr enveloppe filter an the DOD fx20 phaser .
...and another transparent overdrive..the MAXON OD820...!!!!
How about some reverb tank thing. I know bean wont touch tubes, but im sure he could conjure up something.
Maybe something low voltage with a pump
what about a ds1 with board mounting pots?
I would REALLY like to see an MXR Distortion II with either 18VDC operation or a charge pump. 8)
