Title: Mysterioso SR
Post by: madbean on October 27, 2016, 04:41:15 PM
I ran across this PCB while cleaning out my prototype drawer. I designed this in 2011 but never did anything with it, so I decided to build it up. It's the Blackstone Appliances OD, which used to be a project here many years ago. I've been experimenting with some tolex covering so it seemed appropriate to do a bit of cowboy here. I really like the way this came out! I would have preferred some cream colored knobs but I don't have any cool ones ATM.

Seconded. Pure awesome.
You're right, though. Needs cream knobbies.

Thanks guys. I did two enclosures in this tolex. This one used superglue and the other spray adhesive. Can't decide which method I hate more :)

Anyway, this build gave me a great idea for an MBP project: a dual channel OD where one side is a single channel Blackstone and the other side is my Danger Zone project (both being similar but slightly different flavors of the same circuit). I'm gonna work on that a bit.

I would love to dig through the prototype drawer, see what treasures lie in there :)

Love the title of that picture  :D

The tolex is really nice, good "cowboy" feeling with it indeed!

It looks totally awesome! Though I agree cream knobs would look even better.

I've been curious about the Danger Zone lately, how would you compare the two soundwise?

the look of this is georgeos. First I thought it might be an etch. You really managed to get the corners nice and smooth too, which is the hardest part for me. especially on such a small enclosure.

I tolexed the sides of a 1590b with my brother once and we used spray glue. After some month (in the summer) the tolex started moving and didn't stick all too well to the enclosure any more. I think super glue might be more effective here.

and dude, that is one big chunk of protos. I can't imagine how many things you must have designed, layoutet and fabricated over the years without it seeing the light of day after all. incredible.

Might be a cool project. Could you include an option to add the extra inverters of the cd4049ube in parallel

Nevermind I just realized that this being two circuits combined that all of the inverters would be used

That is an absolutely exceptional looking pedal you've got there! I'd love to read a guide on how you did the enclosure if you feel like it  ;)
