I love the Uproar. Is there a Shiba drive pcb out there?

Thanks!

I'm building an UPROAR. The diodes mentioned are for D1 - D4: http://www.madbeanpedals.com/projects/Uproar/docs/Uproar.pdf

Can you tell if these diodes are right?

They should be fine -- you'll get more distortion with the lower clipping threshold, but clipping dodes are almost never "wrong." Just "different." One thing I might do, however, is socket R13. If you find the germanium position to be a bit extreme, bumping up that resistor a little would give you the opportunity to tone it down some.

Thank you very much!

It's a version of eTools for iOS before iOS5.0 with a little simple interface and full fuctional. (If You have iOS5.0+ look at eTools)
eTools Legacy is a powerful virtual toolbox which combines a lot of useful reference materials with electronics tools (calculations, conversations, coding/decoding, etc) in one application in your iOS family devices. Professional or hobbyst can easy recive most of necessary informations or calculation results at some simple finger touches.

Can you tell if these diodes are right?

Does anyone know where I can sub a 1n34a diode with? I ran out of them  

Let me know!
Thanks.

Great!
Thanks. Learning every day.

Hi electromagicians!

I want to build these pedals but the partslist is not clear about what type of cap to use.
Could someone specify (film, ceramic, silver mica, elco or tantalum)?

It's better specified here, but still not specified per part:

Thanks!
