just another build report from a retrograde...this one was in my mind to build for about 3 years.







and there it is with some friends. the egodriver, an aion bluesbreaker + tubescreamer, re-housed coolcat tremolo and a epbooster+dynacomp

weekend work, very nice pedal
missing the on-Z-on toggle switch (now ordering from germany)

i have a jrc4558D and DD (more gain) to test this thursday on the rehearsal room.

there goes some photos

So here it is an half madbean project.
The idea was to combine a comp and a boost in one single box. Why? Because i wanted to!

Simple project, the dynacomp project from tonepad and the fatpants v1

Some pics for the people

the team

Hi!
I have one of the old project files, there was any version with a single sided PCB for etching? Does anyone have it?
Thanks,
Luís

here's my second madbean build!
first one here http://www.madbeanpedals.com/forum/index.php?topic=2664.msg22020#msg22020
i got the board done @ a store in Lisbon and did my best to get all correct parts (had to order the diodes from the usa to pt).
sounds just great!

first try


pcb work


middle work



all ready for the pcb wiring


before closing!


happy board

ok, my first completed madbean peadal.
great stuff! thank you all

made the pcb at a small electronic store in Lisbon.
some componets already had from previous projects, box, swtich and stuff all from musikding
the other project (hope soon here) is the, guess what!, the aristocrat. also a octafuzz coming up

decided to do the layout like the ocd, not the kind of pacient guy for this stuff. Instead of fulltone you can read 'Luistone' (yeah, i'm Luís!)

and now, some pictures!

put all components ready to solder


cleaning pcb


drilling and testing


box painting


pcb populated


wiring


final work and working


after some troubleshooting, it's working (bad capacitors?)
comment =)

Ok, first post after first project!

Built the EgoDriver, checked the components and the wiring.
All pots respond ok and hp/lp as well.

Sub part: 1n4148 (1n914) for the 1n34a that i broke.

The pedals sounds with volume ok, but like it's a low battery powered overdrive or fuzz.
The power supply is the voodoo labs pp2 and checked 9v ok.

Some photos (hope soon in the build reports!)
