Nice!

Really enjoy reading about the circuit development.

If I understand what you're trying to do, I think you would need an envelope detector or something similar.

You might want to take a look at Aleph Null's One Chip Pony circuit here:

Yeah, take a look at this:



Vin would come off of the output of an envelope detector.

You could put a pot/trimmer in series with the R resistors to adjust the threshold (with pin 2 going to the inverting input of the opamp), or even replace one or both resistors with a pot/trimmer.

Are you looking for something that is on/off, or something more gradual?

You could run the output of an envelope detector into a comparator if you want on/off.

Have you looked at the Seamoon Funk Machine?

It's got an envelope detector going into a transistor.

Nice! That's a really cool circuit.

I've always liked small boards in large enclosures.

How do you like the sound with the LFO going?



btw, when you first posted this, I don't think it showed up in my 'Unread Posts'?? Just thought I'd mention it, I don't know if others have had that happen.

I started using an image hosting platform called 'Pixelfed' and I thought I'd mention it here.

Pixelfed is free, open-source, and decentralized; no ads, no content manipulation algorithms, and no third party analytics or tracking.

You can take a look here:

I've been using it for a few months now, and I'm really happy with it.

Proof of concept:

May I suggest a gravy-themed project?

"I just built the Madbean WarmGravyBoat, it's awesome!!" 

Consider it done.

Woohoo!!

I don't know if this helps or not... but Boss used to stand up lots of resistors.

This is a DM-2.

There are some more pics here (and text in Japanese): http://www.matsumin.net/diy/bunkai/BOSS_DM-2/index.html

Yes, it looks like you could just eliminate it. IC4 is there only for the second octave. Disconnecting IC4 from IC3 would not cause a problem.

You could also remove the parts in the second octave part of the circuit, C18, IC5, etc.

Cool! Your demos are always very well done. The way you have the texture control and the clipping set up is very interesting.

If you want something with a BCE pinout, try a 2sc828 or 2sc1815.

A while back someone posted on here that he was... taking a class where he was learning to write software that would read documents? ...something like that. Anyway, he tallied up all the components used in madbean projects. I couldn't find the thread but I saved this. It should give you some idea of what values are the most common:

That sounds fantastic. It's nice to see someone put this much thought into a reverb.
