A bass distortion made specially for mister jimillee 

There are separate ins and outs for the FF and TB sides so it's really a two-in-one.  You could easily put them each on separate switches or use a toggle to switch which effect is active.

You can also use a 3PDT or 4PDT toggle to change the order in which they go - FF-TB or TB-FF. Search for order switching on the forum and I'm pretty sure there is a wiring diagram.

Brian, you going to release the whole batch at once and stand back and watch the madness?

Yup, I'm going to take great pleasure in blowing people's minds with the shear volume.

Another fun one.

And some more. Getting pretty closed to finishing up the whole batch. About a dozen left to do.

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.

Do you have any BAT41 or BAT46? Those will work in place of the germaniums.

[...] what is the fet stuff on the left? [...]

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.

Hate that. Funny how things can work even when they are wrong!

I re-stress the 3PDT board with on-board Road Rage.

Is it feasable? 

Yeah, that can be done. I could see this becoming a store product, too.

Yeah, looks awesome. I'm going to kick in a little on their fundraiser. I would wear that thing out.

How 'bout a little Loophole2?

I think we will definitely have a "multi-fx" box contest next year with these as the projects to be used. It would be a lot of fun. I'd even like to do an honorary entry for that!

So basically, if you've seen Juan, you' seem 'em all?

pickdropper wins the Internet for today.

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 

• Cosmopolitan but for 1590B (and keep the board mounted pots).
• Sonic Titan
• Distortion + with pads for common mods and maybe some post boost to help the volume issue.
• Maybe some of the popular ROG circuits, the one Jon raves about Azbache and the supro

Koko

Cosmo: done!
Sonic Titan: Actually, I think I have a layout.

Someone mentioned a Crunchbox. How about one with some hip mods?
