Nice clean build!

Absolutely, and occasionally those 3 pole switches do die and to replace one mounted to the board you have to desolder it from the board which is a bit of a pain. I'll try my luck!

Mounting the footswitch to the PCB is good because a) it reduces a lot of the wiring involved with a true bypass switch, and b) saves you having to work out a way to seat the PCB in the case without it shorting on anything.

Thanks for the kind words guys.

You are welcome to post any DIY related builds, of course! This one looks great...that knob...mother of god!

Well... I think the knob suits the name also

My apologies if it's uncool to post builds from other companies?

Anyway, I found this guy from France who's business is called 'My Audio Lab'. Ordered a couple of his guitar effects PCBs. Built this one today. It's a SHO style boost (hence the name). Sounds good!

No problem. My background is more in building studio gear than pedals, and scales around dials is a must in that world! Seemed natural that I would move that over to pedals too!

This website is your friend for scales around knobs: http://stiftsbogtrykkeriet.dk/~mcs/Scale.html

Here's an egodriver I built for a mate that I changed slightly for bass (bigger in/out caps).

Poor form I know, not having a guts shot. I'll snap one ASAP

You're a champion, madbean!

Has anyone successfully substituted any values to get just a tiny bit more low end out of the egodriver? I'm digging it on bass, but just the tiniest bit more low end extension would be awesome!

Thanks madbeaners!

Tidy work. White PCB looks Coooool!

Nice work!  The only thing I'd be worried with is the board shorting when the box is closed as it looks unprotected?

Covered the inside of the lid in insulating material 

Nice job!  Well done on the PCB etching job, very clean.  The decal looks great too.  I'm gonna have to give decals a go, they just look so sharp when done right.

I've got many many tips regarding using lazertran decal. Send me a PM with your email and I'll go into more detail

Thanks so much for this project, sounds fantastic

I etched the board at home... everything was pretty strait forward. Decal is just a waterslide type.





Look forward to building some more of your projects!
