That's a negatory on the dynacomp board unfortunately. I only etched one for myself (then sold to Empires) from the tonepad project files:

Do have spare CA3080 if you need it though.

Hmm. interesting. That circuit is fairly complex, would be tricky to fit on Veroboard in a saltbooster case but I'll maybe have a go at designing a layout if I have some spare time.

Nice one, cheers.
Am borrowing one off my boss this weekend to try out and see if I like it/want one.

I can do the same pedal again for £90 + P&P (£5) though if you were interested. I think individually those pedals can be had cheaper over there from the original guys.

I make them for £70 and £75 respectively.
is the £90 refering to the cost of a dual-drive mix of the two? I'm up for it. Deffinately want gavin's decal on the OCD channel. Maybe a star wars theme on the dls. Would have to work out all the small details later on this evening but im in for sure.

Yeah £90 would be for both pedals in one case. OK, if you come up with some ideas we'll get Benecol to knock you something up.

Just whipped this up. It looks possible in a Saltbooster sized box (mainly because I'm that good).

Well that's the thing, I'm pretty sure you could grab a second hand one on ebay if you were looking for about a 50 spot (although they seem to turn up quite rarely), and you'd get good resale from it, whereas I couldn't really make this for less than that...

I wouldn't wanna rip you off or nowt.

Now don't bite my head orf, but can't you just buy the pcb from tonepad and save so, so much hassle with cuts and jumpers?

I'm a designer. I never pay for other people's work when I can design a solution myself.

just a quickie

without the stuffs

obviously use the original decal of gavin's, that one is just one i found and copied so quality isn't happening
not familiar with the scale of the components either, just a rough draft

also, labeled knobs would be a plus

Labels might be a bit tricky and crammed but I'll ask Tim.

i'm thinking solo's hand definitely needs to be coming through the line, but then turned into black and white, perhaps groping the OCD bubble.

That graphic cuts off right there so it would have to be drawn in. Or a different picture all together

I love it , Haze. When I get the money, I plan on having Mike make me a pedal. I am going to put Wayne's World graphics on it.
