ICBMs are lovely - was about to get one when I lucked out and bought my original.

Yes, but let's talk about ME shall we?

Darren Hayman of Hefner fame did these for me (we're doing a bit of barter system malarkey in exchange for a pedal or two), so this should be the first of a bunch more images I can use on my website/promo materials etc.

You told me the going rate was fifty designs to the freebie pedal. Slag.

haha.. I've been trying to build you pedals more often mate, honest! He offered to do something in return for a pedal (quite graciously as I would have built him one for free as I'm a fan) and I saw some things in this style on a recent release I liked and voila.

Plus I figured you wouldn't really want to be burdened with even more Graphic work.

This is the madbeanpedals.com DirtBagDeluxe project board.

It's a close copy of the Deluxe Memory Man circuit reconfigured for use with MN3005s (hard for find these days and fakes abound) or V3205s (Cool Audio MN3205 clones, in production) which I've build mine for. There were some parts subs that had to be made for the V3205 version which weren't confirmed by the time I'd started, so I had to do some desoldering which was a bit painful on a 2 sided board - but no matter because it's done and biased now and sounds pretty fabulous.

I done built myself an Analogue Delay (by numbers, but whatev's).

When Benecol gets back from his jollies he's going to design me some lully graphics in this sort of style (but MORE BETTER)

sometimes ICdem2. generally after my food has had time to digest.

also:

HLYSHT, that's busy business. how much for one of these (assuming you make more than one)?

I only ordered 1 PCB so i couldn't do another - the chips are also expensive and it's 6 hours to populate the board!

You'd be better with the Behringer vintage time machine, in fact im keen to compare them

I'd be interest in hearing your thoughts the comparison between the 2 mike if you do manage a demo

sorry for the off topic, but how hard was it to find all the parts for the pedal? are they available in the euro shops like musikding?

I've done some pcb and breadboard pedals in december, and really enjoyed building them, and pcbs seamed way easier. I've also got 1 or 2 builds planned. I think i might be able to the memory man if i don't try to make it to fast.

No problem at all, I'm happy to talk about anything and everything in this thread. I got all the chips (v3205s included) from Small Bear along with the trimmers (be careful you order the right ones, I didn't and had to use the vertical ones in my stash, some diodes and the board mounted pots. Everything else I had in my huge pedal parts collection. It's a huge project and involves about 10 hours of soldering, but now it's done I'm completely made up with it:

Other things I cranked out last night:

It doesn't show but I've found the PERFECT Fiesta Red paint

And I finished and tested (worked first time) this board for the Current Lover from madbeanpedals (it's a Deluxe Electric Mistress inspired circuit). Sounds lushtimes.
