Tons of restocks and a few new releases. Plus, a shipping deal for the next few days.

Also, the madbeanpedals Twitter account is no more. I have a BlueSky account now: https://bsky.app/profile/madbeanpedals.bsky.social

Goal was met and exceeded! Thanks, guys.

Jimi, keep us updated.

I sure will. First dialysis treatment was today, it's really helped. Hopefully we can keep going in this direction.

If this is too personal don't answer, but are both kidneys failing? I don't know very much about this.

Oh man, so sorry.

Oh dammit! I'm at the hospital with my wife right now, with kidney issues. Good times.

Shoot man. Is it you or her??

Jeff Rubin (geekmacdaddy) has been gifted a trip to the ER due to a heart attack. He's stable and recovering but has a bit of a road ahead of him. I've launched a GoFundMe for Jeff to help cover some necessities until he can work again. You can find it here:

I sent him some $$ before launching the GoFundMe but I will be putting a things up for sale in the BST area which will all go toward the fund. So, if you don't want to contribute directly, but want whats I gots you'll be doing a good deed

The 9203 @ smallbear are pretty good.

Not quite the 50M off resistance of the specially tuned photocells they used to have, but those have not been available for a while. I've used them in a couple Univibe builds with success.

After that, I am full time back to building all these prototypes and getting some new stuff out before the end of 2024.

It's my Xmas Wish that the Microsynth/Bass Microsynth board is in there.......

 

The Microsynth and Openhaus are the first ones I'll work on. I have a bunch of others in progress but I wanna finish those first.

I'm uploading 9 docs tomorrow and the remaining 9 by Friday.

What was originally supposed to be the Sept. release is now the Nov. release because I do not know how to calendar. Docs will be going up starting tomorrow with a release target date of this weekend.

Hola Madbean,
Super pumped for the next set (finally MN chips are readily available!). Any update on timeframe for releases? I know you are super busy and am very appreciative of all the hard work.

Take care,
DJB

Yeah sorry. Everything is in a bit of a holding pattern right now. But, I expect to finish this release up within a week or two. Appreciate everyone's patience.

There's no gain applied at IC1 since there is no voltage divider off the inverted pin. So, my best guess is that this application is for low frequency attenuation. It definitely is weird.

C3 is indeed 100nF. I just forgot to change the library part. It is a strange arrangement but it's correct.

Which lead to a question: @madbean, any issue with capturing & sharing madbean pedals?

Of course not. If I had one I'd do the same.

Is this like September September or Madbean September-ish?

Okay, we're on beantime now. Still working on project docs. It's a haul but we'll see how far I can get over the next few days.

Totally random too... but the shopping list for the sludgehammer has 4x 2u2 electrolytics listed (at least in the previous rev of the doc), but only actually needs 3

I was just looking through my components for a 2.2uf capacitor for a different project and got lucky with this typo to have a spare laying around, so I was appreciative of it, but figured if you are revving the doc you may want it up to date.

Thanks for that. There are a few other doc updates that are due so I will get all those taken care of. I'm shooting for Saturday for release. I have 5 projects that are being rebuilt and those are almost done.
