Deluxe Overdrive

[Hangingmonkey]

Thought id share some completed pics of my current project.
Its 3 od pedals and an SHO boost - marshall guvnor, voodoo labs sparkledrive and the rockbox boiling point. All done on vero.
A 4p3t switch is used to switch between pedals and theres an led indicating which od is selected.
The output signal then goes to a SHO boost which is switch offable.
All works apart from the SHO boost but thats a job for another day.

Heres some pics ....

Genius, sheer genius

That is awesome! I love the rotary switch to select the OD. Where did you find the layout (or schem) for the sparkledrive? I had someone ask me to build one for him, and I had to decline as I couldn't find a verified layout. Isn't it pretty much an 808 with a clean blend?

Great idea with the rotary ... and of course congrats on finishing such a massive undertaking.

The panel layout/graphic is also super well-done. It's a lot of controls to get everything so clearly labeled.

Very nice! Reminds me of some kind of hi-fi gear from the 80s.

Thanks for your kind words.
I have read that the sparkledrive is similar to a ts but i wouldnt know from the schematic, im still learning about electronics. I used the vero layout on tagboard effects and it worked fine without any problems.
Im gonna test this out properly today, had to run it at real low volumes as i finished it at 3am last night.

Thanks! That blog is pretty extensive. I guess I need to buy a pallet of vero board
