La Vache, More Volume and gain?

[DrStantz]

Built a La vache, any way to beef it up with the volume at 1 it's still got unity gain not much of a boost, I need more power!!!

The sunking has spoiled me I think, but anyway how would I tweak it to beef it up?

Try reducing R4 to 100R.

[DrStantz]

Thanks! I'll try that

possibly increasing R2 may help, but probably not as much as changing R4. you could try something like 3.9M or 4.7M.

this circuit likely works without R2 altogether, i think it's main purpose is temperature compensation.

the 100ohm resistor at R4 is tasty. I dig it!
