This is a BYOC Octave Divider for my friend Mimi, who has been gigging a real one since the 70's, but just doesn't want to take it on the road anymore.  This should work fine for him.

It's a really cool circuit and worth building, IMHO.

That is beautiful. I love that old Mutron look. If I wasn't doing a Lowrider, this would be my first BYOC kit.

Is that basically a white waterslide on a polished metal enclosure?

Thanks Bret.

It is a white vinyl inkjet label on a polished enclosure with an envirotex topcoat on it.

Clean inside and out!

BYOC boards always look a little odd to me. I've never looked into them at all, since I heard they don't ship internationally.

Sweet build!  Love those knobs too... What's the Auxiliary jack for?

Pedal building is like the opposite of sex.  All the fun stuff happens before you get in the box.

It is a clean out.  At least that is what it is supposed to do, I never actually use it.

Nice build. I have an OEM schematic for the Mutron. I've been meaning to do my own layout for some time now. I got to play an original recently and it was a lot of fun.

I thought about doing a layout for it when a couple of my friends asked me to build them for them.  I really wanted to shrink it down a bit, but never got around to it.  If you do it, I'd probably be good for a board or two as I'd like a second one.  It's a wonderful effect.
