Flatlife

[alanp]

Afterlife compressor, based on John Hollis' Flatline... didn't want to label it Afterlife, dunno why.





Brief bit of excitement when I put the IC in backwards, minor fingertip burn, nothing serious. Replace with a new one (right way around), off it goes. Looked for a pencil briefly for the lettering lines, then figured I might as well make a feature of it given the actual effect it does.

Mostly uploading this to prove that even a hamfisted meatworker like me can do this. It's just fiddly, is all. (Otherwise, quite pedestrian for this board.)

I still haven't dared build a TB looper into a 1590A, so kudos from me!
These things intimidate me more than any of the "expert" level builds

Heh, on the other forum I post on, I've admitted these small builds scare me more than building ring modulators (my personal thread on there is up to 19 pages, it started from my first pedal build...)

Looks cool alan... 1590as are hard

Same here.  I'm still impressed every time I see one of these.  My eyeball/freehand drilling method is not conducive to such intricacies
