Cascadia Overdrive (Madbean LaVache) w/ Demo

[Stomptown]

Hey guys, here is my latest build. It's a Madbean LaVache with an added 3P4T daughterboard that I designed in Eagle. I designed the daughterboard so I could add a tri-colored LED, which indicates which clipping mode is engaged. I'm glad I finally got around to putting this one together. I really like the way this one sounds and will be adding it to my board before my next show!

Here are the pics:







And the Video demo:

If anyone is interested in the daughterboard, I shared this project through Osh Park. You can order them in sets of three here for about $9 per set:

Or you can etch your own! To learn more, check out my build doc here:

Nice build and cool mod board.

Great build and demo mate, sounds as good as it looks. What have you done with the top of the footswitch, looks roughed up, all the best, Matt.

Very. Damn. Cool. Love the mod and the pedal is just badass.

Thanks! I ran over it with an electric palm sander. Honestly I was trying to sound off a scratch in the enclosure after it was fully assembled and the sander jumped on me and scraped across the top of the switch. After a few curse words it occurred to me that it might look cool if I just sanded it down!

This is awesome. Love that rough-looking etch.

This is awesome. Love that rough-looking etch.

Thanks! I didn't intend for it to come out so rough, but It works well with the design. I usually use PNP blue for my toner transfers and this time I tried laser paper following Pryde's awesome tutorial. I don't think the toner was thick enough for the paper transfer, hence the extreme pitting. I will have to try a different printer next time!

Great work
