stayed home with the kids today and threw this together because I had a recycled enclosure from another project that was ditched and the holes lined up perfect so slow gear it was. Hit a snag on a couple bad 2sk30a jfets and looking at the specs of the original jfets landed on a 2n5485 and got a great range and smoothness to the envelope. what a cool effect really makes me want to put my attack decay board together.

Very nice! Good to know with the subbing of trannies!

Good!
I tried to build it on veroboard layout from Sabrotone, but for some reason it sounds clean without any effects though the voltage are ok. I replaced even some transtistors bought from two different shop. But I never find any mistake.

Sharp as always. If you like this, you'll love the attack decay.

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

Next order from smallbear I will probably order a couple but for the time being this is good to go.

Thanks Jimi, I gotta order parts for that. Also I have to do my layout for the artwork too as now I'm doing that first instead of after the pedal is done. I feel like I have a legit workflow now.

Digging your wiring on the past few builds, looks killer. 

Jimi is right, Rust Bucket is the better version of this effect.  You will definitely love it if you like this one.
